“I want to have children”: Elle Fanning broke up with Max Minghella after five years of relationship 04.05.2023, 12:40

The 24-year-old actress of “The Great” announced that she is single again. The star broke up with boyfriend Max Mingella. However, El is optimistic about life. She is ready for new feelings.

“I’m a hopeless romantic. I believe in love at first sight. Call me crazy, but I believe these things. I feel like this is my destiny,” Fanning explained.

The TV star still has high hopes for her future, both in terms of starting a family and continuing her acting career. El dreams of playing the wife of Prince Rainier III of Monaco. The image of a movie star has already been embodied by Nicole Kidman. “I’d love to play Grace Kelly in something.” And having kids,” Elle explained to Harper’s Bazaar.

Fanning and the 37-year-old “Handmaid’s Tale” actor began dating after meeting on the set of the 2018 film “Chasing a Dream.” The drama, directed by Minghella, starred the actress as Violet, a Polish teenage girl who dreams of becoming a pop star. That summer, the couple sparked romance rumors when the young people were spotted out and about in London.

Over the years, Fanning has kept their relationship a relative secret. She called him a “good friend” during an interview with Entertainment Tonight in 2019. That same year, the couple made their red carpet debut at the Met Gala and posed for a photo together. Elle accompanied Minghella to the Los Angeles premiere of Babylon last December.

In January, a source assured Us Weekly that Fanning and Minghella, despite their 13-year age difference, are a very strong couple. “The age difference is not a problem at all. El likes how mature and smart Max is. He is a true intellectual with a great passion for art and culture,” the insider said at the time.

According to the source, the matter reached a serious step – a wedding. Friends of the couple expected Max to present the chosen one with the coveted ring. However, the actor was playing for time. “It won’t surprise anyone if Max proposes soon. El would most likely like it too, but he’s keeping those cards with him,” the source said.

Fans of the artist now suspect that Fanning heard alarm bells, and not harbingers of a wedding. It’s quite possible that the Maleficent star was already single when she was spotted at sister Dakota Fanning’s 29th birthday party in February. Elle was photographed dancing on a table surrounded by a shot glass filled with alcohol.

In 2015, El became romantically involved with Zalman Band and dated Dylan Beck a year earlier. Minghella was in a relationship with Kate Mara for four years, and they broke up in 2014, Page Six reports.
