Charlize Theron and Stuart Townsend Have Split

According to The Sun, the couple mutually agreed to separate.  A friend told the paper, "Charlize is free and single again. Her relationship with Stuart is well and truly over. They just grew apart. It wasn’t always easy because filming often kept them apart for months."

Theron and Townsend were together for more than five years.  Townsend is best known for his roles in The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen, Queen of the Damned and Shooting Fish.  Theron is an Oscar winner for her performance in Monster.
