Jason Donovan on the fatal breakup with Kylie Monogue

Do you believe in fatal love, which forever leaves a mark in the heart and then either turns into a sweet memory, or spoils the whole further personal life?

Fatal love

Jason Donovan and Kylie Minogue broke up more than 30 years ago, but for the sexy blonde and the idol of millions of girls who sang the unforgettable hit “Sealed with a Kiss”, their love became exactly fatal and partly broke him.

They met in 1986 on the set of the mega-popular Australian soap opera Neighbors, and soon a romance began between them, created in the heavens of show business, when on-screen love becomes real.

Jason and Kylie were so in love that they even released a joint romantic video Especially For You in 1988. They dated for three years, and their on-screen characters “Neighbors” Scott Robinson and Charlene Mitchell finally got married, much to the delight of viewers, but in 1989 their relationship in real life came to an end.

Kylie’s departure

Almost three decades later, in 2016, Jason Donovan allowed himself to tell the publication a little. Mirror about breaking up with Kylie after she called him from Tokyo and said it was over:

“It was an extremely painful breakup and it took me a long time to recover. To be honest, it took me many years to do that. “

The ambitious Kylie simply went to INXS frontman Michael Hutchence, whom she dated until 1991. Michael subsequently committed suicide in 1997 at the age of 37.

“It would be easier if she ran away with someone else,” Jason admitted. – But she went to the god of rock of that time, to the very guy that I myself secretly wanted to be. And it was a killing blow for me. “

Jason also told Pierce Morgan on Life Stories that his jealousy of her success as a singer also probably contributed to Kylie’s departure from him:

“I loved her madly, but she was becoming popular, and I felt how she eluded me.”

Jason Donovan later repeatedly crossed paths with Kylie and even spoke with her, but the topic of their separation was never touched upon in the conversation.

Life goes on

Jason Donovan married Angela Mallock in 1997 and they have a strong and stable marriage and three children: Gemma, 20, Zach, 19, and Molly, 9.

Kylie dated such famous people as Lenny Kravitz, James Gooding and Olivier Martinez. She parted ways with Joshua Sass in 2017 and now seems to have found love with Paul Solomons, director of GQ.

“Who said that romance is no longer in adulthood? – said recently 52-year-old Kylie. “Of course there is, especially when you meet true love.”
