"I am responsible," the hunk admits on Simi Garewal's show
It was an open secret for the longest time and now John Abraham has finally confessed the real reason that he and long-time girlfriend Bipasha Basu broke up.
John appears on Simi Garewal's new show Simi Selects 'India's Most Desirable' in an episode that will air tomorrow (July 10) and in it he takes responsibility for the split. "I was not ready to commit when the relationship needed culmination,” he said admitting that he wasn’t ready to get married to Bipasha even after all those years of being together.
"It was a beautiful relationship but it doesn't exist anymore," he added. John also said that he had “grown out of the relationship”.
“I’m probably the reason that this relationship didn’t work,” he admitted to Simi.
John went on to say, "The silence lasted too long and I guess it was time (to break up). I’m solely responsible for the split — I did not want to get married.”
He also called the breakup an 'amicable' one, and said that they were never disloyal in the relationship. "We had decided, if we ever parted ways it, won’t be for another man or woman,” he said.
He went on to say that to be on his own was "painful" but "you have to move on."
The former couple first worked together in 'Jism' (2003), and later in 'Madhoshi' (2004) and 'Dhan Dhana Dhan Goal' (2007).
