The Crown star Charles Dance, 78, puts on a loved-up display with girlfriend Alessandra Masias, 56, as they attend star-studded lunch at the River Cafe
As an ardent fan of Charles Dance, I must say his life story is nothing short of captivating! From his illustrious career spanning decades to his romantic escapades, there’s always something intriguing about him.
Charles Dance put on a loved-up display with his girlfriend Alessandra Masias in London on Friday.
As a connoisseur of the finer things in life, I’m always keeping an eye on the latest happenings in the world of entertainment. And here’s some intriguing news: In 2020, the esteemed actor, aged 78 and renowned for his role as Lord Mountbatten in The Crown, found himself embarking on a new chapter – a romantic one. His partner this time around? A talented actress, gracefully advancing in years at 56. Quite an interesting turn of events, don’t you think?
At the River Cafe, where Emilia PÃarez held a lunch reception, the duo maintained high spirits while they took photos together during the event.
At the event, Charles affectionately wrapped an arm around Alessandra’s waist and chose to wear black pants, a blue sweater, a tweed coat, a blue handkerchief in his pocket, and a scarf with spots for the occasion.
Simultaneously, Alessandra was radiantly dressed in a long-sleeved dark gray gown boasting elegant pleats on the skirt.
She wore a colourful belt that cinched her in at the waist and showed off her sense of style pairing the ensemble with some knee high boots.

The actress kept her wavy hair untied, adorned with silver ornaments. At times throughout the day, she donned oversized spectacles with elegant frames that enhanced her charming facial traits.
The Game Of Thrones star met Alessandra on the set of his 2020 film, The Book of Vision.
In a different role, the actress was serving as a production manager for a bizarrely historic film that was filmed on-site in both Italy and Belgium.
In this movie, we see Charles portraying dual roles as a physician; one set in contemporary London and the other in 18th-century Prussia.
Reflecting on the movie, I must say that my most memorable moment was undeniably meeting Alessandra. We’ve been a couple for about four years now, and she remains an unforgettable part of my cinematic experience.
In an interview with The Times, he admitted that his joy at meeting her overshadowed the film.
He said: ‘Well, it does a bit. Alessandra’s fantastic. I’m very, very lucky.’
Charles was married to Joanna Haythorn from 1970 to 2004, and they have two grown-up children.



Later on, he was romantically involved with actress Sophia Myles, who was around twenty-five at the time and had appeared in movies like Thunderbirds. However, their relationship ended in 2005.
Charles had connections with the former Gucci model, Shambhala Marthe of French origin, and afterwards, he spent four years with artist Eleanor Boorman in a relationship.
In 2012, they welcomed their baby girl Rose into their lives and got engaged as well, but unfortunately, they parted ways just a few months afterwards.
The actor recently revealed the secrets to his age-defying looks and the brutal way he managers to stay in shape – swimming in freezing cold water and lifting weight.
He often mentions his liking for open-water swimming at Hampstead Heath, a place located in north London, throughout most of the year, as he can tolerate the cold water.
Speaking with The Mirror, he stated, “From March through November, I’ve been doing fine, yet beyond that, around 6 degrees, it becomes too chilly for me. It’s quite frosty, and it takes a while to get warm. However, once you do, you feel fantastic.
Recognizing that his good physique is due in part to genetics, he stated, “I make an effort to maintain a balanced diet and perform various weightlifting routines targeting different muscle groups. However, I don’t engage in bodybuilding.
As I grow older, I find myself needing to focus more on self-care, as my muscles naturally start losing their strength. Of course, compared to a powerhouse like Arnold Schwarzenegger, I’m no match.
Initially, he believed he appeared alright. However, he now refers to his midsection as having ‘love handles,’ which took him aback because he hadn’t anticipated developing such a feature.
