Ethan Hawke's Divorce Promise to Kids

Actor Ethan Hawke has shared a significant promise he made to his children concerning his past divorce from Uma Thurman, vowing never to discuss the split publicly. He reflected that while he envies those with amicable divorces, the public scrutiny only intensifies the inherent challenges of separation for families.

Hawke also offered insight into why actors often fall in love while working together. He described the "imaginative intimacy" of filmmaking as a potent force, creating a dangerous and thrilling environment that can feel like "summer camp" but lacks connection to everyday reality.

His reflections extend to his current family life, having remarried Ryan Shawhughes and welcomed two more daughters. Hawke, who initially didn't plan on more children after his divorce, found a new partnership and embraced fatherhood again, now cherishing his relationships with all his children.
