Rachel McAdams and Michael Sheen looked like they were on their way to tying the knot, but looks can be deceiving. Turns out the couple didn’t have the same perspective on the future, which caused the two actors to break up. It seems “The Notebook” actor had envisioned getting married to Sheen, but Sheen was not on the same page. A source shared, “Rachel wants to settle down and is dreaming of having a family. Michael always seemed content with their relationship.” Sheen’s past relationships may have influenced his reasoning for not wanting to settle down with McAdams.
The “Underworld” actor had previously been married to actor Kate Beckinsale. The couple met in 1995 and welcomed their only child together, Lily, in 1995. In 2002, Sheen and Beckinsale ended their relationship with each other. Although McAdams and Sheen got together years later, Sheen had already experienced what it was like to have a family and be married, so he felt no rush to do it again. A source shared, “Since he already has a daughter, he feels no need to have more children. He wants to focus on his career.”

However, since he and McAdams were in a years-long relationship, they did try to work through things. The source said, “…At the end they just couldn’t agree. It caused some frustration and they thought it was better to go separate ways.”
