Jason Donovan has revealed he still can’t talk to his former flame Kylie Minogue, despite separating 27 years ago.
The 47-year-old admitted the split was a “pretty big punch to take” when Kylie left him for INXS front man, Michael Hutchence.
“It was an extremely painful parting of the ways and, without doubt, I took a long time to recover from it,” Jason said.
“Years, definitely.”
“It was bad enough that she’d run off with anybody, but she happened to run into the arms of the greatest rock god of the period, the very guy who I secretly wanted to be. That was a pretty big punch to take.”
“I’ve since bumped into Kylie quite a few times,” he added.
“The break-up never comes up in conversation. We’re not close enough to get into that.”
Jason and Kylie began dating after starring together as teens on Neighbours.
Jason is now married and Kylie is in a relationship with British actor Joshua Sasse.
