Charlize Theron Dishes On “Next-Level” Encounter With 26-Year-Old Partner

by Damjan

When it comes to celebrities opening up about their personal lives, it’s not often that you hear them share the details of their love or s*x life in such a candid way. But every once in a while, someone surprises everyone with their honesty.

That’s exactly what happened when Charlize Theron appeared on Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy podcast on July 2. The 49-year-old actress wasn’t there just to talk about her new movie, The Old Guard 2.

Instead, she gave fans a rare glimpse into how her dating life has changed now that she’s in her forties - and she didn’t hold back. During the chat, Cooper asked Theron for her best s*x tip.

The question might sound casual, but it caught Theron off guard.

“I almost choked. I am the last person to ask,” she admitted, laughing. After a pause, she opened up more. “I’m sounding very cocky here, but I think it’s because I found this freedom in my forties where I’m like, ‘Oh my god.’ So I just want to say this in perspective. I’ve probably had three one-night stands in my entire life, but I did just recently f----- a 26-year-old and it was really f------ amazing and I’ve never done that and I was like, ‘Oh, this is great, okay.’”

Charlize Theron’s reveal about sleeping with a 26-year-old sparked a playful, unfiltered exchange that felt like a chat between friends.

It was a moment that probably made everyone listening stop what they were doing. Here was one of Hollywood’s most famous actresses casually talking about sleeping with someone literally half her age, and loving it.

Cooper’s reaction was just as unfiltered as Theron’s confession.

“Let me just say that 26-year-old is the luckiest f------ man walking on this goddamn planet,” she blurted out, laughing. “He’s walking different today knowing.”

Theron just laughed off the compliment. “He is for sure not, but thank you,” she replied.

The playful exchange was a perfect example of how relaxed and genuine the conversation felt like two friends catching up rather than a celebrity interview.

Charlize Theron has been single for years, and she’s never been shy about her lack of interest in marriage. Over the years, she’s dated big names like Sean Penn, Stuart Townsend, Craig Bierko, and even Third Eye Blind’s Stephan Jenkins, but she’s never been one to settle down for the long haul.

Instead, she’s focused on her life as a mom to her daughters, Jackson, 12, and August, 9. As their conversation went on, Theron shared how her perspective on casual relationships has changed with age.

She admitted that in her twenties, she never really gave herself the chance to have fun or experiment.

“I sound like I’m sitting here sounding like I do. So when I do, I’m like, ‘Oh, f--- yeah, I should have done this in my 20s,’” she said.

Theron explained that her life back then didn’t exactly leave room for flings or nights out.

“I was married from the time that I was, like, having sex to the time that I had my last relationship,” she said, clarifying that by “married” she meant being in long, serious relationships. “Then I had children. Who has f---- time for dates and shaving and waxing and makeup? And, like, I’ve got two children that have to go to school.”

Charlize Theron shared how she confidently enjoys occasional flings without guilt while prioritizing her daughters.

The actress’s honesty struck a chord with many people, especially other parents who know exactly what it feels like to juggle raising kids with trying to have a personal life.

It’s not glamorous or easy, and Theron didn’t pretend otherwise. She painted a realistic picture of how her days revolved around her daughters and their needs, not on finding someone to date.

But despite the chaos of parenting, Theron said she’s now in a place where she can embrace the occasional one-night stand without guilt.

She’s discovered a confidence and freedom in her forties that she didn’t have before, and she’s not ashamed to enjoy herself when the opportunity comes along.

The podcast episode gave fans a side of Theron they rarely see - funny, relaxed, and unfiltered. A woman sharing her truth, laughing about the unpredictability of life, and admitting that sometimes, it’s okay to do something just because it feels good.

In a world where celebrities often try to present themselves as perfect or untouchable, Theron’s honesty felt refreshing.

She reminded everyone listening that it’s never too late to enjoy life on your terms, and sometimes, that means permitting yourself to let go, try something new, and not worry about what anyone else thinks.
