Helena Bonham Carter and Rye Dag Holmboe met at a wedding in 2018. The Norwegian writer and art historian is fully 21 years her junior, but Helena herself seems to feel zero weirdness about the age gap: “Everybody ages at a different rate. My boyfriend is unbelievably mature. He’s an old soul in a young body, what more could I want? People are slightly frightened of older women, but he isn’t. Women can be very powerful when they’re older.”

What romance lesson would you give your younger self? How old were you when you found love?
