According to the website Contactmusic, Farrell made some advances toward British actress Eileen Atkins, 72. The woman revealed the news two years ago, but now says that she regrets telling the world about the advances from the Alexander and Miami Vice star.
Atkins said, "Colin was adorable. He sent me flowers, came to my first night in America, stood in my dressing room and said, ‘I should be so lucky.’"
