British actor JOSEPH FIENNES’ life has been turned upside down since moving out to Hollywood – he compares his new Los Angeles existence to a “witness protection” program.

The Shakespeare In Love star moved to Los Angeles to set up home with his then-lover, model Maria Dolores Dieguez, after landing regular TV work on sci-fi drama hit Flash Forward.

And Fiennes claims living in L.A. is a completely different experience than his existence in the U.K. – because he has started afresh in a every aspect of his life.

He tells Britain’s Now magazine, “I feel like I’m in witness protection. I’ve got a new wife, a new bank account, a new car and a new home. It’s been exhilarating, but also exhausting.”

British actor JOSEPH FIENNES has dismissed rumours he is set to become a first-time father – insisting his new wife is not pregnant.

The Shakespeare In Love star, 39, married Swiss model, Maria Dolores Dieguez, 27, in Tuscany, Italy over the summer (Aug09).

And just weeks after the wedding, the couple was rumoured to be expecting their first child following a report in British tabloid the Mail on Sunday.

Fiennes is adamant the rumours aren’t true, but he’s looking forward to having children in the future.

He tells Britain’s Now magazine, “No it isn’t (true). A newspaper said I made an announcement, which felt like I opened my French doors and said, ‘Ladies and gentleman, I just want you to know…’ But it just never happened. I’d love to have kids, I grew up in a large family.”
