During a 2020 appearance on “The Howard Stern Show,” Jim Carrey declared his “Me, Myself and Irene” co-star Renee Zellweger the “great love of [his] life” (via Us Weekly). But how does the Academy Award winner, who dated the funnyman for a year at the turn of the century, feel about him?
Well, like many of Carrey’s exes, she’s remained fairly tight-lipped about her time with the comic. However, in a 2003 chat with Cosmopolitan, she did refute the rumors that they were ever engaged: “The English papers wrote that I was proposed to in a West End restaurant with a ring, and they included the size and cost of the ring. But it was all made up. … I’d only been dating him for three months. As if I would consider marriage after only three months!”

Zellweger then got a little cryptic, revealing that she’s still best friends with one of her unnamed exes. Could this have been Carrey? Or could she have been referring to the star when asked about her ultimate icks? Her answers: “To be dismissive of my dog [Woofer, a collie-golden retriever mix]. If she has to be sent away from the table, well, then he can’t be across the table … If he’s disrespectful of the waiter or the busboy, because it clearly means that his kindness is conditional and he divvies it up when it serves him to be nice.”
