Mia Farrow “completely” understands actors who choose to work with her director ex Woody Allen.
The actress, 79, opened up about the “Manhattan” filmmaker, 88, with whom she was in a relationship from 1980 to 1992, during an appearance on “CBS Sunday Morning.”
Farrow — who appeared in 13 of Allen’s films while they were together — was left stunned by his decision to start dating her adopted daughter Soon-Yi Previn after their relationship ended before he married the now 53-year-old.

Allen was also accused of sexual abuse by another one of the actress’s daughters, Dylan Farrow, who alleged the director molested her when she was aged 7, though the filmmaker was never charged.
When CBS journalist Seth Doane asked Mia: “Are you able to separate the experience as an actor in those films from the personal trials and tribulations that would follow?,” the star replied: “Oh, yeah, yeah.”
She added: “I completely understand if an actor decides to work with him.
“I’m not one who’d say, ‘Oh, they shouldn’t.'”
After 39-year-old Dylan’s sexual assault allegations against Allen emerged, a string of actors have declared they would not work with the Oscar winner.
Kate Winslet and Drew Barrymore are among those who have expressed regret over starring in his movies, while Colin Firth and “Barbie” director Greta Gerwig have said they would never work with him again.
Timothée Chalamet and Rebecca Hall donated their salaries earned from Allen’s movies to the Time’s Up movement.
Mia, whose exes include Frank Sinatra, has said inviting Allen into her family was the “greatest regret” of her life.
Allen has two daughters with Previn, who he married in 1997.
