Robin Wright Says Leaving the U.S. for England Has Been 'Liberating': 'America Is a ----show'
People Magazine ^ | August 31, 2025 | Charlotte Phillipp

Robin Wright has a new country to call home — and she isn't regretting her decision to move in the slightest.

In a new interview with U.K. publication The Sunday Times, published on Sunday, Aug. 31, the actress, 59, shared that she and her boyfriend, architect Henry Smith, are renting a home on the English seaside.

"It’s liberating to be done," Wright told the outlet. "Be done with searching, looking and getting 60 percent of what you wanted."

The House of Cards alum, who was born in Texas and raised in California, was candid about wanting to get out of the U.S., telling the newspaper: "America is a ----show."

"I love being in this country," she added of England. "There's a freedom of self here. People are so kind. They're living. They're not in the car in traffic, panicked on a phone call, eating a sandwich. That's most of America. Everything's rush, competition and speed."

According to the Forrest Gump star, her decision to move was partially influenced by the noise of Los Angeles.

"Everyone's building a huge house, and I'm just done with all that — I love the quiet. And I've met my person. Finally," she added, referring to 52-year-old Smith.

Wright recalled meeting her now-boyfriend — and joked that they had some choice words for each other the first time they crossed paths.

According to the model, she was sitting in a pub at the time, and asked a man if she could feed his dog when the man directed his attention to her now-boyfriend.

"He goes, 'No, it’s not my dog, it’s his dog,' " she recalled of their first meeting.

If you read that Wiki page about her, she has had more than a few marriages and appears to be a bit flaky with relationships.

Probably a total lefty nutcase.

Whenever one of these bimbos spouts off, I look up her nude photos. It helps me keep her and her opinions in perspective. BTW, 30 years ago she had a nice rack. :-)

Tell us why you're *really* leaving Los Angeles, Jenny.

I just hope she renounced her US citizenship so she can’t vote.

She won't give up her U.S. citizenship. Believe me, she does not want to pay British taxes.

She believes LA is representative of America.
LA is the $hithole the rest of America doesn’t want to become.

Bet she voted straight Democratis ticket yet won’t blame any of them for the sorry state California is in.

Who’s Robin Wright?

A moron? I mean, move to a country where they can arrest you for defend yourself from being raped. Remember, you can't say anything bad about Muslims, or you'll be arrested!

You should open up a lingerie business called Mohammad's Secret. I think you might start with colorful burqas...

"I love being in this country," she added of England. "There's a freedom of self here. People are so kind.

Until you try to fly your national flag and get arrested for it. The primary decision in the UK is whether to base society on 1984 or A Clockwork Orange.
