Denzel Washington has revealed that he's a big boy and can cope with the recent rumours about his private life.
The Oscar-winning actor is frankly puzzled by all the chit-chat.
But now he's hit back at reports that his marriage is in trouble because of his alleged womanising ways.
He tells the Hollywood issue of Essence magazine:
"I've heard (the rumours). Having babies, I've left home and all this... I'm a big boy. I can take it.
"But what bothers me about all of that stuff is the effect on the family."
He concludes that he and Pauletta - his wife of 22 years - are standing firm together to fight the rumours.
