Ethan Hawke and Uma Thurman are two actors that define '90s Hollywood. So when they separated, it caused a stir. When she spoke to Oprah Winfrey shortly after their divorce, People reported that Thurman said, "you can move on, and you can be lucky and you can seize the moment and you can take one step after another. You bear two children with somebody -– that's not a small thing -– and then you can hardly talk to them."
Hawke has also revealed that parting with Thurman after seven years and two children was really tough. "Success when you're young is really overwhelming. The world felt out of control. And I wanted to stop it from spinning so fast. I thought marriage would decrease my variables or something. I was absolutely wrong," he told Elle in 2013. "There was this discovery that the male brain isn't done until 28. I definitely think my frontal lobe was not finished. I had no business taking vows that would last more than two weeks."
