Charlie Theron thinks marriage is a “divine right” but does not want to wed herself.
The Oscar winning Monster actress is pleased about a vote in New York which allows same sex couples to marry, she’s doesn’t believe the US government is doing enough, as it is still banned in most states.
“It’s a divine right and when government starts to tell us who can love and what is good love, I do have a problem with that,” she said.
“I have a problem with the fact that our government hasn’t stepped up enough to make this federal, to make this legal.”
South Africa born Charlize who split with long term partner Stuart Townsend last year enjoys being in a secure, long term relationship but personally sees no reason to have a marriage ceremony for herself.
“I really want for myself a long-term relationship. And I have been in long-term relationships,” she said.
“That’s the kind of union that I want. The actual ceremony is not something that is important to me — but I see the importance for other people.”
