Jim Carrey didn't stay quiet when his ex-girlfriend Jenny McCarthy accused him of refusing to visit her autistic son when she asked him to after they broke up. The actor didn't deny that he didn't see the kid, but he hinted he had his own reason.

"I will always do what I believe is in the best interest of Evan's well being," the "Bruce Almighty" star said in a statement to the press. He added, "It's unfortunate that Evan's privacy is not being considered. I love Evan very much and will miss him always."

Jenny called out Jim when doing an interview on Howard Stern's radio show on Monday, June 4. The former Playboy Playmate said, "I've tried to ask [Jim] numerous times [to see Evan], because my son still asks."
