Hollywood star Charlize Theron's mother has reportedly requested the actress not to settle down with Sean Penn.
The 38-year-old actress is said to be head over heels in love with Penn, reported Showbiz spy.
"Charlize says for the first time in her life she can see herself settling down with someone. She's crazy about Sean and would say yes in a second if he asked her to marry him.
"Gerda is counting on the fact that Charlize has always listened to her, and she's filling her ear plenty. She believes a marriage would be a disaster. To Charlize, they already feel like a family. Gerda believes Charlize will eventually take her advice. She wants nothing to do with Sean and hopes Charlize will see the light before it's too late," a source said.
