| Emma Thompson and Kenneth Branagh on their wedding day in 1989. |
Thompson told the Sunday Times of London that she’s well over the heartbreak at this stage, and even called HBC a “wonderful woman.”
“All blood under the bridge. You can’t hold on to anything like that. I just think… pfft,” Thompson said.
“It’s pointless. I haven’t got the energy for it. Helena and I made our peace years and years ago.”
Thompson wed the Belfast-born actor/director Branagh in 1989, but the marriage ended in 1995 amid claims that Branagh hooked up with Bonham Carter a year earlier.
That relationship fizzled in 1999. Branagh went on to marry art director Lindsey Brunnock in 2003, while Bonham Carter has been in a long-term relationship with director Tim Burton.
Thompson survived the heartache just fine too. She remarried and has a teenage daughter.
