Sarah Silverman will never marry.
The 43-year-old actress – who is in a relationship with ‘Masters of Sex’ actor Michael Sheen – has laughed off reports she is desperate for the actor to propose, insisting she finds the institution of marriage "barbaric".
She tweeted: "Just read that I wanna get married which is hilarious b/c I will never get married.
"Why would I want the govt involved in my love life? Ew. It’s barbaric.(sic)"
Sarah – who previously dated Jimmy Kimmel for five years – spoke out following an article which claimed she had been leaving "pictures of engagement rings all over the place" in a hint that she was ready for Michael to propose.
And the brunette star – who began dating the 45-year-old actor at the beginning of the year – branded the claims "bigoted".
She wrote: ""That s–t never bothers me b/c who cares but I feel like this one is bigoted.
"The Jew girl MUST want a RING! Yich.(sic)"
Sarah – who is vegetarian – previously compared marriage to eating meat, saying it was "gross and f***ing crazy".
She said: "It’s just not for me. I’m a vegetarian, but I don’t have a problem if you want a hamburger. Marriage, to me, is like eating meat. I think it’s gross and f***ing crazy. It’s this superbarbaric, old-timey tradition that no one remembers we don’t have to do anymore.
"I really do believe in love. I’ve experienced it, I’ve had it, so I know it’s real."
