Hollywood actor Sean Penn, 61, has split from his third wife, Australian actress Leila George, 29, after 15 months of marriage.
TMZ reported that Leila had filed the divorce papers at Los Angeles County Superior Court, just over a year since the couple married.
No further details have been given and it is unclear what has caused the couple to split.
Sean and Leila first met in 2016 on the set of film The Last Face, and dated for four years before marrying in a private ceremony at their family home last year.
They do not have any children together.

Talking via Zoom on Late Night with Seth Meyers in 2020, Sean had previously confirmed their marriage saying: “We did a Covid wedding.
“By that I mean it was a county commissioner on Zoom and we were at the house with my two children and her brother, and we did it that way.”
The couple had last been seen out in Malibu shopping for groceries in August.
