is now reported to be embarrassed at the affair, which lasted just two weeks. “What does it make me look like that I have slept with Alan Partridge?” she allegedly told a friend. “Given the A-grade stars I’ve dated it’s embarrassing. I mean ... Alan Partridge!” The friend went on to tell the newspaper that Love, the former lead singer of the rock band Hole, claimed that Coogan had a sex and drug addiction and said no decisions had been made about the future concerning the baby. Coogan’s spokesman has denied any romance, insisting they are “just good friends”. The singer, 41, who has an 11-year-old daughter from her marriage to Cobain, is undergoing a 28-day drug treatment programme. She was ordered into rehab after using drugs while on probation and will be sentenced for the violations next month. Coogan, 39, was divorced from his wife of sixteen months, Caroline Hickman, last month» (Sophie Kirkham, The Guardian, 22 agosto 2005). Inoltre, due anni dopo la fine della sua relazione con Courney Love, Coogan è stato accusato dalla cantante di essere stato la causa del tentato suicidio commesso da Owen Wilson: «British comedien Steve Coogan has been blamed for the apparent suicide attempt of Hollywood heartthrob Owen Wilson. Coogan’s former lover Courtney Love yesterday said his hard-living party lifestyle had drawn in the actor and helped accelerate his downward spiral into drugs and depression. Wilson, 38, has been recovering in hospital after reportedly slashing his wrists and taking a cocktail of pills on Sunday, apparently devastated over his break-up with actress Kate Hudson. Miss Love, 43, who had an affair with Coogan after he moved to the U.S. three years ago, said: “Under normal circumstances I would not comment but I care too much about Owen. I went through it with Steve. I was just out of rehab and he was right there with the drugs. I tried to warn Owen. I tried to warn his friends. I hope from the bottom of my heart that Owen stays the hell away from that guy.” Wilson has allegedly been battling an addiction to cocaine and heroin as well as struggling with depression. Rows about his wild ways were said to have contributed to the break-up with Miss Hudson two months ago. While they were dating Miss Hudson, 27, reportedly banned visits from 42
Wilson’s friend Coogan, whose real life persona is a world away from his frumpy TV character Alan Partridge. Wilson’s friends have privately placed the blame for Owen’s problems squarely on Coogan, who has battled his own demons. The comedian, who starred alongside Wilson in several films, has admitted to drug-taking and being a serial womaniser - traits which his new friend has also been accused of. Wilson’s circle of friends became so concerned about him that some - including former Cheers star Woody Harrelson - tried to intervene. Harrelson encouraged him to take a break from his party lifestyle at his home in Maui, Hawaii. A source told US magazine: “He went to Maui to kick his habit and was like a baby on the couch.” Santa Monica police recorded his apparent breakdown on Sunday as an attempted suicide. The actor was yesterday being watched round the clock by doctors at Cedars Sinai hospital in LA. Yesterday he pulled out of filming for the movie Tropic Thunder directed by his friend and Starsky and Hutch co-star Ben Stiller. The film is already six weeks in production and is just one of a number of projects the actor had been due to work on over the coming months. Coogan, 41, who was also due to work on tropic Thunder, said the allegations he was implicated in the suicide attempt were: “Unfounded, unhelpful and hurtful to all concerned.” Wilson first met Miss Hudson while filming You, Me and Dupree. Their six-month affair ended her marriage to Black Crowes singer Chris Robinson and led friends to hope he would give up his playboy ways - to little avail. But the actor was said to be devastated when she was pictured, shortly after their split, cuddling her new boyfriend, comic actor Dax Shephard» (Tahira Yaqoob, The Daily Mail, 30 agosto 2007). 20.

Durante l’intervista rilasciata a Sam Wollaston, Coogan non negava la possibilità di voler continuare a cercare di sfondare a Hollywood: «Is Hollywood what he does now? “Basically, there’s an opportunity there, and I’ll pursue it until I make so many mistakes that I have to come home again.” He’s also writing a new TV character for himself, a 43
