Ewan McGregor is facing a troubling situation involving an obsessed woman who has crossed state lines in her attempts to contact him. This woman, identified as Angelica Gorentz, has reportedly issued bizarre threats that involve firearms and expressed her desire to have a baby with him. In response to the escalating threats, Ewan has filed for a restraining order to protect himself and his family.
The alarming situation began in 2022 when Gorentz first came to Ewan’s attention after sending him hundreds of “rambling, delusional and threatening messages.” According to court documents, Gorentz perceives herself as Ewan’s jilted lover, believing that his current wife, actress Mary Elizabeth Winstead, has taken him from her. The intensity of Gorentz’s obsession significantly increased in December when she drove from Minnesota to California, showing up at the home of Ewan’s ex-wife on Christmas Eve while he and his family were celebrating together.
During this visit, Gorentz attempted to gain access to the property but was denied entry at a security gate after asking a series of bizarre questions. Following this encounter, the threats escalated further. Ewan described Gorentz’s actions as increasingly erratic, including references to the television show “Dexter” and a sniper rifle she claimed to have been researching. He also noted that Gorentz has sent over 500 emails to him and his family members since the ordeal began.
Among her disturbing messages, she expressed aggressive desires to have children with Ewan, explicitly stating in one email that “I only need your balls to have kids with you with IVF not your f**king d**k.” Additionally, last October, she claimed that after watching “DaVinci Code,” she interpreted the film as a secret message from the Illuminati, suggesting that she has royal lineage. Ewan found her claims to be terrifying and compared the situation to a chilling narrative devoid of any humor.
In her communications, Gorentz even indicated plans to travel across the country to Ewan’s ex-wife’s residence, chastising him for never having met her in person. Disturbingly, she provided real-time updates during her trip, detailing her stops and activities in various towns along the way. As a result of these events, a judge granted Ewan a temporary restraining order, mandating that Gorentz must remain at least 100 yards away from him, Mary, their five children, and his ex-wife. Furthermore, she is prohibited from contacting or harassing them in any capacity.
