Sutherland 'had no passion with Roberts'
Kiefer Sutherland has admitted that his relationship with Julia Roberts fizzled out because they lacked passion.
The couple became engaged after co-starring in 1990's Flatliners, although Roberts later called off the marriage a few days before the wedding and began dating actor Jason Patric.
Speaking to Elle, he said: "At the time, I wanted to raise horses on a farm in Montana, and she was the number one actress on the planet. That didn't create a specific rift but there was a gulf in what we actually wanted.
"There was a huge connection between us but... it was more like friends than the passionate relationship that she or I would have wanted."
The 24 star, who has been married twice, added that he is unsure whether he wants to tie the knot again. "I've seen some of the greatest couples I know torn apart by marriage," he said.
"People quit each other. They take everything for granted. I was married for nine years and wasn't successful at it. I'm still best friends with my ex-wife but I try not to repeat the same mistakes twice."
It's alright Kiefee baby I'll look after you :wub:
Gazza will be dead in a year
ONE of Paul Gascoigne's closest pals says the fallen soccer star will DIE within the next year.
Health spa boss Stephen Purdew reckons Gazza is in a WORSE state than George Best was a few months before he died.
Worried Stephen cared for both fallen football legends at his Champneys chain-and made the same grim prediction about Best less than a year before he suffered multiple organ failure in 2005, aged 59.
He spoke out after Gazza, 42, fell off the wagon this week-and was pictured being helped off a train in Newcastle by best pal, Jimmy "Five Bellies" Gardner, because he was so wasted.
Stephen said: "Just as I said about George. . . if Paul does not get his act together now, he will be dead within the year.
"It's a tragedy because Paul is a nice man but that is what will happen.
"The difference with George was he was older and his problem was just drink. George wasn't smoking heavily and taking other bits and pieces, so in some ways he could last longer.
"Paul will have a complete organ breakdown."
Stephen, 50, arranged for Gazza's most recent stint in rehab-in January and February at Tony Adams' Sporting Chance Clinic in the grounds of Champneys Forest Mere health farm in Hampshire. Now he feels Gazza has wasted that opportunity-along with his many previous attempts to sort himself out.
He added: "Paul has made it a complete waste of time, money and effort.
"He owes me money, though I'm not saying how much, and he owes money to Sporting Chance because he was supposed to pay a contribution for counselling.
"The people at Sporting Chance are devastated. They worked so hard at getting Paul better, the Professional Football Association were involved as well, and so many others in soccer supported him, because they were all keen to see him get better.

"Paul also upset an agent we introduced him to-who was doing a very good job for him restructuring his career-by making abusive phone calls late at night.
"Paul has to say he has let down himself and a lot of other people. He did better with Sporting Chance than with other places. Yet that was about the 15th time he had been to rehab.
"He must be running out of rehab centres to go to. The only way he'll make money now is writing a guide to rehabs!" Stephen said he knew something was wrong before seeing the recent snaps of Gazza with Jimmy.
He said: If I was to give him marks out of 10 for effort, like footballers get from the press after matches, Paul would only get one.
"It's very hard to see any human being in this sort of state but, as this has happened time and time again with Paul, I have no sympathy with him any more. It's a tough world out there-a lot of people are ill and suffering through no fault of their own.
"Addiction can be conquered if you've got support around you. You can make more effort than Paul has.
"When you make no effort, there is no sympathy."
