Olivier Martinez says his love helped girlfriend Kylie Minogue win her breast cancer battle.
The 'Taking Lives' actor - who was described by Kylie as "the most honourable man I've met" during her illness - insists he did everything he possibly could for his lover.
He told Cosmopolitan magazine: "I didn't think about myself at the time. All I did was try my best in the situation. It's important to be honest with yourself. What you say should be what you do. Don't just say, 'I love you'. Show it."
The 41-year-old French star has also revealed his attitude towards death changed when he was involved in a horrific motorbike accident more than a decade ago.
He said: "I broke my back in a motorcycle accident and came close to dying. Doctors told me I'd end up in a wheelchair but I was lucky. The accident helped me learn the true price of life. It put everything in perspective - money, fame. However, I'm no longer afraid of dying, I'm afraid of suffering."

This is all cobbled together bits from old interviews, and unsubstantiated gossip in tabloids..And they use an old photo for an alleged 'new interview'.Do not believe he did any interview.Tabloids and Womens trash mags just love putting words in his mouth.He was away in Romania filming for 3 out her 5 months of chemo so her mother was with her.He was in LA for 3 months.. Jan -March 2006,and back there is June 2006. He did not bother to go to Australia with her.Which had her dash over in a mad flap the day after her shows ended there.This is noe seriuosly bizarre love affair...be that as it may he has not even been photogrpahed with her since 22 December so I jsut do not believe this 'interview' is anything but some mag with time on their hands to sift through tabloid rubbish and pretend they interviwed him.
