"Humiliated" Russell Crowe responds to magazine reports he’s dating Fifi Box

Russell Crowe has responded to reports suggesting he’s dating popular radio personality Fifi Box, with the 54-year-old saying he isn’t rushing into a new relationship.

New Idea ran a cover last week suggesting the Gladiator star was pursuing a romantic relationship with the Fox FM broadcaster with the caption: "Russell & Fifi: We're so in love!"

But when readers opened the magazine, they were quick to realise that the cover related to two separate articles, with Box’s focused on her romance with Damien Richardson.

The Oscar-winner took to Instagram to squash the rumour:

"Oh ... and this ... Something is so wrong with the leadership of this magazine. They keep piling on the humiliations. I am not in a relationship with this young lady and never have been," he wrote.

Box’s radio team also quashed the report, saying, "We can confirm that Fifi is not in a relationship with Russell Crowe, despite this cover making it look like they are."

It’s been a tumultuous period for Crowd, after finalising his divorce to Danielle Spencer this month and having an estate sale which pulled in an impressive $3.7 million.
