HOLLYWOOD - Ethan Hawke's marriage to Uma Thurman floundered when her career took off and his began to fail, the actor has confessed.
The pair ended their six-year marriage in 2004, when Thurman's career was on the rise and Hawke's was beginning to wane.
Speaking on talk show Sunday Morning Shootout--due to air this weekend--the actor says, "It's unfair when one person's career is taking off and the other is really suffering.
"What happens--it's not that they're jealous of each other; it's that the person you share your life with isn't in the mood to support. You want to have a pity party for yourself, but they're off to the Golden Globes and you don't want to go because everyone is going to think you are jealous.
"There's a certain geometry to life--that life has a certain math equation to it and if you're never together, you can't build a home.
"Joanne Woodward put her career on the backburner for that marriage (to Paul Newman) to last. And something's got to give."
