Anne Hathaway has maintained a dignified silence ever since her long-term partner Raffaelo Follieri’s arrest in June, on charges of fraud and money laundering. But now she’s spoken out in a revealing interview with US fashion mag W – and, unsurprisingly, it sounds like she’s been seriously stressed. “Right now I don’t have the wherewithal to be anything except professional,” she says. “As soon as I found out about the arrest, I had to get on a plane to Mexico to do a press tour for Get Smart. And then I spent a week in shock at a friend’s house. And then I had to go back and do more press, and I haven’t stopped since.” The Devil Wears Prada actress also says she’s felt like a teenager and an adult ever since she found out that her man was going daaaaahn. “At different stages of my life, I’ve felt I’ve been two ages simultaneously,” she says. “I’d be a professional working adult and also a typical 13-year-old. Right now I have the distinct feeling that I’m two ages again, and the older part of me that I relied on many times in the past in difficult moments, that’s the part that got me here today. That’s the part that says, ‘You do your job, you keep your head up.’” Anne is also said to have been helping police with their investigation into Raffaelo’s financial dealings. Blimey, the poor thing – she’s one tough cookie.
