It was on the set of another movie that the pair met. Burton and Bonham Carter met on the set of Planet of the Apes, a 2001 blockbuster that Burton directed. Actress Lisa Marie, Burton’s live-in girlfriend, was also in the movie, but the director only had eyes for Bonham Carter. Bonham Carter and Burton began dating, and they were together until 2014.
