Val Kilmer admitted that one Hollywood breakup left him ‘crying every day’ for half a year | Hollywood News

Actor Val Kilmer had his fair share of Hollywood romances, dating celebrities such as Cindy Crawford, Angelina Jolie, and Cher. But out of all of them, the one that really shattered him was his breakup with Daryl Hannah. In his memoir I’m Your Huckleberry, Kilmer called their breakup the most painful experience of his love life. “Lord knows I’ve suffered heartache. But Daryl was by far the most painful of all,” he admitted. Kilmer passed away on Tuesday in Los Angeles at 65. According to his daughter, he suffered complications from pneumonia. The Batman Forever star had battled health issues for years, and according to Page Six, he had been bedridden for weeks before his death.  His struggle with throat cancer first became public in 2014, and though he recovered, multiple tracheotomies left him with a weakened voice, to the point he was forced to step away from acting for a while. But in 2022, he made a powerful return, reuniting with Tom Cruise in Top Gun: Maverick.  Also read: The Third Edit: Val Kilmer, …
