Is Charlize Theron’s relationship with Stuart Townsend over? Theron has shown up at almost every Oscar event so far with her mother as her date. When approached by Us at the Warner Bros Pre-Oscar dinner last night, she said, "I'm with my mom! It's so exciting!" When asked where Stuart was, she repeated, "I'm with my mom! It's so exciting!" This brings to mind actress-turned-writer Carrie Fisher’s recent article in the The New York Times in which she writes:
 

My friends and I used to make bets about how long a celebrity marriage would last after the woman had won an Oscar and the man hadn't...For some men, at least, a woman flaunting an Oscar can feel like deliberate emasculation, and spell doom for the relationship.

 
Was Charlize’s second nomination too much for Townsend to handle? Let's hope Char wins Best Actress tonight so we can see whether, in her speech, she mentions him, omits him, or "forgets him" a la Hilary Swank.
