Charlie Hunnam Slams ‘fans’ For Bullying His Long-term Girlfriend Morgana McNelis

However, the pair did not go public with their relationship until 2014. Once Morgana was confirmed to be Charlie’s girlfriend, she became the subject of online hate from trolls who criticized her looks and questioned the couple’s relationship. But Charlie did not stand for that and defended his sweetheart.

“Even if we don’t know what we’re doing, if we have a problem with a scene or the writing, if I get confused or tired, I always know with Charlie, we’ll find a way through,” Siff said. “There’s something about being able to work with someone like that, which is so gratifying. It’s such a relief to have that sort of constant experience. He’s so sweet and lovely too.” Although Hunnam has made it clear that he misses the peace of mind that comes with recurring, long-term TV roles, his priorities have changed. Over the past five years, Hunnam has made a conscious choice to solely focus on films like Triple Frontier and The Lost City of Z. Whether or not Hunnam will want to return to the small screen at some point in the future remains to be seen, but for now, you’ll probably only be catching him in movies.

Actress Maggie Siff has been making a name for herself with memorable roles in film, television and theater. She had a series regular role on the first season of Mad Men, had recurring roles on Nip/Tuck and Life on Mars, did guest roles on Grey’s Anatomy and Law & Order, and appeared in the feature films Push, Funny People and Leaves of Grass. He added, “It’s very hard to be with an actor. She’s required to share parts of me that she wouldn’t really want to share, of course. And with the certain nature of this role, it’s going to be times 10.” While she has connections to Hollywood through her work as a jewelry designer and, of course, her famous boyfriend, McNelis prefers to keep her personal life out of the spotlight. In fact, McNelis’ relationship with Hunnam was kept under wraps for over a decade and was only revealed to the public after the pair had been together for many years.

But after Clay murdered Piney because the other man knew the truth about Clay’s many dastardly deeds, including murdering Jax’s father, another founding member of the club, Opie was simply hollowed out. Other than Teller, fans enjoyed notable main characters like Gemma Teller Morrow , Clay Morrow , Dr. Tara Knowles , Kip “Half-Sack” Epps , and Opie Winston . Sons of Anarchybecame FX’s highest-rated series in network history. After the series finale in 2014, producers launched a spinoff series, Mayans M.C., that follows a Latino motorcycle club.

Here’s what we can learn from Charlie Hunnam and Morgana McNelis’ everlasting love:

Some people make it look effortless, but others can’t seem to fake it. Any successful relationship is a true partnership in which both parties feel heard and respected and if there’s one thing that hasn’t changed in their 15 years together it’s that Charlie Hunnam will always have Morgana McNelis’ back. “They’re in such a disconnected place from each other right now,” she says. “At the end of Season 5 we saw this incredible disillusionment, on both of their parts, for the other person.” She cites the betrayal Jax felt about Tara attempting to make sure Wendy got custody of their children should something happen.

He ended up getting killed the week after I left Oakland, right before we started shooting. And so I got this necklace to wear as a memorial for him. But also the whole aesthetic of that character, literally Jax wears the jeans and the shoes he wore. I just thought I couldn’t find someone that would be more prototypically perfect than this kid. Although the couple’s romance isn’t out there in the public too much, Charlie hasspoken about his life with Morgana in multiple interviews over the years. “I try to keep the romance on the reg,” he toldPEOPLEat the 2017 Toronto International Film Festival.

Of course, family comes before film, but Hunnam had a complicated relationship with his dad. His father was a scrap-metal dealer who had a tough reputation in Newcastle, the English town where Hunnam grew up. But his parents divorced when Hunnam was young, and his dad wasn’t around often.

Sons of Anarchy hooked fans in for seven seasons from 2008 to 2014 and helped push star Charlie Hunnam to super stardom. Gearing up for a darker season after losing two of the show’s main characters, Clay Morrow and Tara Knowles, SOA season 7 is expected to be full of vengeance and mayhem. Hunnam, who plays Jax Teller in the show, has relived his memories, with his charcater’s wife, in the show’s extra feature on the season 6 Blu-ray of “Sons of Anarchy.” So I think it was for me, it’s been a balance of those two things. Of course honoring Tara and their relationship and feeling some of that loss and heartache. But, also really embracing the freedom that no longer having to be a good guy affords Jax.

Maggie Siff Was Glad Her Character Got A Thrilling Send Off, But Found It Traumatic

When Gemma committed her horrifying act of violence, Hunnam joined the rest of the world in mourning the loss of Tara. He was also saddened to see his time on set with Siff come to an end after six years. For example, Hunnam says that he’s always been a big fan of director Michael Noer’s movies, so when he got the chance to work with him on the prison film Papillon, he jumped on it. He doesn’t want to be part of a film unless he’s truly on the same page as the director. He feels like this strategy is serving him pretty well so far.

I love working with him because I feel like when we show up together we are going to find our way through. Even if we don’t know what we’re doing, if we have a problem with a scene or the writing. If I get confused or tired, I always know with Charlie we’ll find a way through. There’s something about being able to work with someone like that, which is so gratifying. It’s such a relief to have that sort of consistent experience.

Likewise, Tara feels betrayed by Jax who isn’t making much of an effort to follow through on leaving Charming. Opie’s death was also a catalyst for Jax, which Sutter expanded upon in an interview with The Hollywood Reporter at the time. “Knowing where I want to take my hero, and knowing how I wanted to get there, the road I wanted to travel, Jax needed that emotional upheaval — that one event that happens in a man’s life that can change LesbianPersonals the course of his destiny.” When the episode, titled “Laying Pipe,” originally aired in the fall of 2012, series creator Kurt Sutter spoke to journalists to explain Opie’s decision to sacrifice himself for a club that had brought him so much pain. “I do believe that some of it was a sense of, ‘Here’s an opportunity for me to go out doing the right thing, to be of best service to my club’ — and also to his family,” Sutter told TVLine.

‘Sons Of Anarchy’ star Charlie Hunnam has been happily in love with girlfriend Morgana McNelis since 2005. Love Island’s Chloe Burrows shares a drunken kiss with Gogglebox star who jokes he’s made her his ‘girlfriend’ . Well, we know that Sons of Anarchy wasn’t exactly the show for character growth and development. It was all about the bikers and the meaty drama there. The relationships were treated as side stories but Jax and Tara were supposed to be the couple we rooted for. By that same token, marriage doesn’t automatically signify a winning relationship.
