That would mean Brâncuşi is about the same age as Robbins’ sons Jack Henry, 31; and Miles Guthrie, 28; from his 23-year relationship with Susan Sarandon.

The May-December duo met in 2016 while working at his 40-year-old nonprofit theater company The Actors’ Gang where Gratiela is marketing coordinator and Tim is artistic director.

Robbins and Brâncuşi were first pictured together attending the premiere of his HBO series Here and Now in February 2018.

By November 2019, the brunette beauty could be seen wearing a diamond sparkler on her ring finger while posing next to the Castle Rock actor at the Dark Waters premiere. 

The very next month, Tim and Gratiela attended a NHL game alongside his son Miles and quasi-stepdaughter Eva Amurri with her two children.

In 2010, the 74-year-old Oscar winner discussed her 2009 split with Robbins, which angered fans of the longtime acting couple who never married.

‘People were coming up to me in the street and saying, “I cried and cried when I heard.” Well, I was sadder!’ Susan told The Telegraph.
