Jordana Brewster Gets Candid About Her Divorce & Finding Love with New Boyfriend Mason Morfit

Jordana Brewster is opening up about her divorce from ex-husband Andrew Form and her relationship with new boyfriend Mason Morfit.

The 41-year-old Fast & Furious actress wrote an essay for Glamour in which she talked about finding the love of her life with Mason.

“Most of why my marriage didn’t work was not my ex-husband’s fault. He loves work. He loves being on set, on location. I knew this from ages 27 to 32, but it became a problem for me once the kids were older. I wanted a partner,” she said in the essay. “So, toward the beginning of the pandemic, Andrew and I decided to separate. The combination of being apart for most of the year for many years and growing apart emotionally took its toll.”

Jordana talked about how she met Mason for the first time while having lunch with mutual friends, which was also attended by her then-husband Andrew. Days after she separated from her ex-husband, she flew to San Francisco to visit Mason.

Jordana‘s split from Andrew was revealed on June 6, 2020. She was spotted kissing Mason one month later in Los Angeles.

“Mason and I had met once, while we were both still married, four years ago. At a lunch with mutual friends, he sat next to my then husband, and they talked about Hollywood. I’m always shy in new social situations, so I excused myself and wandered around Park City. But I took note of Mason; he was cute, charming. Shortly after that lunch I started following him on Instagram. I enjoyed his sweet, self-deprecating humor. His intelligence made him all the more attractive. He started following me as well. My heart would leap as soon as he liked a post or commented on something I’d written. We had similar backgrounds: We’d grown up abroad, ping-ponging from England to Brazil (me) and Indonesia (him),” Jordana wrote in the essay.

She continued, “Four days after I separated from Andrew, I was on a plane to San Francisco to visit this man I had met only once but who had stayed on my mind. I knew he’d been separated for two years. I wanted to see him, to confirm whether the image I’d built up in my mind matched reality. What I got was far more than I expected.”

“When I landed, Mason was at the bottom of the escalator, holding a sign with my name on it. My heart was fluttering like a hummingbird. I felt at once super panicked but also strangely grounded. I couldn’t help but move toward him. He took me into his arms and we embraced. For five minutes. In our masks. Everyone at the arrival terminal walked around us. During a time when the world avoided all contact, when it was mandated that everyone stay six feet apart, Mason and I blended into each other. I thought, Please kiss me. And he did,” Jordana said.

Jordana wrote about how friends questioned her relationship with Mason and urged her to slow things down.

“In my 20s and most of my 30s, I second-guessed every move or decision I made. In my 40s, I know what I value and am proud of decisions I can make on my own. My newfound security helps my kids in the long run. I know that in my heart. I also feel like I finally have a partner,” she said.

Jordana said she still mourns the fact that her kids won’t grow up in a home with both of their parents, but then she realized that families come in all shapes and sizes.

“I still speed up sometimes. I’m already planning my second wedding in my head. But I stop myself when I get that rushed, buzzy feeling. I stop. I breathe. I write. Mason also calls me on it, which is helpful. I found it. I found him. I can slow down. And I do,” she said. “Ultimately my divorce wasn’t my fault or my ex-husband’s fault. At 27, I was not ready to be emotionally open or vulnerable. I wasn’t ready to really let someone in. At 40, I cracked myself open and put it all on the line. With that came the collateral damage of my first marriage, but by risking it all I gained the love of my life.”

Andrew has moved on with another famous actress and they were spotted together for the first time just days ago!
