Despite being one of the most successful actresses of her generation, Anna Kendrick has managed to keep a surprisingly low profile with regard to her personal life.<\/p>\n
In fact, over the course of her 20 or so years in the spotlight, Kendrick has avoided making any sort of public comment on her family or relationship status.<\/p>\n
So fans were surprised when the 37-year-old opened up about a recent heartbreak during an appearance on Dax Shepard\u2019s podcast.<\/p>\n
Kendrick kicked off the unexpected reveal by referencing a live-in partner whom she dated for several years.<\/p>\n<\/noscript>Anna Kendrick attends the RBC Hosted \u201cAlice, Darling\u201d Cocktail Party At RBC House Toronto International Film Festival 2022 on September 11, 2022 in Toronto, Ontario.

We had embryos together, this was my person,\u2019\u201d she told Shepard.<\/p>\n
\u201cI remember telling my brother, when things had first kind of gone down, \u2018I\u2019m living with a stranger. Like, I don\u2019t know what\u2019s happening,\u2019\u201d Kendrick continued. <\/p>\n
\u201cIt wasn\u2019t just the \u2018Oh, I\u2019m losing a relationship.\u2019 It was that I believed that if we broke up or, you know, if he left basically, it was a confirmation that it\u2019s because I\u2019m impossible, I\u2019m lucky that he\u2019s even tolerating my bulls\u2014t.\u201d<\/p>\nWASHINGTON, DC \u2013 SEPTEMBER 24: Anna Kendrick attends HISTORYTalks 2022 on September 24, 2022 in Washington, DC.

\u201cThere was an inherent thing of me being so rejectable that this person who loved me very deeply for six years, it suddenly occurred to him, how awful I was or something,\u201d she said. <\/p>\n
\u201cThe shame, that lingers much longer.\u201d<\/p>\nWe love her. She\u2019s perfect. Dare we say, she is\u2026 pitch perfect.

\u201cI did start going to Al-Anon while all this was going on,\u201d she said.<\/p>\n
\u201cI mean, look, I truly dismantled my life, and at first, that was as a reaction to the accusation that I was crazy, and I was the one causing the problem,\u201d Anna added.<\/p>\nAnna Kendrick attends the \u201cAlice, Darling\u201d Premiere during the 2022 Toronto International Film Festival at Roy Thomson Hall on September 11, 2022 in Toronto, Ontario.

\u201cSo, I had a conversation with CAA, my agency and said I need to take time off, I have a mental health problem,\u201d she told Shepard.<\/p>\n
\u201cI started seeing two therapists a week and I started trying to learn to meditate and I got into Al-Anon,\u201d Kendrick shared. <\/p>\nTORONTO, ONTARIO \u2013 SEPTEMBER 11: Anna Kendrick attends the \u201cAlice, Darling\u201d Premiere during the 2022 Toronto International Film Festival at Roy Thomson Hall on September 11, 2022 in Toronto, Ontario.

Tell me how to stop feeling anything.\u2019\u201d<\/p>\n
Kendrick briefly dated Bill Hader in 2021, but it seems she\u2019s referring to a previous relationship here.<\/p>\n
We wish her all the best in her continued recovery, and we look to seeing what her career has in store.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n
