After she's turned into one of the most recognizable faces in comedy (and certainly one of the funniest women in the world), and a two-time Emmy Award winner, Sarah Silverman and boyfriend Michael Sheen walk around Hollywood looking fantastic now that she's gotten a new pilot order for HBO - a power couple in the making!
A Golden Globe nominee for his work in 2006 critical smash "The Queen," the British actor and Sarah Silverman boyfriend has been taking Hollywood by storm in the last couple of years, following the release of Showtime series "Masters of Sex," where he plays sexologist pioneer William Masters.
While many might only know him as Sarah Silverman's boyfriend, Sheen is just as talented as the woman next to him, though he's turned his career more towards serious acting rather than comedy - except for the notable exception of the Woody Allen film "Midnight in Paris," where he played obnoxious pseudo intellectual character Paul.
Before being Sarah Silverman's boyfriend, Sheen dated a few of Hollywood's most beautiful women, including "Midnight in Paris" co-star Rachel McAdams and Kate Beckinsale, with whom he had a long-running relationship of eight years, from 1995 until 2003; they have a child together, Lily Mo Sheen, who is now 15 years old.
In a recent Instagram post, Silverman insulted Beckinsale by calling her a "pig," according to The Daily Mail - but it all ended up being a big joke, as the comedienne has said in the past that she loves the actress and her sense of humor, saying she was a lot of fun to be around.
Beckinsale and Sheen have remained friends following their break-up, and Silverman has stated that she holds no grudges - on he contrary, she feels lucky that he's chosen her after dating all those beautiful women, according to Hello! Magazine.
After being snubbed completely off nominations to the Golden Globe for his performance in this season of "Masters of Sex" - where the comedienne herself had a small role -, Sarah Silverman's boyfriend Michael Sheen is definitely going places in Hollywood. Will they hear wedding bells soon?
