Ricky Gervais won't get married - because he can afford to buy his own toasters.
The comedian - who has been with partner Jane Fallon for 26 years - doesn't see any point in tying the knot as he is content with his relationship the way it is.
He said: "There's no point. We've got our wills in order, we share everything, we've got everything in both our names, so it's like we're already married, really.
"There just doesn't seem to be any point really. I can afford a toaster myself now."
The 'Office' star also ruled out having children - because he doesn't want to share his money.
He joked: "We decided not to have children for various reasons. One is, they're spongers! It's my money! I love my brother and sister's kids, but they're their responsibility. I can play with them and then walk away.
"I'd adopt but only if he's a 25-year-old lawyer who has already paid his way!"
