Burton was previously in a long-term relationship with frequent collaboratorHelena Bonham Carter, from 2001 to 2014. They share two children: son Billy, 19, and daughter Nell, 15.
During a December 2022 appearance on theTherapy Workspodcast, Bonham Carter, 56,reflected on her “painful” breakup from Burton, which she referred to as a “very painfuldivorce.”
“It was a long-lasting thing,” she said. “That’s the other thing — it’s not that finite. It never ends. Evenif you divorce somebody, it’s a kind of marriage if you have children with them. The relationship has to change. It’s a very complicated thing, how to share the children.”
Today, Bonham Carter is dating art historianRye Dag Holmboe. The actress joked in her interview, “The shortest distance between two people is laughter, not sex. Sex is overrated — but that might say a lot about my sex.”
