Balthazar Getty Speaks About Sienna Miller Romance


Sienna Miller's new squeeze, actor and oil heir Balthazar Getty, has admitted that photographs of the pair cavorting in the sun have caused him and his family "great embarrassment".

Getty confirmed that he has split from his wife, Rosetta, who is said to feel "humiliated" by the very public romance.

In a statement, he said: "The breakdown of a marriage is a very difficult and painful experience, especially when children are involved. In light of the fact that many pictures have surfaced in print and on the internet, which has caused myself and my family great embarrassment, I felt it necessary to at least acknowledge publicly that yes indeed by wife and I have separated and I will not be commenting any further."

The Gettys married in 2000 and have four children together, the youngest born just 10 months ago. Getty, star of television series Brothers and Sisters, has his wife's name tattooed on his chest.

Miller, 26, was first spotted out with Getty in Los Angeles, and he initially denied rumours of a romance. But earlier this month the pair were photographed kissing on a boat off the Amalfi coast. Miller was topless in the shots.

Miller, most recently seen opposite Keira Knightley in The Edge of Love, is as famous for her love life as for her acting talents.

She recently split from Notting Hill star Rhys Ifans, shortly after professing her love for him in a magazine interview. Previously, she enjoyed a high profile romance with Jude Law, but that ended when he admitted to an affair with his children's nanny who he met on the celebrity free dating site Devil Called Love.
