I think she was scared of having children. The way she acted around the idea is suspicious. She probably didn't want to waste her money on children. Alan had said in an interveiw that he wanted a family and a dog, but said he didn't have the time. Rima could have taken care of their children or pet since she clearly had nothing better to do. I think Alan adored her, but she was only in it for the money.

I believe when they first started going together as much as Alan love to have children it would have come up in a conversation. Had she told him she did not ever want children I think he would have left her to find someone else, this is before he got famous, before they had a lot of history together. They could have stayed friends but he could have looked for someone else to have a family with. So I think that means that she told him she would have children at some point and so he stayed with her why not he liked her a lot? And maybe through time he asked her again about children and she kept saying that she would to a point where finally time was catching up with them or she just told him flat out I never intended to have kids. Now you realize a lot of celebrities have children and pets and they take them everywhere they go so that is not really an excuse not when you have money. And I don't believe he would have worked so hard if he had a family to come home to. He'd have been healthier, ate better slept better taking better care of himself maybe still be alive. I would have given up some movies if I knew he would have been happy and healthier. But I think once he got the cancer the prostate cancer and any hopes of having children was definitely gone I think he realized how he wasted so many years and now there's nothing he can do about it so he tried to make the best of it and his relationship but you can tell he's got a certain sadness about him and he's not really that attentive to her when they're anywhere out in the public. But I think he would have been hurt and felt betrayed if she led him on all those years telling him she would have children and then to tell him at some point probably when he got famous she would have been like 40 when he did die hard, that she had no intention of having children. Because it was always important to him because he always loved children and you can see it in his face when people who are interviewing him mention are you going to watch these HP movies again with your children and grandchildren?? The look on his face and the way he changes subjects quickly it shows it bothers him to talk about it

​@@barbarazirger7732omg, I love how u think about all of this! I think the same... 😔

​@@sophiesss2thank you! That means a lot!

We do not know the truth, but I think she was a bit selfish. She should have gave him at least one child or leave him in time if she knew how much he wanted to be father. A real soulmate would have done this. He always supported her in everything and she...?!

He could be- as you say "relaxed", as the questioner was/is a very cultured, educated, enlightened person -apparently wonderful English pronunciation!_ asking him about the essence of acting. I smell a real connection between the two.

I understand that, because I work with children and don't want to have my own children. So, that's not a problem, I don't know her reasons she doesn't want it, but for me there us no contradiction.

She didn't have to take care of those children at her own home that's why. Didn't want responsibilities, people like her just want to be involved to show they care.

@@Libra-v1r TBH, I always thought she was a beard for him, because he seemed gay to me.

​@@savannahsputnik1663That is as far away from the truth as you can get!! Those that worked with him and knew him for years, even back in his early theater days said specifically HE WAS NOT GAY OR BISEXUAL! Although he could be flamboyant in parts quite easily, he was in no way gay. This is from people who worked with him and knew him. To even imply otherwise is wrong and misleading. Not only that he was faithful in his relationship with Rima. No matter what kind of relationship they had even if a little unconventional maybe, it didn't matter there was never any rumors of any kind of affairs with anyone ever! He was known to have a strict moral code, their words, to the point of being puritanical. Alan was one-of-a-kind a very special and unique man. That was his character. To imply even, that he was something he was not, is grossly abhorrent. That is mislabeling his sexuality, which I believe is frowned upon these days. Alan was a heterosexual, pure and simple. Just because he was faithful and in his own words, he's never remotely been sexually voracious, does not mean he had affairs or was gay or bisexual.

​@@savannahsputnik1663Alan was not gay or bi that's ridiculous. He was so famous that paparazzi would have found out if there was a remote possibility of him stepping out with another woman or man. There's absolutely no scandal on him. As much as I do not like Rima,he was faithful to her all his life.

That's exactly what I was thinking 🥺

That's from smoking two to three packs of cigarettes a day. Her voice is nothing like dear Alan's! There's no comparison. And by the way, why is she here greeting royalty when her dying husband is lying on the couch watching TV? Shouldn't she be at home with him in case he needs anything? Her priorities were always way off when it came to Alan 😢

What a cold and unfeeling woman. Left her dying husband at home when any other woman would have stayed by his side spending each minute with him knowing he was dying . Alan never was a priority for her and she never cared for him that's why she published his private diaries without his consent.

@@barbarazirger7732 @nicoleterzaki1343 so now you’re getting stuck into her for being a smoker? Shows how desperate you are. ‘And by the way’ this was in January 2015 so Alan wasn’t ’lying on the couch watching TV’. He was busy promoting ALC amongst other things. He wasn’t diagnosed until July 2015 and was very active before and even after his diagnosis. You’re the cold and unfeeling one here you stupid, stupid woman!

I know. I was thinking about that the whole time i was watching it. It was heartbreaking.😥😢😭💔

My heart is still bleeding... 💔😢
