Despite being an accomplished actor in the realms of Hollywood by starring in some classics, including Four Weddings and a Funeral and Notting Hill. Hugh Grant’s personal life has always been a lightning rod for controversies, especially his love life and his marriage with Anna Eberstein.
Over the years, the Paddington actor has found himself surrounded by many controversies, especially his relationship with Elizabeth Hurley. But it appears that his relationship with Anna Eberstein is not much different, and there might be another shady reason behind Grant’s decision to tie the knot with her.
Hugh grant allegedly decided to marry Anna Eberstein for his gain
After the Paddington star finally tied the knot with his long-time girlfriend at the age of 57, it came out as a little weird, considering the actor previously expressed his distaste for marriage. But it seems that the reason behind his wedding wasn’t influenced by his passion for walking down the aisle but was because of alleged passport reasons. While speaking with USA Today, the actor stated,
“I didn’t like going through immigration into countries where they’d say, ‘Everyone with a Grant passport, over here, and all the others through there.’ She went through with the nannies. That seemed all wrong.”
However, the actor also went on to express that another reason behind their decision to get married was because of their children. He stated,
“My wife agrees with me that marriage is a pretty preposterous social construct. But when you’ve got three children, it’s a nice thing to do.”
Apart from this, the actor’s relationship with Anna Eberstein suffered another blow after the actor was allegedly cheating Eberstein with his ex-girlfriend Tinglan Hong.
Hugh Grant’s controversial affair during his relationship with Anna Eberstein
Back in 2011, Hugh Grant was in a casual affair with his ex-girlfriend Tinglan Hong and was surprised after becoming a first-time father, as Hong gave birth to his first child. A year after becoming father, his at-the-time girlfriend, Anna Eberstein went on to give birth to his second child.
However, things became more scandalous after the Paddington actor had his third child with Tinglan Hong despite being in a relationship with Anna Eberstein. But despite all the controversies, the actor chose to embrace his fatherhood and reportedly bought multimillion-dollar houses for both Hong and Eberstein during the time of their respective pregnancies.
Apart from his love life, Grant has also been involved in several other controversies over the years. But despite all the buzz surrounding his name, the actor has previously expressed his love for his wife and explained that the reason the actor decided to marry her was because of love.
