Zoë Kravitz on divorce from Karl Glusman: 'Breakups are sad, but are beautiful things, too'

In a new interview with AnOther Magazine, Zoë Kravitz discussed how the making of her forthcoming debut solo studio album with acclaimed producer Jack Antonoff over the last couple of years, "on and off," helped her process her divorce from Karl Glusman.

"I wrote it over a long stretch of time, subconsciously just capturing this range of emotions, which has been interesting to look back on and see what I was writing about them, then and now and in between," the 32-year-old actress and singer-songwriter explained. "It's personal. It's about love and loss. I got married. I got divorced. Separations, breakups are sad but are beautiful things too. It's about the bittersweetness, that beginning and that end. It's so complex, that space, when you're in between heartbroken and mourning the loss of something and excited for what's ahead of you."

Kravitz met Glusman, a 33-year-old actor, in late 2016 when her friend introduced them. Glusman proposed in February 2018, and the couple wed at Lenny Kravitz's (her dad, if you somehow didn't know) Paris mansion in June 2019. Kravitz filed for divorce last December, and the split was finalized in late August.

In the month-plus since, Kravitz has been unofficially linked to Channing Tatum.

Tatum is set to star in Kravitz's directorial debut, which she discussed with AnOther:

"I've been writing it for four years. I want to be careful about how I speak about it and what information I put out there because there are a lot of layers to the story. I was actually in London shooting Fantastic Beasts when I started to write it. I had a decent amount of time off during that film, and I was feeling a lot of frustration and anger towards men, specifically in my industry, and I felt like this wasn't a conversation that was happening at the time. Then my imagination ran away with me and I started writing a story around those feelings. Then Harvey Weinstein happened and the world changed. This story has evolved with the world evolving, which has been interesting and which is part of the reason it took so long. This conversation is happening in real time."
