Carrey says he, McCarthy won't wed

BURBANK, Calif., Feb. 6 (UPI) -- Even though he's wild about Jenny McCarthy, actor and comedian Jim Carrey said during an interview in Burbank, Calif., that the two "never" will wed.

"(We're) never getting married, but we're never getting divorced, which is fantastic," Carrey said in an interview with "Access Hollywood" that aired Tuesday.

The star of the soon-to-be-released thriller "The Number 23" said McCarthy was a wonderful person who is "much deeper than she's ever received credit for."

Timing -- and previously unsuccessful relationships -- are the keys to the successful relationship he has with McCarthy, Carrey told Shaun Robinson.

"She is a person who is very much about encouraging the best in me and I in her," he said.

When asked if he'd present McCarthy with a ring to show his dedication and friendship, Carrey cracked, "I bought her a Chloe purse. Isn't that good enough?"
