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.

“I wish to suggest that a man may be very industrious, and yet not spend his time well. There is no more fatal blunderer than he who consumes the greater part of his life getting his living.”
