Jacqueline Bisset - Personal Life

Personal Life

Bisset is godmother to actress Angelina Jolie.

Bisset has never married, though she has had several lengthy romances. These include a relationship with the actor Michael Sarrazin that lasted over ten years and with the Russian-American dancer and actor Alexander Godunov. "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 divides her time between homes in England and Beverly Hills, California.
