The Oscar winner explained,
“I don’t date. Highly unlikely. I don’t remember anyone calling me, going, ‘This is So-and-So, I’d like to take you out.’ They don’t happen. Of course not,”
The actress, somewhere in the interview also talked about the companionship she shares with her dog, Reggie.
The Annie Hall actress said,
“A friend of mine gave her to me. I didn’t even ask for her. He came to me and said, ‘I think you need this dog.’ I was like, ‘Okay, I guess?’ Of course, now I just love her,”
“Dogs are irresistible. They’re just idiots. Reggie is a big jerk, and she’s hilarious.”
In January, Diane was asked about the last time she went on a date. She answered,
“Let’s [say] 15 years. They probably just thought, ‘Enough’s enough … she’s too weird.’ I’m kind of odd, but I’m doing fine. Someday, someone will marry me. Maybe one of these nice men today that have to deal with me today.”

Keaton never actually wanted to be a wife. In 2019, in an interview with People magazine, she said,
“Today I was thinking about this,”

“I’m 73 and I think I’m the only one in my generation and maybe before who has been a single woman all her life.”
Diane dated many actors like Woody Allen, Warren Beatty, and Al Pacino among others.
However, she does not regret being a single woman because she felt she needed more of a maternal aspect.
She added,
”I don’t think it would have been a good idea for me to have married, and I’m really glad I didn’t, and I’m sure they’re happy about it too.”
Diane is famous for her quirky comic roles and dramatic roles in movies like The Godfather series, Book Club, and Father of the Bride, to name a few.
