Page "Jacqueline Bisset" Paragraph 13

Bisset has never married, though she has had several lengthy romances.

These include a relationship with the Canadian actor Michael Sarrazin that lasted over 10 years, as well as relationships with the Moroccan film producer Victor Drai, the Russian dancer / actor Alexander Godunov, and the Turkish martial arts instructor Emin Boztepe.

" I feel like I was married to them because I was very dedicated to them ," she said in a 2008 interview.

" But I also used to feel claustrophobic.

Like many people who don't easily commit, I think I had a fear of being known ; I was not sure there was anybody inside there.

" She also dated the French actor Vincent Perez, who was 20 years her junior.

Author Marc Eliot wrote that Bisset had an affair with the actor Steve McQueen, which she has not publicly discussed, though she said in a 2007 interview " was sort of manic and yet very hard to know.

We didn't get close.
