The Hollywood actor, known for his comedy roles, is famous for his love, sensitivity, deep inner feelings. Jim Carrey had several wives, a child and even a grandson. But only one woman who did not manage to marry him left a serious mental trauma.
The comedian has had more than one marriage and many affections.
First wife
For the first time, Jim Carrey tied himself in family ties back in 1987. At the age of 25, he married, as he thought, out of great love to the waitress Melissa Womer. By the way, she also attended auditions and auditions, tk. dreamed of becoming an actress. Having acquired the status of the wife of a comedian already popular at that time, Melisa gained fame in secular circles, but this did not last long.
Just 6 months after the marriage, the daughter of Jane was born in the family, so it becomes obvious that the legalization of the relationship was still forced. The actor carried his daughter in his arms from the first day of her life, he provided her with everything she needed. And in order for the family to live in abundance, Jim Carrey took on any, including minor, roles.
The newlyweds did not get along in character, the explosive Melissa and the impulsive Jim very quickly realized that their union was an unfortunate mistake. 7 years later, in 1995, the couple scattered by mutual agreement. But to this day, Kerry's first wife does not feel any need, the actor gives a decent part of his royalties to the maintenance of his ex-wife and daughter. And with the divorce, Kerry had to give the woman a one-time compensation in the amount of $ 7 million.
Second wife
Not having been in the status of a bachelor and a year after the divorce, the actor married a second time. The comedian's chosen one was an actress named Lauren Holly.
The two actors met on the set of the sparkling comedy "Dumb and Dumber". The lovers succumbed to fleeting passion and were so carried away by each other that they could not live alone for a minute. The romance happened stormy and long, and the family was fragile. And just a few months later, in 1997, Jim Carrey regained his bachelor's freedom.
Lauren Holly was not left alone and soon married a banker. And Jim Carrey still lives in the status of an officially divorced man, preferring an open relationship with the fair sex.
Finding a wife in Russia
In 2012, Jim Carrey looked after a student from Russia named Anastasia Vitkina as his wife, but the couple broke up pretty quickly. According to rumors, the actor was in love with the Russian ballerina Anastasia Volochkova for some time. And they had love relationships and public romantic dates. But the almost incompatible work schedule of both artists led to the separation.
Kerry has been noticed more than once in the company of Hollywood celebrities. The paparazzi filmed him in the arms of actress Renee Zellweger, and then model Jenny McCarthy. But all this turned out to be only fleeting romances.
A failed wedding
In 2015, Jim Carrey could have gotten married for the third time, and it was a really big love. But the chosen one Katriona White committed suicide, which drove the unfortunate comedian into a prolonged depression.
Catherine, a native of Ireland, has lived in the United States since 2009 and holds a diploma as a hairdresser and make-up artist. She was aiming high - to Hollywood. She dreamed of becoming an actress (not a make-up artist). She even starred in one episode of the series "Online Gamer", and that's all. By naivety, the girl became interested in the popular religion of Scientology among celebrities.
In the summer of 2012, Ekaterin was introduced to the already middle-aged comedian Jim Carrey. And, since the actor openly ridiculed Scientology in many of his jokes, it was definitely not this trend that brought them together. Since the young Irish woman was the same age as his daughter, and was also incredibly shy, no one knew about this relationship for a long time. Moreover, the reason for their secrecy could be the fact that Ekaterin lived and worked in America illegally. And she didn't even go to Ireland for her father's funeral, so as not to get a ban on entering the United States because of an expired visa.
Judging by her suicide documents, Ekaterin was looking for ways to legalize herself in America and even secretly married cameraman Mark Burton. None of the friends, and even Jim Carrey himself, knew about the true state of affairs. The truth surfaced when, after her death, the police offered to take her body not to her beloved comedian, but to her legal spouse.
What united such different people? Chronic depression - one for two. She became a fertile ground for kindred souls. Kerry was in a serious psychological state after his first wife Melisa Womer told reporters the intimate secrets of their life: for many years in a row Jim took antidepressants, could behave inappropriately, even howl, which frightened his little daughter. Jim himself allegedly saw in his despair an excellent motivator for further creativity.
Ekaterin was also a depressed person and, like no one else, read and perceived all of Kerry's quirks. “They locked themselves at his house and sat for several days in dark rooms with drawn curtains,” said witnesses to their romance. They parted and reunited, which the Scientology sect did not like very much. After all, when they found themselves with Jim, Ekaterin lost interest in religious procedures.
In this story, not everything turned out to be cloudless. Kat was in love with the actor and even collected documents to divorce and marry Kerry. But at the same time, at their last meeting, five days before the tragedy, they suddenly decided to leave. The point was put by the last message of Ekaterin on Twitter: "I hope I brought light into the lives of those I loved."
All expenses for the funeral were borne by the inconsolably grieving Jim Carrey.
Daughter
Jim still adores his now grown-up daughter from his first marriage, Jane - they have a very warm relationship.
He was a guest of honor at her wedding, is actively involved in the upbringing of Jackson's newborn grandson Riley, whom she gave birth to after the wedding of Jane. The joyful event took place in February 2010. True, after a couple of years, the daughter divorced her faithful. But loving grandfather Jim Carrey continues to actively help both his daughter and her son.
