Matt Damon’s Controversial Claim on Oprah

Matt Damon and Minnie Driver started dating after meeting on the set of Good Will Hunting. Their relationship lasted a year, but ended when Damon told Oprah in 1998 that he was single and didn’t have a girlfriend, though he and Driver were still together at that point.

Driver, while being interviewed by the LA Times after Damon’s announcement, said she found the whole ordeal very inappropriate. She also pointed out that he had declared his love for her on David Letterman a month before that.
