The former couple, who used to date each other in 2016 before coming into each other’s relation in July 2020, had previously accepted that they would negotiate the details of their split out of the public court system and use a private judge.
The ‘mystic river’ star who has two adult children namely Dylan and Hopper with ex-wife Robin Wright and was previously married to Madonna, had also previously accepted the fact that he married Leila over Zoom, with the officiant carrying out the proceedings via video link.
He said: “we married during the Pandemic, it means when we planned marriage, there was going on an intense wave of the Virus so we could not arrange wedding ceremony and got married in presence of country commissioner on Zoom and my two children and her brother were also present on the occasion and we married by that way.”
Before their marriage, it was claimed Penn had to “win back” George after their mutual understandings and romance continued on and off till the time they came to the point of permanently parting the ways from each other which immediately encouraged the ‘Flag Day’ star to “work hard” on fixing their bond.
A source said that Leila remained in his life as his partner for a while. They got and lived together for a specific period and then the relationship could not sustain and eventually, she parted the ways. But Sean won her back.
“He realized he had made a mistake at the time when he felt he might lose Leila, he used all possible means to win her back.”
It was during the pandemic that the couple began to live an isolated life away from each other, and it was claimed that helped to strengthen their relationships and reinforce their trust in each other and made them plan their future together.
The insider said: “they again got together during the Pandemic and came close to each other and got engaged, early during quarantine.”
