Diane Keaton often discussed her decision to never marry despite dating some of Hollywood’s most eligible bachelors in the 1970s.
“Today I was thinking about this. I’m 73 and I think I’m the only one in my generation, and maybe before, who has been a single woman all her life,” she told People in 2019.
The actress — who died at age 79 on October 11 — had multiple high profile relationships with her Hollywood costars early in her career. Keaton was a muse for actor-director Woody Allen during their few years together as a couple, in addition to dating her Godfather and Reds costars Al Pacino and Warren Beatty, respectively.
Keaton became a mother relatively late in life when she adopted two children, daughter Dexter and son Duke, in her 50s but never felt the need to tie the knot.
