The ex-wife of Hollywood star Richard Dreyfuss has given up on finding Mr. Right — and now hopes to spend the rest of her life with a “love robot” after exhausting the dating pool in Idaho more than a decade ago.
Jeramie Rain Dreyfuss, a former actress and screenwriter, has one unusual wish left, according to her daughter, Emily Dreyfuss.
Speaking about her mother, Emily said all she wants is to fulfill Jeramie’s longtime dream of owning a “sex robot,” the San Francisco Standard reported.
Jeramie clarified to her daughter she never said a “sex robot,” but that a “love robot” to help around the house and snuggle with in bed at the end of her day.
“Well, I want a love robot. I’d like to kiss a beautiful, handsome robot,” she told her daughter.
“I’d like to hang out with a robot. I’d like him to fix things.”
And some nice cold metal to snuggle with, her daughter asked.
“So yes, I’d love to snuggle. He could even sleep in my bed,” Jeramie said.
Oh and in case you were wondering, she said would like the robot to be “anatomically endowed” and have “nice lips.”
Her desire to spend those sunset years with a humanoid robot comes following a series of disastrous relationships with some of Hollywood and the entertainment world’s leading men.
Not only was Rain married to Dreyfuss for more than a decade, she also dated notorious woman chaser Jack Nicholson and singer Bob Dylan.
She said for once in her relationship she wants someone that wants just her, who won’t put their career first.
“Emily, they won’t fight with you. They won’t cheat on you,” Jeramie said, noting she wants the robot to also love her back.
“They won’t leave you. They won’t think you’re too old or not attractive enough. My robot will like me.”
The former actress doesn’t completely blame the other men in her life and fully admits she decided to turn to bots because her “man-picker” was broken.
“Some of them were fantasy men. They’d spin dreams,” Jeramie said.
“Like, ‘Pick a mountaintop anywhere in the world, and we’ll move there and have blond, blue-eyed children,’” she added, name dropping Dylan as the alleged guilty party on that one.
While no such “love robot” exists yet, Emily could buy her mom a shiny Unitree GI Humanoid robot on Amazon for the bargain price of nearly $18,000 today before she turns 79 in August.
The new breed of bots even resemble humans, stand upright and can fold shirts, answer doors, get you coffee and take over back-breaking and monotonous factory work.
But experts say they won’t be able to love us back, at least not yet.
