Keira Knightley and her boyfriend Rupert Friend use web cameras to keep their relationship alive. The “Cheri” actor – who has been dating Keira since they starred together in 2005’s “Pride and Prejudice” – admits it is difficult to be apart when they are working on different film projects, so the pair have come up with a modern way to keep in contact. When asked how he and Keira make their relationship work, Rupert told BANG Showbiz, “We use Skype… old school!”

The 27-year-old actor also relies on the computer programme which allows users to speak to and watch each other using microphones and web cameras to contact friends in England. He explained at the UK premiere of his latest movie “Cheri” at London’s Cine lumiere, Institut Francais, “I use the computer to keep in touch with everybody. I don’t really know anything about computers but I think email and things like that are pretty great inventions.”
