Cleese's girl reveals relationship details

John Cleese's girlfriend has revealed that the actor is on a "cocktail of vitamins" so he can keep up with her younger lifestyle.

Barbie Orr, 27, said that the Fawlty Towers actor, who is 42 years her senior, has had hair plugs and new teeth since they began dating in October. He also takes daily supplements.

Orr told the Sunday Mirror that she and Cleese slept together on their third date after meeting at an audition.

"He asked me for my card, for professional reasons I thought at the time. But then he started calling me a lot and it turns out he had gone to my web page and seen me in a bikini. He told me he had fallen in love immediately," the comedienne said.

"I can’t get into what he really looks like naked, but for an old guy, you know, they’re normally saggy down there, but he really has a nice package. He takes a lot of vitamin supplements and eats really well and he works out. His arms are really muscular and he still has amazing legs."

Orr said that the couple are taking things slowly, adding that Cleese is still sore over the breakdown of his marriage to Alyce Faye Eichelberger at the beginning of last year.
