At the time, Matt revealed his and Minnie's breakup during an appearance on Oprah in 1998, with Minnie alleging this is when she also learned they'd broken up (though Matt has refuted her claim.)

"Well, I'm single," the Jason Bourne alum said during the January episode. "I was with Minnie for a while, but we're not really romantically involved anymore. We're just really good friends, and I love her dearly….I care about her a lot. We care about each other a lot. It wasn't meant to be, you know? And if it's not meant to be, then it's not meant to be."

For her part, Minnie told the Los Angeles Times only months later, "It's unfortunate that Matt went on Oprah; it seemed like a good forum for him to announce to the world that we were no longer together, which I found fantastically inappropriate. Of course, he was busy declaring his love for me on David Letterman a month previously."
