"America is a s---show," she said in a new interview with The Times. "There's a freedom of self here. People are so kind. They're living"

Robin Wright has a new country to call home — and she isn't regretting her decision to move in the slightest.
In a new interview with The Times, published on Sunday, Aug. 31, the actress, 59, shared that she and her boyfriend, architect Henry Smith, are renting a home on the English seaside.
"It's liberating to be done," Wright told the outlet. "Be done with searching, looking and getting 60 percent of what you wanted."
The House of Cards alum, who was born in Texas and raised in California, was candid about wanting to get out of the U.S., telling the newspaper: "America is a s---show."
"I love being in this country," she added 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."

According to the Forrest Gump star, her decision to move was partially 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. And I've met my person. Finally," she added, referring to 52-year-old Smith.
Wright recalled meeting her now-boyfriend — and joked that they had some choice words for each other the first time they crossed paths.
According to the model, she was sitting in a pub at the time, and asked a man if she could feed his dog when the man directed his attention to her now-boyfriend.
"He goes, 'No, it's not my dog, it's his dog,' " she recalled of their first meeting.

"Henry was standing at the bar, 6'2", and he put his pint down, came over to me and grabbed my shoulders," the Here actress recalled. "He goes, 'Who the f--- are you?' And I said, 'Who the f--- are you?' And that was it."
"He is a sweetheart and just a good, decent adult. He's a man," she continued of Smith.
According to The Times, Wright said it was "so relaxing" to be "seen and loved for who I am" after she began her relationship with Smith.

"That's exactly what I wanted," she shared. "I'm turning 60 and I'm, like, 'Is this it?' I love being alone and I've done that many times. But I'm, like, 'I want to grow old with somebody, and travel and see the world.' "
The Princess Bride actress was previously married to Sean Penn from 1996 to 2010. The former couple share two children: daughter Dylan, 34, and son Hopper, 32.
Wright later wed Clement Giraudet in 2018, before filing for divorce from the fashion executive in the summer of 2022, citing irreconcilable differences. She also had a brief marriage to the late Santa Barbara actor Dane Witherspoon from 1986 until their divorce two years later.
