Sarandon's rep, Teal Cannaday, confirms the news to PEOPLE, saying: "Actress Susan Sarandon and her partner of 23 years, actor Tim Robbins have announced that they separated over the summer."
Sarandon, 63, and Robbins, 51, began dating in 1988 after meeting on the set of 'Bull Durham.' They have two sons together: Jack Henry, who is now 20, and Miles Guthrie, 17.
During their time together, Sarandon and Robbins became known as much for their activism as they were for their acting. During the 2000s, they became outspoken critics of President George W. Bush and the Iraq war.
Sarandon is currently promoting her new film, 'The Lovely Bones.'
When Tim Met Susan: A Seductive Scene From 'Bull Durham':
SHAME THEY SPLIT, SHAME THEY DIDN'T BELIEVE IN MARRIAGE, SHAME THEY HAD TWO CHILDREN OUT OF WEDLOCK, SHAME PEOPLE DON'T STAY TOGETHER ANYMORE. SHAME THE WORLD IN GENERAL IS GOING TO HELL.
They are better off breaking up. 23 years is a loooonnnggggg damn time to be with the same person. Can you imagine how worn out and boring things must have been. As for sex, that probably got old AT LEAST fifteen years ago. Good for them!
Ah, the intelligence of America, reduced to name calling and misspelling, how we became the dominant species is amazing. You all make me proud to be Homo-Sapien.
Has anyone seen Susans idiot daughter [previous relationship I guess]new rock the vote rap video where she advises people not to "f--k" thier spouse if they do not support Obamacare. Real class act!
I'm always sad when a couple breaks up, especially these two left-wing whack jobs -- they were perfect for each other. I wonder which one is going to keep the autographed photo of...Hugo Chavez. LOL
Probably when you stop wiping your ass with your reich-wing toilet paper of the total douche bags , Reagan-Bush-Bush-Cheney the reason & policies that ruined our country , nation & government ! -What a slop hole freak you are !
