Helena Bonham Carter

Helena Bonham Carter, who played several eccentric characters in films, is widely known for her one-of-a-kind and deviant lifestyle. From her fashion choices to her acting techniques, even her choice of relationship has always been different. Helena was never married despite having long-term relationships over the past decades. She once lived with the director Kenneth Branagh for about five years and has not married. In 2001, she met Tim Burton in the set of Planet of the Apes and started a relationship. The two became common-law partners for 13 years until they decided to split in 2014.

As the couple has two kids together, Helena recalled that the experience is synonymous with “divorce” – the grueling pain and adjustment of living arrangements. As to why she has not married anyone is probably a choice she and her partners have mutually made. Probably, Helena thought that it was not wise to make huge investments in a relationship that could eventually go wrong along the way, or perhaps she’s just not a fan of social conformity.
