Charlie Hunnam is an actor who is best known for his role as Jackson “Jax” Teller on the hit series Sons of Anarchy. The show made Hunnam a familiar face to the American public, and he even got nominated for several awards for his work.
Hunnam’s success in Hollywood has definitely brought him a lot of fans who are curious about his personal life. Most notably, fans would like to know more about Hunnam’s romantic relationship and his current girlfriend, Morgana McNelis.
Read on below to find out who McNelis is and how she and Hunnam have managed to keep their relationship strong for over 10 years.
Morgana McNelis is a jewelry designer
McNelis has been working in Hollywood for quite some time as a jewelry designer. She started taking an interest in this craft when she was 20 years old.
Speaking to Taylor Magazine in 2015, she talked about how she came to love designing jewelry. McNelis said: “Working with metal was a medium that resonated with me. It’s unlike any other material. It can be cast into a specific shape and then melted and reborn as something else. I’m fascinated by the concepts of transmutation, alchemy and reincarnation.”
Morgana McNelis loves to travel
Aside from jewelry, McNelis also has another big interest – travel. As she shared with Taylor Magazine, she really enjoyed her trips to London, which is different from Los Angeles, where she is based.
McNelis also has dreams to travel to India. She said: ” I haven’t been to India and have been dying to go. I know the mystical charm and cultural richness of India would be life changing.”
Hunnam and McNelis often keep their relationship private, so it is not clear exactly how they met. It is believed that they began dating sometime in 2005, and they perhaps met either through their work or through mutual friends.
In 2013, the couple even bought a ranch together. They both believe in sustainable gardening, so having a ranch allows them to partake in this activity together.
Hunnam once shared: “We’ve got 30 chickens and a couple of donkeys, a couple of ducks and we’ve got a big, organic garden. We are going to try to live a bit more sustainably.”
“I think the key to maintaining a good balance is creating a safe space within the relationship for both partners in which to grow and evolve,” she told Taylor Magazine. “It’s very important to be present and participate in each other’s experiences so that falling in love doesn’t happen just once, it continues to happen over and over.”
Hunnam and McNelis are about to take their relationship to the next level by officially tying the knot. Although neither of them has revealed when exactly their wedding will take place, Hunnam has shared a bit about what getting married means for him.
Speaking to SiriusXM’s “Radio Andy” show, Hunnam said that he is rather “indifferent” about marriage, but his girlfriend feels differently. He shared: “She’s very eager. I’ll do it because it’s important to her, but I don’t have any sort of great romantic feelings towards it.”
