In a recent interview, 59-year-old actress Robin Wright opened up about her decision to leave the USA for England.
“It’s liberating to be done,” the House of Cards alum told The Times. “Be done with searching, looking and getting 60 percent of what you wanted.” Robin revealed she decided to move a few years ago after meeting her boyfriend, Henry Smith.
The Princess Bride actress, who was born in Texas and raised in California, said, “America is a s—show.” She and her British-born Australian boyfriend are renting a property on the English seaside. “I love being in this country,” she said of England. “There’s a freedom of self here.”
“People are so kind. They’re living. They’re not in the car in traffic, panicked on a phone call, eating a sandwich. That’s most of America. Everything’s rush, competition and speed,” Robin continued. The Here actress added that her decision was also influenced by the noise of Los Angeles. “Everyone’s building a huge house, and I’m just done with all that — I love the quiet,” she said.
