Mike Comrie gave a brief interview to the Edmonton Sun which included some references to Hilary Duff. Mike says that he gets boo-ed every time he goes back to Edmonton - that a bitter breakup 5 years ago led to unhappy fans. And that spread to the point where people may not really know what they are boo-ing for. It was the reason he left Edmonton, and he details more on that.

He talkes very kindly of Hilary and their relationship:

“It’s been great, pretty serious since the summer,” he said. “She’s a good person — does a lot of things for charity, a lot of things people don’t know. She’s great to be around, we have a lot of fun together.”

Although Mike values his privacy in New York, that’s something he obviously doesn’t have with Hilary around.

“She’s in a business where her fans want to know what she’s doing. They’re interested in seeing how her day to day life is going. I realize that and understand that. I guess that comes with the territory of dating somebody in that business. But you’re not in a city of a million people that are keeping an eye on you and knowing everything you do. I can duck out sometimes.”

Well, it sounds like Mike has a good head on his shoulders, hey? Very sensible and understanding.
