Knightley Says She is Too Independent to Get Married
British actress Keira Knightley has ruled out marriage in the near future because she believes she can look after herself.
The 22-year-old star of "Pirates of the Caribbean" is involved in a steady relationship with her boyfriend Rupert Friend. Contactmusic.com reports that she is following her mother's advice to not depend on a man for financial and emotional needs.
She said, "I'm from a very liberal upbringing. My mum's like, 'No, you get a job, you support yourself, never look to a man to support you.' I think getting married and having children would be lovely. But not right now or really any time soon."
