Penn was recently profiled by The New York Times , where he discussed his humanitarian work, his new film "Daddio" alongside Dakota Johnson , and his love life. When discussing his status as a single man, he revealed he was "thrilled every day."

“I’m just free,” he said. “If I’m going to be in a relationship, I’m still going to be free, or I’m not going to be in it, and I’m not going to be hurting. I don’t sense I’ll have my heart broken by romance again.”

He shed a light on the dynamics he has with his exes, revealing that he has a good friendship with Madonna, whom he was married to from 1985 to 1989. “It turns out it’s a lot quicker to repair a friendship after divorce if there are not kids involved,” he explained. “It took Robin and I quite a while. There was a lot of drama." Penn and Wright were married from 1996 to 2010, and share kids Hopper and Dylan. “Much more important to repair it if there are kids involved, but no easy swing, right?”
