The pair dated for eight months in the early 1980s when Carrey was 21 and she was 36. Carrey made a rare comment on their relationship during his 2020 appearance on “The Howard Stern Show,” addressing the misconceptions about their dynamic. Despite Ronstadt (pictured in 1983) being 15 years older than him, Carrey later insisted it wasn’t “some boy-toy kind of situation.” Ron Galella Collection via Getty Images “It may have seemed like some boy-toy kind of situation to somebody looking at it from the outside, but she treated me with incredible respect,” he said of Ronstadt. Carrey continued, “She loved my talent and respected my talent. We used to hang out together and she’d say, ‘You’re going to be where I am. You’re going to deal with all this stuff I’ve dealt with.'” He described his relationship with Ronstadt as a “beautiful eight months,” adding, “We both knew it wasn’t going to be forever, but I have such respect for her.
