'09
That’s it. Cancel Christmas. There is no more love in the world. That’s the only conclusion that can be drawn from this announcement – Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins are done! Susan’s representative alerted People Magazine in a brief statement just minutes ago. What. The. F-ck?!? Oh, and they broke up over the summer, too!
One of Hollywood’s most enduring relationships has ended – Susan Sarandon and Tim Robbins have broken up after more than two decades together, PEOPLE has learned exclusively.
“Actress Susan Sarandon and her partner of 23 years, actor Tim Robbins have announced that they separated over the summer,” her rep Teal Cannaday tells PEOPLE in a statement. “No further comments will be made.”
[From People Magazine]
I seriously cannot believe this, but I have to admit, I had a split second thought of “oh, that makes sense.” Only because they haven’t been photographed for a while together, and Susan has been making all of her red carpet appearances for The Lovely Bones either solo, or with her goofy, hunky son Jack.
Jesus. They’ve been together 23 years! They have two sons together too – Jack, who is 20 years old, and Miles, who is 17 years old. So, at least they don’t have little kids, but I’m sure the boys (and Eva Amurri) are devastated.
They were my mom’s generation’s Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward. Sort of. You know what I mean! They were held up as an example of a couple who were making it work in the long haul. I’m seriously floored.
UPDATE BY KAISER: Hey, I’ve noticed that some of of you are talking about blind items that might be about this couple, and I found one from this time last year, via Blind Gossip/D-Listed: “Which acting couple with a bit of an age gap between them is having trouble acting like their home life is going well? One discovered that other had briefly cheated on them, and they have been struggling to work through that betrayal out of the public eye. To make matters worse, there is now the added stress of a child in trouble, as they recently discovered that one of their kids has a drinking problem.” Damn, I hope that’s not them. I don’t want to think of Tim as a douchey cheater, but I feel like there might be another shoe to drop.

This is why I love myself. To hell with a significant other. just time consuming aswell as nothing but compromizing, then in the end all for not. Yeah I’ll stick to loving myself first. At least I amuse myself and if anything goes wrong it is just my fault.

What? No. But they were supposed to be the forever ones… didn’t anyone tell them? They were the proof that there is real love in Hollywoodland, at least some of the time. Dammit.

Wow, what a shame. That’s sad after so long together. Hopefully it was an amicable split and they’re both moving on and happy.
I agree about class acts though – not a bad word or even a mention from either of them.
On a side note I love that red dress in the first pic, but it’s kind of an odd shape on her.

What are you people talking about??? 23 years is a long time, especially in Hollywood. Sounds like a pretty damn succesful marriage to me!
Who knows why they split up, but they’re both adults and seem like reasonable people. Maybe it was just time to go their seperate ways, it happens. No need to stop believing in love.

Good for them. This is how it should be done. No ugly divorce or negative media to deal with. Just a matter of saying of saying this is no longer working, and then move on mutually. Showing class even during a break up. I’m impressed.

Don’t get me wrong, I adore Susan. Wish she hooked up with someone less self-involved than Tim. She was genuine, he’s never been.
Tim’s long been rumored to have been cheating.

Ouch, this one hurts. Susan Sarandon rocks, though I wish she was rocking a bra in the red dress.
There must have been a reason for them making a public statement because otherwise after six months why bother? Hopefully no nasty surprise. They’re still keeping it classy.

This really doesn’t surprise me since they weren’t even married.Maybe they had a common law marriage, but I don’t think so. Susan was always adamant about them not being married, but having the same commitment as a marriage and saying how it works for them. The other coulples besides Goldie and Kurt are married that you all mentioned. There is a difference. I mean even gay couples I know think that there is a big difference b/t marriage and just being together… I don’t know, this just doesn’t surprise me.

Kaiser: You do a diservice to your readers when you use “Jesus” as an exclamation point. Since you are a good writer, I’m certain you could search your vocabulary bank for a replacement to your highly offensive use of the name. One does not have to be Christian to be offended, merely respectful.

Jeez am I the only one who is not surprised? I always thought he probably had a few on the side.. I never thought about it but that was just my impression whenever I saw a picture of them.
As others have said, 23 years is a long relationship, love changes and life is short so you may as well get out there!

@ Guest, then don’t read it! I don’t think it takes away anything, it adds more emphasis to already good writing. I’m an atheist and I’m constantly bombarded with Christianity, how do you think I feel? Just because someone is Xtian doesn’t change someone’s writing for me though. Lots of awesome authors are Xtian and on the other side of the coin, lots of authors, Xtian or not, use “Jesus” and it doesn’t take away anything. I don’t mean any of this to be rude, I just think there should be a bit more tolerance.
/soapbox
On topic, however, this is so sad
I really love them together, my mom used to tell me about them protesting together and they seemed like they shared a lot. 23 years is a long time! That’s, like, my whole life. I hope the rest of us aren’t doomed! Let’s end this awful year!

WHY does everyone assume it is HE that cheated with a Younger woman? I’m SO sick of that! She could’ve very well cheated with an even younger man! Lots of young guys think older women are sexy!

Yeah really, screw 2009. I was over this year months ago. This is so sad! As DrM said, they split 6 months ago and waited until right before Christmas to announce it so it would get the least amount of coverage and be least disrupting to their family. That was smart.

Aw, nuts.
Don’t force me to be the resident optimist.
But, the fairly predictable break-up of 2 celebrities who lead lives completely unlike ours, has zip zero nada correlation with our ability to create lasting relationships.

Sometimes it’s a crap marriage that lasts for decades until one of the partners says “no más” and pulls the plug.
One of my cousins dumped her philandering hubby after 50(!) years. The older he got, the more the old fart ran around cheating. Sometimes you just have to say enough is enough.
