FRIENDS star David Schwimmer has attacked the press for claiming he was engaged to a porn star.

The 37-year-old - who played ROSS in the hit TV series - has blamed the media for destroying his romantic relationships by printing stories about his fictitious proposals to three women including an X-rated film star.

David fumes, "The press have written that I'm engaged three times when I've been in relationships. Then, when a relationship ends, it's as if my word means nothing. That's why I hate the press.

"My ex-girlfriend CARLA (ALAPONT) was a model, she did a couple of shoots without a top on and so she's a porn star. It's disgusting and damaging, to me, to her and her family. As if I'd date a porn star."
