Sienna Miller Reflects on 'Chaos' from Attention on Her Relationship with Jude Law
Sienna Miller is looking back on her relationship with Jude Law and reflecting on the “chaos” that was caused by all of the media attention.
For those who don’t know, the two actors met while working on the 2004 movie Alfie. They started dating in 2003, got engaged on Christmas Day 2004, but then broke up in 2006 after the scandal involving Jude‘s affair with his kids’ nanny.
Sienna and Jude later rekindled their relationship and dated again from 2009 to 2011.
In a new interview for SiriusXM’s This Life of Mine with James Corden, Sienna looked back on the “surreal” experience she had while dating Jude.

“It’s so surreal to look back and imagine or even to look back sometimes and see pictures of the amount of people that were there in my life all the time and I don’t know what that — I do know what that does to you,” Sienna said.
She continued, “It makes you go completely mad, which is ideal for them. The more you spiral, the better it is in terms of selling papers and that English thing of just wanting to tear people down and it felt so celebratory and I was also so madly in love and it was in many ways the most exciting moment.”
The relationship happened right after Sienna broke into the business.
“I just started working and I was in a big film and in love with this idol and very, very happy, but the flip side of it was so dark so quickly. You learn so much about yourself through that experience, but I feel very lucky to kind of still be here, which sounds dramatic,” she said.
When asked about surviving the media attention, Sienna said, “I think that it can incur just madness and chaos. It is chaos. You are dealing with aggression and violence and you are a piece of prey and you’re being hunted every day, so you are paranoid.”
“It was just an ouroboros of kind of mess, and then, you know, a lot of chaos personally with our relationship and I think everything fed into itself and it just became this very unmanageable energy and I see other people who went through it, and didn’t kind of come out the other side as well, so I’m quite proud,” she added.
