Jim Carrey Calls Ex Fiancee Renee Zellweger 'Great Love of My Life'

In his new satirical memoir “Memoirs and Misinformation,” Jim Carrey described his ex girlfriend Renee Zellweger as the “great love of my life.” If you don’t know, they dated after meeting on the set of My, Myself & Irene and were actually engaged but split in December of 2000.

Howard Stern asked Jim during an interview about using that phrase to describe his ex and he responded, “She was special to me, very special. I think she’s lovely.”

He was then asked if she was “the one that got away,” to which the actor replied, “I don’t regret, I don’t have those things. But I do appreciate the people that have come through my life for the good that they gave me and that’s why Linda Ronstadt has a special place in the book.” Jim dated Linda briefly in the 1980s.

“I don’t pine for anybody, it’s not that kind of situation. It’s just my way of saying ‘There was a very important thing there’ and recognize that,” Jim added.

If you missed it, Renee recently reunited with another famous ex.
