I think she's stunning and wish her the best. I hate how the People article headline tags her as 'Sean Penn Ex-Girlfriend Jesssica White". Uggh! She was successful enough in her own right.

Funny how everyone who goes out or gets married to Shaw Penn was abused as a child. Homing instinct?

Where did you get that from? I have never heard of anyone he dated being abused as a child. He was married to Madonna (never heard about any abuse in her childhood) and married to Robin Wright (never heard anything about her being abused either).
