Freida Pinto has spoken for the first time about her split from Dev Patel. The couple decided to end their six-year romance in December 2014, although their break-up wasn’t confirmed until February, during an interview Dev gave to the Guardian.
"We are incredibly close," 24-year-old Dev said. "She's just a really generous, patient human being who has been one of the most impactful people on my life. A lot of my motivation has come from her, from being with her and knowing her."

Dev and Freida started dating after meeting on the set of the 2008 film Slumdog Millionaire. The film won eight Academy Awards, and catapulted its young stars into the spotlight.
Dev has gone on to appear in mainstream films like The Best Exotic Marigold Hotel and Chappie, and also had a recurring role in the hit HBO show The Newsroom.
Freida, meanwhile, has chosen a different path, taking on roles in a number of indie films – including 2011'sTrishna and her new movie Desert Dancer, which tells the true story of dancer Afshin Ghaffarian, who started an underground dance troupe in Tehran, despite a strict religious ban during the 2009 Iranian election.
"I don't think I've made any conventional choice, except for maybe Immortals and Rise of the Planet of the Apes," she told USA Today. "To the outside eyes, it may seem that I've stopped working or that I have not been part of successful films. But I want to be part of these great indie stories."
