The 'Batman v Superman' star says age can be 'real and true sign of someone's maturity.'
Henry Cavill is opening up about his relationship.
The 32-year-old actor, who has been seeing 19-year-old college student Tara King, says in a new interview with Elle magazine that despite their age difference, they still find plenty to talk about.
"People say age is just a number. It's actually real and true sign of someone's maturity," he says. "But in this case, she's fantastic."
"When I met my girlfriend, I was super intimidated. I wanted to impress her," the Batman V. Superman star added. "I was thinking, Don't mess this up, man."

While he's completely comfortable in the relationship, Cavill admits that he understands the "natural reaction" to the couple's age difference, adding that he’s dated older women before: "When I was 19, I was going out with a 32-year-old."
Asked what his former 32-year-old flame taught him, Cavill said coyly: "Things I can't mention in this article."
