Russell Crowe wants to keep his love life private

He’s the star of Hollywood blockbuster, Noah, but Russell Crowe, 49, said when it comes to his family, he’s just a normal down-to-earth guy.

The actor was interviewed on popular talk show, The Graham Norton Show, alongside Kylie Minogue and Cameron Diaz, where he revealed that press coverage puts him off from having relationships in the public eye. Russell, who split from his wife of nine years, Danielle Spencer, in 2012, with whom he has two sons, Tennyson, 7, and Charles, 10, says that he thinks of family first.

“I also have the responsibility of my two boys and I don’t want them thinking anything other than their mum is the most perfect woman in the world.

“I don’t want them to see me in another relationship with someone who is not their mother. It’s not something I need or want them to have to deal with at the moment.”

Russell also touched upon the subject of his latest movie, the controversial Noah, in which he plays the lead role, alongside Emma Watson, Jennifer Connelly and Douglas Booth.
