'Unfaithful' Lenny Kravitz

Lenny Kravitz finds it hard to be "faithful to women".

The 'American Woman' singer - who has been romantically linked to stars including Nicole Kidman, Kylie Minogue and Madonna - claims his father Sy's serial infidelity left him with so many "issues" he ended up cheating himself.

He said: "My father hurt my mother Roxie a lot, not physically but emotionally through his affairs, which was hard to witness as a kid. I moved out of my home when I was 15 because of my dad.

"When I was 18 my dad told me, 'You'll do the same thing as me one day.' When your father tells you that you'll end up being unfaithful like him that's something that can follow you around for a long time.

"I had lots of issues when it came to being faithful to women and I've had to fight it a lot in my life. Infidelity has been partly responsible for ending some of my relationships."

Kravitz later made peace with his father, who died from leukaemia in 2005.

He said: "Our relationship healed a lot shortly before he died, and for that I am grateful."

Kravitz has a 19-year-old daughter, Zoe, from his six-year marriage to 'The Cosby Show' star Lisa Bonet, which ended in 1993.
