Stuart Townsend
Personal life.
Townsend has a brother, Dylan Townsend, and sister, Chloe Townsend, from his father's first marriage to Lorna Townsend, who died in 1994 of a brain haemorrhage.  Townsend has two half-siblings, Hugo and Ella, from his father's second marriage, to Swedish-born Sofia. 
 Townsend dated actress Charlize Theron after meeting her on the set of 2002's "Trapped". The couple lived together in Los Angeles and Ireland. They said they considered themselves married without an actual marriage, with Townsend stating, "We didn't have a ceremony. I don't need a certificate or the state or the church to say otherwise. So no, there's no big official story on a wedding, but we are married.... I consider her my wife and she considers me her husband." Theron split from Townsend when they came back on day two of a planned ten day holiday in Mexico in January 2010.
