Single Sean Penn set to ‘lend a hand’
BONO step aside – there’s another A-list humanitarian ready to take the over-inflated ego award.
For after two failed marriages newly single Oscar-winning actor Sean Penn now has enough spare time to sort out world peace.
Renowned political activist Penn, 49, who was involved with aid efforts in New Orleans and Haiti, recently split with wife actress Robin Wright, the mother of his two children, daughter Dylan, 18, and son Hopper, 17.
Penn, who had a brief marriage to pop star Madonna in the Eighties, says he is relieved to be alone.
“For 20 years I was in a relationship with Robin and 18 years with children,” he tells Vanity Fair.
“I didn’t have time to commit to anything for real in places like Iraq, except to denounce the war. But now I’m single I can lend a hand.”
