Life is like a box of chocolates...and Robin Wright Penn is going through a bunch of icky crème-filled ones right now. Or something like that.
The Forrest Gump star and soon-to-be former Mrs. Sean Penn opens up in the November issue of Redbook about her pending divorce from her Oscar-winning hubby and the new life that awaits her and the couple's children, daughter Dylan, 18, and son Hopper, 16.
"It never [feels good]," she says of the uncoupling, which has been playing in the tabloids after several unsuccessful attempts at reconciliation.
"Yes, it's divorce; it's a given that it will be public. But...it's so disrespectful. 'You're an actress, you owe us this?' F--k you is what I say."
And that's not all she says...
"I turned down so many films because I wanted to be a mom that...they stopped offering," she continues. "I gave up a lot for my kids, but I didn't give up... I'm very content with the way it all turned out.
"I have no regrets for my life that has been lived," Wright Penn, 43, adds. "New beginnings, definitely. For me, my career too. My kids are older now."
And for the sake of the kids, she also insists that she plans to maintain a cordial relationship with Penn, who's already rebounding.
The 49-year-old star has been stepping out with 25-year-old Sports Illustrated model Jessica White.
