James Franco and Izabel Pakzad spotted in Mykonos (PHOTOS)

The islands of our country, but especially Mykonos, are attracting all the Hollywood stars this year as well, including James Franco and Izabel Pakzad.

After Eva Mendes and Ryan Gosling who spent part of their vacation in Antiparos, another famous couple found themselves in Greece.

James Franco and Izabel Pakzad are the latest celebrities to be spotted on the "Island of Winds".

In the snapshots that were released, we see the couple dressed in warmer clothes, trying to go unnoticed. Look at the pictures:

James Franco and Izabel Pakzad visited our country last summer, with the young actress posting photos from their holidays in Mykonos and Santorini.

The relationship between the two actors is said to have started in November 2017. The paparazzi have located them several times together, while they have also attended official events together.

The actress from New Jersey, in fact, stayed with 43-year-old James Franco even when he was accused of sexual abuse.

We remind you that the actor was accused by two of his former students at the drama school that he taught at of sexual harassment.

He himself had described the accusations against him as untrue.

However, in June 2021 he was asked to pay $2.2 million in damages to settle the lawsuit.

In addition, a few months ago he admitted that he is addicted to sex and that he has had an affair with his female students.

In excerpts from The Jess Cagle Podcast made public in December 2021, Franco said that while teaching, he “did sleep with students, and that was wrong”. He said he had not started the school to lure women for sexual purposes.

“I suppose at the time, my thinking was if it’s consensual, OK,” he added in the SiriusXM podcast. “At the time I was not clearheaded.”

The remarks were Franco’s first extended comments about accusations leveled against him nearly four years ago when the Los Angeles Times reported that five women had accused Franco of conduct they considered inappropriate.

Later, in October 2019, two women filed a civil suit against the actor, accusing him of exploiting aspiring actors at his now defunct school and duping young women into shooting explicit sex scenes.

Franco said he had developed a sex addiction after he became sober from an alcohol addiction he developed at a young age.

“It’s such a powerful drug,” he said. “I got hooked on it for 20 more years. The insidious part of that is that I stayed sober from alcohol all that time.”

Franco co-hosted the Oscars ceremony in 2011 and was a nominee at the 2012 awards for his performance in 127 Hours.

The actor agreed this year to pay $2.2m to settle the 2019 civil lawsuit, according to documents filed in Los Angeles superior court.

In the podcast interview, Franco also said he had been in recovery from sex addiction since 2016 and had “been doing a lot of work” after the allegations against him “and changing who I was”.

“I didn’t want to hurt people,” he said.
