The South African star was first rumored to be dating Penn when they were photographed ringing in the New Year together in Hawaii. Piers Morgan confirmed the Oscar winners were a couple in a Jan. 18 blog post recalling a conversation he had with Penn at the Jan. 11 Help Haiti Home gala.

“At 2 a.m., Sean came over, and bear-hugged me,” the Piers Morgan Live host wrote. “‘Congrats on a great night,’ I said. ‘And congrats on Charlize too.’ He laughed. ‘She’s a keeper, that’s for sure . . . well, I’ll do my best to keep her anyway!'”
