Charlie Hunnam Bio & Age

Charles Matthew Hunnam was born on April 10, 1980 in Newcastle upon Tyne, England to William “Billy” Hunnam and Jane Bell. The Hunnams were a family of modest means. Hunnam’s father, Billy, was a scrap metal salesman, while his mother, Jane, was a ballet dancer and business owner. Hunnam’s childhood was not free from controversy. His father abandoned the two-year-old Hunnam, his older brother William and their mother forced her to raise her alone. In hindsight, Hunnam later admitted that his mother “did a very good job” as a single mom.

Their eventual remarriage made Hunnam the second of their four children. He later had two half brothers, Oliver and Christian. When he was twelve Hunnam moved with his mother to the village of Melmerby, Cumbria. She was newly married at the time. As a boy, Charlie Hunnam struggled to read and write. He was later diagnosed with dyslexia, a condition that, among other things, makes it difficult for those affected to read and write. He also suffers from misophobia; a fear of germs.

As an adult he played so much rugby and would often fight with his classmates and eventually get expelled from Queen Elizabeth Grammar School in Penrith, Cumbria. Hunnam was left with no choice but to go to school from home. After graduating from high school, Hunnam decided to attend Cumbria College of Art and Design in Carlisle instead of a regular university. There he studied performing arts and graduated with a degree in Theory and History of Film with a minor in Performing Arts. Hunnam wanted to write and direct his own films.

career

Hunnam’s decision to attend Cumbria College was perhaps not a mistake. The young lad may have just discovered his power zone and wasn’t willing to trade it for anything. While Hunnam’s clowning was looking for shoes on Christmas Eve, they caught the attention of a production manager for the Newcastle Byker Grove children’s show . He later starred in three episodes of the show. Hunnam’s candle had been lit. About a year later, Charlie Hunnam appeared as folk in Russel Davies’ drama Queer. He would continue to appear in What Happened to Harold Smith? (1999), Abandoned(2002), Nicholas Nickleby (2002), Cold Mountain (2003), Green Street (2005) and Children of Men (2006). However, Hunnam’s best days were just around the corner. His incredible performance in Green Street caught the attention of another producer.

The breakthrough came in 2008 when he began appearing on the widely acclaimed show, Sons of Anarchy. He would play Jackson “Jax” Teller on the show for the next six years. Sons of Anarchy was a show about a famous motorcycle club in a small fictional town somewhere in California.

Since then the English actor has appeared in several films and series The Bar (2011), 3,2,1… Frankie Go Boom, Deadfall (2012) and the most popular of all, Pacific Rim. Pacific Rim was released in July 2013 and grossed $411 million worldwide. Were it not for clashes in his program, Charlie Hunnam would have played the lead role of Christian Gray in the popular film adaptation of the EL James novel Fifty Shades of Gray . He appeared in the horror film Crimson Peak in 2015; Alongside Mia Wasikowska, Tom Hiddleston and Jessica Chastain. About a year later, he appeared as Percy Fawcett in the adventure drama The Lost City of Z.Hunnam also starred in the action-adventure film, King Arthur: Legend of the Sword , which was released in May 2017.

Charlie Hunnam’s roles have earned him several nominations and awards, including a Critics’ Choice Television Award nomination, three EWwy Award nominations for Best Actor in a Drama Series, and a PAAFTJ Award nomination for Best Cast in a Drama Series Huading Award for Best Emerging Actor Alive for his role in the science fiction film Pacific Rim.

Wealth (income and earnings)

As of early 2019, the British actor and screenwriter is worth $16 million; much of it must have come from his long acting career. Where all that investment money goes is little known to the general public, but we may only have a hunch. As of late 2016, credible sources believed Hunnam had poured $2.762 million into acquiring a Hollywood mansion from former SiK frontman Tony Clearwater.

Who is his girlfriend, is he married (woman) or is he gay?

Let’s start with the obvious, Charlie Hunnam is taken! yes you heard it The “hot-bodied” star has had his own story of love and breakup, but that doesn’t negate his current happily married state. And in case you were wondering who the lucky woman is, let’s find out together. Charlie Hunnam has been with artist Morgana McNelis since 2005. But Morgana’s portfolio seems too diverse to fit into the artist-only box. She is a top jewelry designer and the brains behind Maison de Morgana. So that you don’t miss the details, she makes rings, bracelets, earrings and necklaces in brass and white bronze. No, she is not a blacksmith as we know her. Come on, art evolves, doesn’t it?

But she wasn’t always so successful, who was? Before starting her own business, Morgana owned a jewelry store with her sister back in 2007. However, the deal was dead on arrival as the launch date horribly coincided with the 2008 economic crisis. Morgana, who wasn’t quick to burn out, had said that while they couldn’t get the company going, experience taught her that in every obstacle lies a seed of opportunity. Impressive! She could also act as a motivational speaker. This seed of opportunity would later become the Maison de Morgana we know today.

While Hunnam may have found love in Morgana, if they ever got married, she wouldn’t be the only woman he’s dated or married. Back in 1999, Charlie Hunnam and his ex-wife, Katherine Towne, met at an audition for Dawson’s Creek. The chemistry was so much more hunnam than ever felt. After just three weeks of dating, the two lovebirds walked down the aisle hand in hand. However, their union barely celebrated its fifth anniversary. Three years later, in 2002, they finally went their separate ways. Hunnam continued with model Sophie Dahl, actress Stella Parker and film producer Georgina Townsley. And just to add, Hunnam is not gay.

height and body measurements

We’re going to state the obvious when we say, “Hunnam’s bodybuild is a model for the male figure.” Did I mention model? Well, Charlie Hunnam had to explore this industry for a short time too. He had the looks, the physique, and the brains. He stands 6 feet 1 inch tall; Weighs 82 pounds and measures 46, 34 and 16 inches for chest, waist and biceps. His shoe sizes are 9 (US), 42 (EU) and 8.5 (UK).
