(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Diane Kruger impresses Joshua Jackson by cooking for him.

The German star has been dating Joshua since 2006 but still takes time out to pamper him. She finds whipping up culinary delights never fails to lift his mood.

"[I impress him] with German food - he loves it," she laughed.

Diane has no plans to wed Joshua but that doesn't mean their relationship isn't serious. The star loved spending time with her 33-year-old partner because he makes her feel like a better person.

"He is extremely approachable, interested in all sorts of things. So he is a very good influence on me," she told German magazine In.

Diane, 35, has strict rules about her relationship. As both she and Joshua work in movies they often have to spend time apart, but she ensures they don't go too long without seeing each other.

"I want to have a relationship where we see each other in the day and sleep in the same bed for at least two weeks," she explained. (C) Cover Media
