(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Alexander Skarsgrd is not "stressing" about being single because he's been so unhappy in past relationships.

The Swedish star split from Kate Bosworth earlier this year. Since then he's been linked to several unnamed women, but he insists they are usually just friends.

The star is trying not to focus on his love life at the moment as he believes things will be sorted out in time.

"If it's right, love is amazing. I've been very happy in relationships, very miserable in relationships, very happy single, very miserable single," he said. "I'm not stressing about it, but I want to get married and have children. I come from a family with six younger siblings. I love kids. That day will come. I've got plenty of time."

Alexander and Kate haven't discussed the reasons for the end of their romance and he says they never will in public. He has only good things to say about his former partner.

"I've got nothing but love for her. She's amazing, a great actress and person," Alexander told the December edition of UK magazine Elle. (C) Cover Media
