Minnie Driver
So glad she didn’t marry this star!
Minnie Driver almost made the "biggest mistake" of her life by saying yes to a fellow actress.
The actress was engaged to her Hollywood colleague Josh Brolin in 2001, but the couple broke up just five months later. Driver is still convinced that not getting married was the best decision for everyone.
In an interview with "The Times" magazine, she explains: "The one time I was engaged, I think it would have been the biggest mistake of my life."
"Not the right men for marriage"
Together with her ex-partner Timothy J. Lea, Minnie has a 15-year-old son Henry. She was also once in a relationship with her former co-star Matt Damon.
The "Good Will Hunting" actress reveals that her parents' relationship influenced her own views on love. Due to her father's infidelity, her parents never walked down the aisle. "When I look at my history, it led to me wanting to be married so badly and then choosing men who weren't the right men for marriage," Driver admits.
"So I kept longing to be married and have this conservative version [of a relationship] and looking for men who weren't interested. And when one did come along, I ran away."
Happy for five years
The actress has now found happiness in love: She has been with writer and director Addison O'Dea for over five years. He is the "most devoted, loving and extraordinary" man, even if he doesn't want to get married. "Everything I would have wished for in a husband in my childhood, he actually is," enthuses the 54-year-old.
