According to Thompson's statement, they couldn't go any further because of her busy schedule. She stated, 

”If we’re being honest, my first marriage failed because I was doing this job and I was never home and I couldn’t allocate relationships with my boyfriend. There are a lot of things that you put on your back burner because of your profession”
