Now that’s what you call true love. Hollywood A-lister Sean Penn and the face that can launch a thousand ships, Charlize Theron, have been seeing each other for more than a year. On a few occasions they’ve even had to trash the rumour that they’re engaged.

Well, it seems the couple is there for a long, long run. Why? Answer: Sean P has filed papers requesting to adopt Charlize T’s son Jackson in a bid to become the child’s legal father. Those who are in the know believe that this could be the first big step and indicator that the two intend to tie the nuptial knot soon. In that case, best of (adopted) luck!
