"I don't have those things," he explained, "but I do appreciate the people that have come through my life for the good that they gave me."
Carrey had said Zellweger was "a very connected person"
Carrey opened up to Entertainment Weekly back in 2000 about his then-relationship with Zellweger. "She’s a very connected person. She thinks having a good time is renting a U-Haul and taking furniture to Texas," he said. "She’s real in that way and I absolutely love it."
His career could have gone a very different way!
As for Zellweger, she explained to CNN how she'd realized her feelings for Carrey. "I liked him, a lot," Zellweger admitted, "but you're not going [to the set] for the love connection. However, after filming was over, things changed for the two.
"When the picture wrapped, we'd spoken a couple of times on the phone and then all those rumors came out that I was dating him. I was so mad. I said, 'No, it's not true.' And then I went home … and I went, 'God, I do miss him.'"
