Amanda Seyfried saves letters from ex-boyfriend

London: Hollywood actress Amanda Seyfried has saved all the love letters from her former boyfriend as she considers them to be her good luck charm. The `Mamma Mia!` star, who is currently dating co-star Dominic Cooper, used to exchange romantic notes with a former boyfriend and says she still holds on to them as they help to inspire her, Contactmusic reported.

"Me and my previous boyfriend used to write each other love notes from time to time even though we lived close by and it was nice. I keep them for good luck and something to inspire me," said Seyfried. The 24-year-old actress is playing the role of Savannah Curtis in new film `Dear John` who stays in touch with her soldier boyfriend by post. "The last time I wrote a letter was at Christmas, in my childhood bedroom, as a response to a letter I had received. And it was the most beautiful letter I had ever written," she said. Seyfried, who co-stars with Channing Tatum in the film, shot it in Charleston, South Carolina, and she is now keen to buy a property there and renovate it. "I loved being in Charleston - it`s so beautiful and the people are amazing. I want to buy a house there and there`s actually a property I`ve seen, which I want to buy and fix up. It`s a dream life down there," she said. IANS
