When did Kiefer split from Siobhan Bonnouvrier?
On July 6, 2011, it was announced that Kiefer split from his then-girlfriend Siobhan Bonnouvrier.

Why did Kiefer and Julia Roberts split?
Although Kiefer’s engagement to Julia Roberts was plagued with cheating rumors, the Stand By Me actor attributed their split to a combination of their young ages and the pressures of stardom.
The Flatliners co-stars were scheduled to hold their nuptials on June 14, 1991.
However, Julia called off the wedding just three days before the abovementioned date.
He recalled to People: “We were young and we were both very much in love.
“We had decided that we wanted to get married, but then this other thing kind of took over.
“She was arguably the most famous woman in the world and this wedding that was supposed to be something between the two of us became something so big.
“And then, in the middle of that, I think she had the courage…it wasn’t what she wanted to do, in the end.
“And I think it took a lot of courage, even amongst all of that other stuff, to be able to say, ‘I can’t do this.'”
