Chris Evans is "endlessly grateful" for having met his ex-girlfriend Jenny Slate.
The 35-year-old actor recently split from his ‘Gifted’ co-star, but has said she will "always" be a part of his life and has nothing but kind words to say about her as he "cannot find something bad" about her.
He said: "You find that you cannot help to have respect for her. You spend five minutes with her and you cannot find something bad to say about her if you tried.
"You know, relationships are tricky, there are lot of moving pieces. But I am endlessly grateful for having met her. She will be in my life always."
And the ‘Captain America’ star also dubbed Jenny, also 35, as "an incredible human being", as he praised her acting skills.
He added to USA Today: "We were both rooting for this. She’s an incredible human being, a very, very special person. We’re all lucky she’s so driven, she’s going to make some amazing art in her life."
It’s not the first time Chris has praised the ‘Zootopia’ actress either, as he previously branded her as his "favourite" person.
He said: "She’s my favourite human. She’s the best. I’ve never ever ever met someone in my life who has a mastery of the English language the way she does.
"She’ll give you one sentence and there’s no fat to it. You’re like, ‘You just chose such an unbelievable collection of words that beautifully articulate what you say.’
"It’s like an art form talking with her, because the visuals associated with her expression are just so colourful.
She’s so vulnerable, so honest, so interested in other people more than herself, she’s incredibly compassionate, there’s just nothing to not love about her."
Despite their split, the feeling of admiration seems to be mutual between the pair as Jenny previously described Chris as "lovely" in the wake of their break up.
She said: "I don’t mind talking about him at all. He’s a lovely person. I don’t know. It feels like such a huge thing. Last year was a giant, big year for my heart. I’ve never, ever thought to keep anything private because that’s not really what I’m like, and now I’m learning those things, and they’re weird, kind of demented lessons to learn."
