Dennis Quaid postpones wedding
Dennis Quaid and fiancee Laura Savoie are putting their upcoming wedding on hold, amid “travel issues”. Sources, however, insist the delay isn’t due to the coronavirus outbreak.
The Parent Trap (1998) actor was set to tie the knot with Savoie, 26, later this year.
A source told Us Weekly magazine, “Laura and Dennis are postponing their wedding and are telling people it’s due to ‘travel issues’ and not coronavirus.’’
The outbreak of the virus — which was declared a pandemic earlier this week — has caused the US to ban all Americans from flying to all European countries except the UK and Ireland. There are several travel bans in place for those looking to head to other hot spots, including China, South Korea, and Iran.
It is unknown whether these travel bans have impacted their nuptials.
Quaid, 65, popped the question to the PhD student in October last year during a trip to Turtle Bay in Oahu, Hawaii (US).
The actor later insisted that he isn’t bothered by their 39year age gap or by the comments others make about the difference.
When asked if the age gap criticism affects him, the actor said, “No, it really doesn’t bother us. I didn’t go out looking for an age gap or someone really younger than me. You have no control over who you fall in love with. I don’t fall in love easy. But I can’t let what a few people think control all that. I’ve been married three times and this is the final one, I know it is. I feel like I have a real partner in life.’’
Prior to his relationship with Savoie, Quaid was married to actor PJ Soles from 1978 to 1983, actor Meg Ryan from 1991 to 2001 and Kimberly Buffington from 2004 to 2018.
He shares son Jack, 27, with Ryan, 57, and twins Thomas and Zoe, 12, with Buffington, 47.
