Personal life
Chapman was born with femoral anteversion, commonly known as being 'pigeon-toed', as the condition causes her toes to point inward while walking. At the age of eight, she was also diagnosed with dyslexia. She is good friends with actor David Oyelowo, whom she has known since she was 18.[12]
Chapman and film producer Harvey Weinstein[13] began dating in 2004, prior to his separation from his first wife[14][15] and married on 15 December 2007 in Connecticut, US. They have two children.[16] On 10 October 2017, Chapman announced she was divorcing Weinstein after more than 100 women made accusations of rape, assault, or sexual harassment against him.[17][18][19][12] They reached a settlement in January 2018 and their divorce was finalized in July 2021.[20]
Since at least early 2020, she has been in a relationship with Academy Award winning actor Adrien Brody.[21]
