Susan Sarandon reveals the shocking reason she kept her ex-husband’s last name

The Times this week. During their marriage, Chris and Susan were both budding actors who worked odd jobs to stay afloat. By the time of their split in 1975, Susan scored a starring role in “The Rocky Horror Picture Show” and was well on her way to becoming a household name.

Despite their divorce and the decades that have gone by, Susan and Chris — who did not have any children together — have remained on good terms.

The “Dead Man Walking” actress even appeared live on stage with her ex-husband last year to discuss their romance. “When I met Chris, I thought and correctly so, that he knew everything because he took me to black and white movies and introduced me to literature and basically saved my life actually with his kindness,” she told the crowd.

She turned to Chris and stated: “I credit you with my foundation and my survival. One of the reasons I’m here is just to publicly say that.”Susan has never re-married, but she’s had several high-profile romances.
