Where Does Emma Stone And Jim Carrey's Relationship Stand Since His Crush Confession?

At the time, the Dumb and Dumber actor professed his feelings for the Cruella actress, she was romantically involved with Andrew Garfield.

The star made an up-close clip that appeared to have been filmed indoors as he addressed Emma Stone. Carrey started by stating that his message was for Stone. Per THR, he began:

"Emma, I just wanted to let you know that I think you're all the way beautiful. Not just pretty, but you know, smart and kind-hearted. And if I were a lot younger, I would marry you, and we would have chubby little freckle-faced kids."

The actor went on to gush about all the fun they would have together if they were a couple. He mentioned, 'We'd laugh all day long, go camping, play Yahtzee, tell ghost stories by the fire..."
