Sharon Stone, 68, opens up about her love life: “I want someone I care about”

Sharon Stone shared rare insights into her romantic life during an episode of Mayim Bialik’s Breakdown that aired on September 8, 2026. At 68, the actress explained that she has been living without an intimate relationship for some time and now only wants to commit to someone with whom she feels a genuine connection.

The star of Basic Instinct stated that she is primarily looking for a partner to share a deep relationship. Her priorities have shifted as her three sons have grown up: she no longer desires a purely physical relationship and prefers to wait for one based on affection, trust, and companionship.

Sharon Stone acknowledged that her love life has gone through several phases. She recounted being a good partner in both happy relationships and more challenging ones, but believes she is currently in a period without any significant encounters. However, she insists that she does not want to fill this void at any cost.

The actress went further by admitting that she does not think she has yet met what she considers to be the “great love” of her life. This statement comes after several years of not speaking so openly about her romantic expectations.

Sharon Stone has been married twice. She wed producer Michael Greenburg in 1984 before their divorce in 1990, and then journalist Phil Bronstein in 1998, with their marriage ending in 2004. She is the mother of three sons: Roan, Laird, and Quinn.

These revelations contrast with the sex-symbol image that has accompanied the actress since the global success of Basic Instinct in the early 1990s. In the podcast, Sharon Stone emphasized the importance she now places on the quality of the connection and the feeling of emotional security in a relationship.

The last publicly documented romantic relationship of Sharon Stone dates back to 2018, when she was linked to Italian entrepreneur Angelo Boffa. Since then, the actress has remained very private about her love life.
