LOS ANGELES, Calif. --

Dennis Quaid is firing back at ex-wife Meg Ryan for continuing to publicly discuss their divorce and alleged infidelity that took place in their relationship.

While promoting her recent film, “The Women,” Meg told InStyle, “Dennis was not faithful to me for a long time, and that was very painful.”

The actress repeated the infidelity allegation to ABC’s Diana Sawyer, saying, “I just feel like every now and then you have to fill in the gaps for people.”

Now, Dennis has responded to Meg’s claims.

“It was eight years ago, and I find it unbelievable that Meg continues publicly to rehash and rewrite the story of our relationship. Also, I find it regrettable that our son, Jack, has to be reminded in a public way of the turmoil and pain that every child feels in a divorce,” he told The New York Daily News’ Rush & Molloy.

The actor, who is now married and has twins with Kimberly Buffington, went on to say, “I, myself, have moved on years ago and am fortunate to have a happy, beautiful family.”

Dennis also squashed recent reports that his custody and visitation rights to their son, Jack, are linked to his sobriety.

“Meg and I have always had joint custody of Jack without any stipulations whatsoever,” he said.
