“People around him would be dismissive of me, but I had given him stability and tried to create a steady heartbeat that allowed him to show up on time. That made me angry and embarrassed me.”
The two finally cut up in 1991 after seven years collectively. Robert went on to get sober finally — in 2003. At the tip of the day, although, even when her relationship with the Marvel star had its downs, she nonetheless considers him a significant a part of her life:

Aww, that’s actually candy. The two just about grew up collectively in Hollywood by means of a few of their most adolescence, so we’re not shocked they maintain one another close to and pricey of their hearts.
