Sean Penn and Leila George are Officially Divorced
Sean Penn and Leila George were married for over two years: Complete story here!
Sean Penn and Leila George's divorce was finalized on Friday, almost a year after George filed for divorce, citing "irreconcilable differences." Penn, 61, and Leila, 30, got married during the pandemic in July 2020. When George filed to be legally separated from Sean, her papers read, " (their differences) led to the irremediable breakdown of the marriage, making it impossible for the Parties to live together as husband and wife."
Penn and his now ex-wife George had kept their marriage under wraps and only made their nuptial public during Penn's appearance on Late Night With Seth Mayers after a month. "It was a county commissioner on Zoom and we were at the house with my two children and her brother, and we did it that way," the Mystic River actor said about his pandemic wedding.

The Dead Man Walking actor said, "There's a woman who I'm so in love with, Leila George, who I only see on a day-to-day basis now because I f----- up the marriage. We were married technically for one year, but for five years, I was a very neglectful guy." Sean goes on to detail the ways he wrecked their relationship. "I was not a f------ cheat or any of that obvious s---, but I allowed myself to think that my place in so many other things was so important, and that included my place in being depressed and driven to alcohol," Sean confesses.
