Kiefer Sutherland has forgiven Julia for leaving him for his best friend.

Roberts ran off with actor Jason Patric just days before she was due to marry the "24" star 16 years ago.

Sutherland, 40, said: "I commend Julia for seeing how young and silly we were, even as painful and difficult as it was."

But he was not in such forgiving mood when it came to his "Lost Boys"

co-star Patric, adding: "We were friends. I never got a call."

Kiefer, son of acting legend Donald Sutherland, left his wife and children to move in with Roberts just months after meeting her on the set of 1990 movie "Flatliners."

Reports claimed the "Pretty Woman" actress fled to Europe with Patric after learning Sutherland had slept with a stripper.

Julia Roberts is now married to cinematographer Danny Moder, who she met on the set of "The Mexican" in 2002.

Sutherland divorced his wife of eight years Kelly Win in 2004.
