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.

Admittedly she was never a big star or a big talent, but she was Jenny in Forrest Gump. Weren’t most people at least a little familiar with that one.

Something tells me that she's never been to Montana.

And I've met my person.

What man with balls wants to be referred to as someone's "person."

No one cares what some dumb ass liberal broad thinks. Hope she meets a Muslim rape gang at the daily prayer in the common.
