Dominic Monaghan opens up about his breakup with Evangeline Lilly

The The Lord of the Rings The actor recently opened up about his past relationships, revealing that his biggest heartbreak was breaking up with lost co-star

“I’ve only really had my heart broken once in my life,” shared Monaghan Anna Faris podcast Unskilled. “I was dating an actress lost named Evangeline Lilly, who, you know, later got her own name. I really don’t know how she would explain that narrative, but from my perspective, it was probably the first time in my life that I was all in.”

The actor, who dated Lilly from 2004 to 2007, noted that they even discussed marriage and children. However, Monaghan said his drinking and partying ultimately led to the split, saying: “Even though I was doing my job, and I was a very dedicated actor at the time lost, I would only consider it a day off if I was drunk on Friday and Saturday nights. I thought it was normal.”

Monaghan continued: “I think if you’re a heavy drinker, maybe your behavior and your choices and your mood is up for debate, and I think Evie was pretty square in the middle… I’ve always been a guy who wanted more.”
