A candid interview suggests that the 37-year-old actor's marriage to model Agyness Deyn, 29, last week, was spurred by a whirlwind romance.
The 40-year-old indie singer, who lived with the actor in his Los Angeles home with his 14-year-old daughter Lucia until their recent split, told The Stool Pigeon that she had been finishing her new album 'around the time' they broke up.
The Atlanta, Georgia-born singer, who has suffered a nervous breakdown in the past, tweeted on April 20: 'I HAVE FINISHED MY RECORD'.
She told the music blog as part of an interview, published on June 18, 2012, to promote the album: 'The timing couldn't have been more distracting, to say the least. It was down to the wire and [I was] really suffering, in the end. It hurts.'

She also revealed that she had become something of a second mother to Lucia, who is the daughter of Mr Ribisi's previous wife, actress Mariah O'Brien.
'I entered a long relationship which I really wanted to be successful,' she said. 'You know that thing we're all raised to want: a beautiful life with children? There's this part of me who wants to be a mother...I was trying to grow my personal life in a way I never did before.'

Mr Ribisi's wedding to Miss Deyn came as a surprise to many, as it was not widely known that the pair were dating.
The news was confirmed yesterday in a statement from Mr Ribisi's publicist after Crown City News snapped a photograph of the couple moments before they tied the knot at Los Angeles County Registrar.
