Irish actor Jonathan Rhys Meyers is a dud when it comes to love - insisting he doesn't believe in romance.
The hunky star, who portrays Henry VIII in romp-filled TV hit 'The Tudors', is adored by legions of female fans across the world and has been romantically linked to a string of beauties including Toni Collette, Rachael Leigh Cook and Estella Warren.
But the 31-year-old admits he struggles to woo potential lovers with traditional romantic tactics.
He tells People.com: "I'm not a romantic guy at all.
"It's not that I don't believe in romance. It's that I don't believe in dinner for two by the ocean, walking down the beach holding hands - that version of romance.
"I think I'm probably romantic, but I'm not outwardly romantic. I'm not a player."
