Ethan Hawke talks about ‘humiliating’ separation from Uma Thurman

After meeting on the sets of ‘Gattaca’, Thurman and Hawke ended up getting married and had two children, Maya and Levon. Their split became a public spectacle in 2005, and while it has been years since the event, the divorce has always remained a hot topic. Hawke recently sat down for an interview with GQ and delved into what went down behind the scenes of their separation. While addressing the kind of coverage their break-up received, Hawke went on about how “humiliating” the entire situation was for him.

He shared that it all felt the same, no matter what kind of coverage the media was providing. He stated, “It’s humiliating. It’s almost humiliating even when they’re saying positive things.”.During the interview, he was even asked about the concept of actors falling in love while working together, to which he replied by saying that it's a risky business. “There’s a certain intimacy to the work that we do. Imaginative intimacy.

It’s such a high. It feels dangerous and thrilling. It turns the temperature up in your life. It can be like falling in love at summer camp. It doesn’t have any connection to the dailiness of real life.

That’s the danger of it”, he shared.
