DIANE KEATON’S PREVIOUS RELATIONSHIPS

While focusing on her career, the icon also had an active romantic life, with A-list stars like Al Pacino, Warren Beatty and Woody Allen making the list. Keaton and Woody Allen made the headlines for years with their romance. Their affair kicked off after she auditioned for his Broadway production, Play it again, in 1969. Allen once noted that he became attracted to the young beauty thanks to her sense of humor. They worked together on several films, cohabited as a couple for a while before their eventual split. They have maintained a close friendship since their breakup.

She met and dated Warren when they co-starred in Reds, in 1979. Sadly, their relationship ended after the movie became a wrap. Her relationship with her Godfather co-star, Al Pacino, was also short-lived.

DIANE KEATON’S THOUGHT ON MARRIAGE

Despite her numerous dating experiences in the past, the actress never deemed it necessary to tie the knot. Keaton has been open about her love life and her take on marriage. During a 2019 interview, the actress revealed she had not dated anyone in 35 years, nor shared a kiss. The star, however, does not feel left out in any way. In 2001, she explicitly clarified her views on marriage, saying:

“I don’t think that because I am not married, it’s made my life any less. That old-maid myth is garbage.”

It appears marriage had never been in the books for this star from the onset. She once recounted how she resolved in high school that she never wanted to be a wife. A male friend’s declaration of how good a wife she would someday become admittedly spurred the resolution.

Notwithstanding her resolve, Keaton just might review her stance for the right guy. During an episode of Ellen DeGeneres Show, the 74-year-old revealed teasingly that she was willing to get married to Step Up actor, Channing Tatum. She disclosed this after the TV host teased that it was not too late for her to tie the knot. Ellen was quick to remind Keaton that Tatum was already married, triggering a bout of laughter from the audience.

FAMILY AND PERSONAL LIFE

The never-married actress is a mother to two kids, whom she raised as a single mom. She adopted both kids when she clocked 50, six years after her father’s death. Speaking on her decision to adopt, the icon recalled how her dad shared his regrets about life with her shortly before his passing. To avoid having regrets of her own, she decided to become a mother, welcoming Dexter Keaton, 24, and Duke Keaton, 19, into her life.

Diane Keaton’s children marked the beginning of a new era for the actress, as she learned to embrace love in a new light, thanks to them.
