Apparently Lara is now seeing Dino Morea, and they make an uneasy threesome.But Lara has not made any such affairs official. On her life with Dorjee she says,” Yes, we were together for a very long time,” admits Lara, “And were each other’s strength for most of the ‘growing up’ years of our life. We’ve seen a lot together, but things happen, and we have to move on. There are some people who will always be special.”
When asked whether she has started to be in love again, she said,” I’ll take each day as it comes. I’m not looking at getting into another relationship just yet. I think for me right now, life is at a stage where I’m getting good work. I realize that I’ve got a limited number of years and I really want to give it everything I’ve got. I haven’t been single in a really long time. I’m re-learning being single all over again, and loving it. some Rumors are she had been dated with indian tennis star Mahesh bupathi. but Denied that says they are just good friends.
She is enjoying being single again and her home life is occupied with her dogs, her sisters and her friends. As for Dorjee, a link between one’s ex and one’s best friend can be heart breaking but Dorjee is quite ignorant about it and declares, that he has “no personal takes on them.
