May 24, 2024 Sienna Miller, 42, is reflecting on the media frenzy that surrounded her while she dated Jude Law, 51.
"It was like that. Every single day was like that and it's so surreal to look back and imagine or even to look back sometimes and see pictures of the amount of people that were there in my life all the time and I don't know what that - I do know what that does to you. It makes you go completely mad, which is ideal for them. The more you spiral, the better it is in terms of selling papers and that English thing of just wanting to tear people down and it felt so celebratory and I was also so madly in love and it was in many ways the most exciting moment."
They began dating in late 2003 after meeting on the set of Alfie and got engaged on Christmas Day in 2004. She wound up calling off the engagement after news of Law's affair with his children's nanny broke in 2005; the former couple ultimately broke up in 2006, but they later dated again from 2009 to 2011.
"I just started working and I was in a big film and in love with this idol and very, very happy, but the flip side of it was so dark so quickly. You learn so much about yourself through that experience, but I feel very lucky to kind of still be here, which sounds dramatic. I think that it can incur just madness and chaos. It is chaos. You are dealing with aggression and violence and you are a piece of prey and you're being hunted every day, so you are paranoid. It was just an ouroboros of kind of mess, and then, you know, a lot of chaos personally with our relationship and I think everything fed into itself and it just became this very unmanageable energy and I see other people who went through it, and didn't kind of come out the other side as well, so I'm quite proud,"
