Susan Sarandon wants to set the record straight: she is not quite the cougar everyone thinks she is.
The 66-year-old actress, who has been dating ping-pong entrepreneur Jonathan Bricklin since splitting with her partner of many years, Tim Robbins, in late 2009, doesn’t seem to have a problem with the couple’s age difference, clarifying to Elle magazine that the disparity in years is not as dramatic as everyone thinks.
“People make him out to be much younger than he is – and me older,” Sarandon tells the fashion magazine, clarifying that he is 35, not 33 as the media has widely reported.
Though reports surfaced that she left Robbins for Bricklin in late 2009, Sarandon maintains that she and her cub didn’t hook up until 2010.
