Owen WilsonOwen WilsonIt's not nice when people start spreading gossip about you.

And often, poor Hollywood stars just let it go in the knowledge that their nearest and dearest know the truth.

But Owen Wilson has gone out of his way to make sure that people understand the reality of his current dating status - rather than the tabloid version.

His latest words come just days after threatening to sue anyone who accused him of being a reason behind Kate Hudson's recent marriage collapse.

Now Owen's making it clear there isn't even a hint of romance between him and his You, Me And Dupree co-star Kate:

"I'm single despite what people say. I think hopefully that I'll meet someone that I'll want to have a family with, that's what I would like," he stated.
