Sean Penn puffs on a cigarette as he takes a stroll with daughter Dylan... after Charlize Theron 'calls off their engagement'

He was reportedly dumped abruptly by Charlize Theron sometime in the last month and Sean Penn is getting over it by spending time with his daughter Dylan. 

The 54-year-old actress took a walk with model and actress Dylan, 24, in Los Angeles on Sunday (Father's Day), where the casually dressed pair appeared deep in conversation. 

Sean, who puffed on a cigarette, was casually dressed in a battered leather jacket and cords.

And Dylan was equally casual, in jeans, a hoodie and converse, with her hair pulled back from her face. 

Just last week UsWeekly reported that Charlize, 39, called off the engagement after she and Sean spent time together in Europe in May.

Charlize attended the Cannes Film Festival in mid May to promote her film Mad Max: Fury Road. She looked happy with the Bad Boys star on May 14 at the premiere of her blockbuster.

The couple were pictured side-by-side two days later in Vienna at the Life Ball. At one point he had his arm around her during the event.

The exact date of their split is not known.

Charlize was not seen with Penn when she presented an award to Seth MacFarlane at the Critic's Choice Awards on May 31.

The actress, who has a son Jackson, aged three, was also solo when arriving at LAX airport on June 7. She is now in London filming The Huntsman.

According to People, the two were not living under the same roof earlier this month. Charlize was staying at her Hollywood home with son Jackson before she took off for London while Sean has been spending time at his Malibu residence. The beach home was for sale, but he took it off the market recently.

A source also told the site the two had 'backed out of at least one scheduled event together.'

They have known each other for decades, but only went public with their romance in December 2013.

A year into their relationship, Us reported they had gotten secretly engaged during a trip to Paris. An engagement ring was never seen, however, and the two never confirmed the reports. 

The two worked together earlier this year on the drama The Last Face, which was shot in Africa. Sean directed while Charlize starred. Also in the cast is Javier Bardem. 

Sean was married to Madonna, 56, from 1985 to 1989. In 2010 he divorced Robin Wright, 49, after 14 years of marriage. She is now engaged to Ben Foster. 

Someone to talk to: Dylan had previously gushed about Charlize but no doubt she will be on her dad's side in the split

Meanwhile, the blonde's exes include Craig Bierko and Stuart Townsend.

In March the Dead Man Walking star told Esquire UK, 'You say I've been married twice before, but I've been married under circumstances where I was less informed than I am today,' he said.

'So I wouldn't even consider it a third marriage, I'd consider it a first marriage on its own terms if I got married again. I mean, I like the tradition. A friend of mine wrote a line, 'Without tradition, new things die.' And I don't want new things to die.'

Get cut out for fashion in a dress like Charlize's

Charlize Theron certainly made a statement while she presented the Critics Choice Awards alongside Seth McFarlane - daring to bare all in her cut out maxi dress.

The caged, flesh-flashing piece is unmistakably Cushnie et Ochs, who sent the piece down the runway for the autumn/winter 2015 shows. The model from the show looked strikingly like Charlize herself - so it's no wonder this piece suited the actress perfectly (not to mention her perfectly toned body!)

Of course the collections for this autumn aren't ready to snap up yet, but there are plenty of alternative cut out dresses on the high street to get your hands on - There are dresses to suit all tastes and budgets below.

He also said he was 'surprised to be in love' with the Monster star.

'I'm self-proclaimed bad at mathematics but I can do two plus two,' he explained. '53 years old plus finally beginning to figure out why you haven't been happy in a single relationship? It could seem too late.

'But to run into somebody now who you care about is a much more passionate, deeper, truer and – God! – a much happier feeling.

'It's a lot more romantic and a lot more fulfilling to be in a relationship and to think you're a good person within it.' 

Theron told Esquire in April, 'I'm a very, very, very lucky girl. Very lucky. He's hot.'

She then told Elle UK's June issue, 'Putting aside that he's my partner, he's the love of my life.'

In January Page Six reported that Sean had filed papers to adopt Charlize's son Jackson.
