Actors' Love Affairs
Actors' quotes about love
Topic description
This section includes actors' quotes about love, courtship and marriage, but also about cheating, sex affairs and divorce. In Hollywood, seduction and romanticism are the best words for describing romantic relationships. Life as a couple, though, is not always a burden for celebrities. Some of them have been together with the same partners for many years, and, sometimes, new relationships do not always end with cheating. New loves and break-ups: the focus of this section is love affairs.
