Harvey Weinstein’s ex-wife Georgina Chapman has moved on with Adrien Brody

Georgina Chapman split from Harvey Weinstein when the first allegations of sexual misconduct came out. Now she’s got a new man.

Harvey Weinstein: The verdict

While Harvey Weinstein is headed to jail, his ex-wife Georgina Chapman is finding solace in the arms of Oscar winner Adrien Brody.

Chapman married Weinstein in 2007 and separated from him in 2017 when the allegations of sexual misconduct against the movie mogul first made headlines.

Rumours popped up late last year that Chapman, 43, and Brody, 46, were dating, and a source close to Chapman confirmed to Page Six they’re still together.

While the designer and the movie star had met and socialised previously, sparks apparently flew when they were both invited to Puerto Rico for the launch of model Helena Christensen’s swimwear line in April last year, held at the swanky Dorado Beach Ritz-Carlton Reserve, joining guests including Brooke Shields and Chris Henchy, Malin Akerman and Jack Donnelly.

Photos show the pair looking cozy as they sat opposite each over a candlelight dinner with friends.

Chapman, who was married to Weinstein for 10 years and is the mother of his two youngest children, had sworn off dating after their divorce, but we’re told that Brody has been a big source of support to her.

After time off the social scene, the designer behind the Marchesa fashion label is happily seeing close friends in New York who have stood by her during a nightmare time.

The Daily Mail first reported on their romance.

Speaking in a Vogue interview in May 2018, Chapman said she did not want to be viewed

a victim “because I don’t think I am. I am a woman in a sh*t situation, but it’s not unique”.

“There was a part of me that was terribly naive — clearly, so naive,” she told the magazine.

“I have moments of rage, I have moments of confusion, I have moments of disbelief! And I have moments when I just cry for my children. What are their lives going to be? What are people going to say to them? It’s like, they love their dad. They love him. I just can’t bear it for them.”

Meantime, staffers at Rikers Island prison are apparently eagerly awaiting Weinstein’s arrival from Bellevue hospital and say they won’t be giving him any special treatment — no matter how much he tries to butter up the guards.

“Weinstein’s the talk of Rikers — the guards say he won’t get any special treatment from them. They can’t wait to see him in there, to be honest. He’s in for a shock,” one jail staffer told Page Six.

It’s not known whether Weinstein will stay in the Rikers medical facility before his March 11 sentencing or in his own cell, but the source said of the medical area: “You don’t want to be there — all it is is people screaming and piss and s**t being thrown around.”

But the source cynically added: “The more money you have, the more you’ll end up in a cushy jail, so I don’t think Harvey will stay too long at Rikers.”
