Everyone is overwhelmed by the unchanging beauty of Anne Hathaway at the age of 40. Not long ago, the “Disney princess” also caused a storm on online forums when she appeared on the red carpet of this year’s Cannes Film Festival.

Born in 1982, Anne Hathaway grew up in a family with an artistic tradition when her mother was actress Kate Hathaway.

When mentioning Anne Hathaway, the public will immediately remember the title “Disney princess” thanks to her leading role in The Princess Diaries . The beauty’s name only really broke away from this title and reached new heights with success thanks to her leading role in Love Women Like Brands alongside famous actress Meryl Streep.

 Despite her career success, Anne Hathaway has a love history filled with “bitter consequences” when she constantly falls in love with “bad guys”.

Reputation shaken because boyfriend cheated

In the Hollywood entertainment industry, Anne Hathaway is considered a beauty with a remarkable love history with a very long list of boyfriends, all of them top quality. However, the career of the “Disney princess” was also shaken because she was entangled with a fraudulent man.

When she first entered the entertainment industry, Anne Hathaway was rumored to be dating Spider-Man actor Topher Grace. The media said that the couple started dating in 1999 and ended their relationship in July 2001.

Even though they broke up, the two still maintain normal friendships. In 2010, the couple even worked together in the movie Valentine’s Day.

Anne Hathaway and Topher Grace once dated.

From 2001 – 2002, Anne Hathaway continued to be rumored to be dating actor James Holzier. Like their previous relationship, neither Anne nor James spoke out to confirm or deny this relationship.

After that, the famous “Disney princess” was caught up in rumors of being in love with many other men, but she never admitted it.

Anne Hathaway only confirmed it once after meeting and falling in love with Italian businessman Raffaello Follieri. This is also the love affair that causes Anne Hathaway a lot of pain and sadness. The couple met through a friend’s introduction. That was in 2004, then the “Disney princess” was only 21 years old.

Anne Hathaway and Raffaello Follieri – the man who made the “Disney princess” career in trouble.

On their first date, the Italian businessman was more than an hour late, causing the actress to leave angry. But after that, this man showed his gallantry by sending Anne Hathaway many roses and apologizing in a very charming Italian accent.

Raffaello Follieri used Anne Hathaway’s name to commit fraud.

Follieri’s romance and sweetness made Anne Hathaway “fall” immediately. However, during 4 years of dating, this man took advantage of Anne Hathaway’s name to increase trust in business.

Accordingly, Raffaello Follieri used investors’ money to fund games and luxury items for Anne Hathaway. Raffaello Follieri’s elegance and generous spending caused the “Disney princess” to be misled.

The consequence of that fraud was that Raffaello Follieri was sentenced by the court to more than 4 years in prison in 2008 for 14 crimes including: Fraud, property appropriation and money laundering. Among the most notable victims of money fraud by Raffaello Follieri is former US President Bill Clinton.

The fact that her boyfriend was suddenly sentenced to prison for fraud of course had a great impact on Anne Hathaway’s image.

When her boyfriend was prosecuted, the beauty had to return all the expensive jewelry that Raffaello Follieri had given her. After 10 days Raffaello Follieri was arrested by the FBI at his home, Anne Hathaway also severed the relationship between the two.

Anne Hathaway admitted to the media: ” It was a bad relationship, an embarrassing breakup .”

Love is likened to destiny

After that stormy love affair, Anne Hathaway quickly met and fell in love with her current husband – Adam Shulman. The couple first met at the Palm Springs Film Festival in 2008. They had feelings for each other at first sight.

However, because she was still affected by her previous love, it was not until June 2009 that Anne Hathaway officially nodded to accept a date from Adam Shulman.

After 4 years of dating, Anne Hathaway and Adam Shulman held a private wedding in September 2012 on the California coast. Sharing in the British newspaper Harper’s Bazaar, Anne Hathaway said: ” From the second we met, I knew he was the true love of my life .”

Adam Shulman is the owner of the jewelry brand James Banks Design. Before starting his own business, Adam was also an actor but not as famous as his wife.

On March 24, 2016, the happy couple welcomed their first son and named him Jonathan Rosebanks. At the end of 2019, the couple welcomed their second son, Jack.

When the couple had lived together for a long time and had two children together, the public suddenly realized something very coincidental. Specifically, on a forum, netizens found something in common between Anne Hathaway and Adam Shulman and the great writer William Shakespeare and his wife.

Accordingly, many people noticed that Adam Shulman – Anne Hathaway’s husband – has many features that are very similar to William Shakespeare. Even when compared, the two are similar as if “from the same mold”.

Anne Hathaway and Adam Shulman are compared to the great writer William Shakespeare and his wife because they have many things in common.

Not only that, the most special thing is that William Shakespeare’s wife is also named Anne Hathaway. William Shakespeare’s wife is 8 years older than this great writer and is the “muse” in many of his works.

The public also quoted a quote expressing William Shakespeare’s deep love for his wife: ” This life is too short to love you only once. I promise to find you again in the next life .” This statement reminds the public of the love affair between Anne Hathaway and her husband.
