Dublin born Colin Farrell was just as well known for his bad boy lifestyle as his acting until he decided to clean up is act a couple of years ago and conquer his addictions to alcohol and drugs.
But, back in 2004, the Castleknock native stole the heart of one of Hollywood’s leading ladies and left her devastated when he wouldn’t commit to their relationship.
Rumours are swirling in Hollywood that while filming the Oliver Stone epic Alexander, Farrell and Angelina Jolie started a physical relationship and that Brad Pitt’s missus became infatuated with her Irish co-star and was drawn to his fowl mouthed, whiskey-swilling charm.
Angelina and Colin back in 2004
In an effort to lure Colin, Jolie apparently sent a series of sexy voicemails and emails and as the weeks went on her feelings grew stronger and stronger for him but unusually for Jolie, the feeling was not mutual.
Broken-hearted, the mum of six moved onto her next project Mr & Mrs Smith and we all know what happened there…
Colin is no stranger to leaving a string of broken hearts in his wake. He has enjoyed trysts with Naomi Campbell, Demi Moore, Britney Spears and Kate Beckinsale in the past and was also married to actress Amelia Warner for four months in 2001.
