PARIS – American filmmaker Tim Burton and Italian actress Monica Bellucci have decided to end their relationship, according to a joint statement released on September 19.
The couple shared that their separation is marked by “much respect and deep care for each other.”
Bellucci, 60, publicly confirmed her relationship with Burton, 67, in 2023. She was later cast by Burton in Beetlejuice Beetlejuice (2024), the long-awaited sequel to the cult classic Beetlejuice (1988).
