Paul Bettany: having Johnny Depp texts read aloud in libel trial was ‘an unpleasant feeling’

[shangri__la]

Just an idea Paul Bettany, but if you don’t want “unpleasantness”, maybe don’t ever chat with your mate about whether the two of you would murder his wife by “burning” or “drowning” her. https://t.co/lJyaE64ihQ

how did he convince her to marry him when they didn't even date!?

[slaughtermatic]

she really doesnt seem right in the head

[ghostsaddle]

damn, i don't know much about about her but that's unfortunate.

[slaughtermatic]

idk much either other than she grew up in hollywood back in the 80s, so fucked up probably doesnt even begin to cover it.

Omg I just looked it up and that shit is weird.

When he met Connelly on the set of the 2001 movie A Beautiful Mind, both were in other relationships. Their friendship blossomed into romance shortly after the shock of the 9/11 attacks - Bettany has said he realized he was in love with the actress after frantically worrying about her. He proposed to Connelly before they even dated and moved in with her in New York City.

I know it’s weird but it’s also kinda cute.

[celja]

I seriously worry about her.

[buzzybhn]

These texts have been out for years, at this point I have to assume she's also an asshole.

They have one daughter...born in 2011.

Same tbh.

This was posted on Reddit yesterday and someone came through with receipts about her being an asshole. Yes, we can't believe everything we read on the internet ... but the sourced posts were old and Jennifer Connely isn't really a top-of-mind celebrity. She bubbles under, imo, so for someone to rant about her made me think there was an ounce of truth to it.
