Where is Harvey Weinstein's ex wife? How Georgina Chapman fled Hollywood's most notorious predator
LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Born in London’s Hammersmith, Georgina Chapman is a renowned fashion designer and actor. She was raised in Richmond, a south-west London neighbourhood and is the daughter of Brian Chapman, a co-owner of Percol Coffee. In 2004, shortly after Weinstein divorced his first wife, Chapman began seeing him. The couple eventually tied the knot in December of 2007. Together, they have a son and a daughter.
But Chapman is now dating Academy Award winner, Adrien Brody. The couple has reportedly been dating for almost two years after Harvey Weinstein and Chapman's scandalous marriage ended in divorce in 2017, according to Page Six. The Marchesa designer and 'The Pianist' actor allegedly first crossed paths years ago and stayed pals on the social scene, but their relationship took a romantic turn in 2019 when they both went to the Puerto Rico debut of model Helena Christensen's swimsuit collection.

In her early 20s, Chapman featured in a Head & Shoulders commercial. In 2001, Chapman and former model Keren Craig debuted their apparel line, Marchesa. The name of socialite Marchesa Luisa Casati served as the basis for the duo's fashion venture.
Life after Weinstein
Following the sexual misconduct claims against Weinstein, Georgina said in 2017 that the two were splitting. She reportedly relied on former political staffer Huma Abedin, the wife of disgraced former US congressman Anthony Weiner for support during this difficult time, stated People’s Magazine.
Georgia, after her split with Weinstein, had also released the following statement: "My heart hurts for all the ladies who have endured excruciating anguish as a result of these repugnant acts. I made the decision to divorce my husband. My first concern is taking care of my small children, so I beg for the media's respect at this time."
Red carpet 'couple' debut
Chapman and Brody made their red carpet debut as a couple when they arrived together at the Met Gala in September 2021 and also posed arm-in-arm. PEOPLE had already confirmed in February 2020 that the two were dating and had been "for a while," even thought their red carpet debut came more than a year after that in June 2021. It was Chapman's first relationship, at least publicly, since she filed for divorce from her ex-husband.
In recent news, the pair were spotted leaving the restaurant Giorgio Baldi in Santa Monica, California on Thursday on October 20, and the relationship is still going strong. When they first began dating, a source close to Chapman told PEOPLE that the Marchesa founder found Brody "unusual and interesting." They said, "She finds [him] to be an interesting person with a deep passion for his work that is similar to hers."
