What celebrity couples have made you go “huh...”?

[AngeloMysterioso]

In the spirit of daft sleb twaddle, what celeb pairings have you read about and would never have thought of as a couple in a million years?

For example

Harry & Meghan- knew of her from Suits but when I read about her and Harry for the first time I just thought “now that’s random!”. Particularly given his previous history of exclusively dating blonde Sloaney types...

Elon Musk and Grimes- after showing a preference for gorgeous young actresses (Talulah Riley and Amber Heard) I wouldn’t have placed him with a quirky electro pop singer who makes vulva-shaped jewellery on the side.

Lily Allen and David Harbour (but they do seem very sweet together)
Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston (RIP Tayto)
Kourtney Kardashian (I think that’s the right one) and Travis from Blink 182.
Phoebe Dynevor (from Bridgerton) and Pete Davidson (although he has a history of “huh” girlfriends- Kate Beckinsale for example)
Millie Mackintosh and Professor Green (who didn’t last very long to be fair)

This isn’t a criticism of any of these couples btw, if you’re happy you’re happy!

Anyone else read about a pair and thought “What? How??”

The friendship between Dennis Rodman and Kim Jong Un

@msbevvy

Disgraced doctor Andrew Wakefield and Elle MacPherson!

Yes!

Boris and...anyone.
Trump and...anyone...
Gove ..,urrrrh! ... ditto

@Gameofbones

Apparently Tom cruise was amazing in bed according to Cher.

I get the impression Kourtney K and Travis are having the kind of ridiculous sex that Angelina Jolie and Billy Bob were having. That can’t stop fucking each other but it will fizzle out soon enough obsessive sex. I remember watching an interview with Angelina and Billy Bob at a red carpet event and he said ‘we fucked in the car on the way here.’

Scott is having sex with a ridiculous amount of teenagers to try and make her jealous and come back to him.

Jordan was pregnant with Harvey when she ‘stole’ GG’s virginity which is why everyone lost their shit over it.

The one that I never got is David Walliams with Lara Stone. David Walliams sets me on edge every day of the week.

Agree about what you said about the sex life of Kourtney and Travis You can tell that these two are at it like rabbits

Wasn't there a rumour about Angelina Jolie and Michael Gove? Or was it Jeremy Hunt?

It's all too mindboggling.

Somebody already beat me to it but Woody Allen and Soon Yi Previn.
Steve Tyler took guardianship of a teenage girl called Julia Holcomb so he could live with her and have sex with her. (I know these don’t count as “celebrity couples” but just a reminder how gross some famous men are).

I’m shocked Elon and Grimes are still together. I thought they’d break up straight after the baby was born.

Billie Piper and Chris Evans
Gwyneth Paltrow and Chris Martin
Amanda Holden and Les Dennis
Madonna and Guy Ritchie

None of them are still together. The men just seemed a bit too non-descript for the women.

Michael Gove and Sarah Vine
He appears to be quite serious while she appears to be a bit of a free spirit. I just wouldn’t put them together.
Then again, you know what they say about the serious men...., they are demons in the bedroom

I swear I remember Spencer from the third UK series of 'Big Brother' went out with Sasha Alexander from 'Rizzoli & Isles'. That was a curious one.

@Whitewolf2

David Schwimmer and Tina from S club 7!

These two dated?? What an odd pairing

Jennifer Lopez and Ben Affleck then getting back together recently

@Grossbuttrue

Mary Kate Olsen and Olivier Sarkozy,

Yeah that one for me was weird.

Liz Hurley and Shane Warne
Rachel Parris & Marcus Brigstocke- 2 comedians but from different eras
One couple I was a bit whaaat at was Seth from the OC & Blair from Gossip Girl. Like reality copying art

I'm sure I heard Steve Tyler was 'with' Alicia Silverstone and that they met because she was friends with Liv. But I've just googled and can't find anything so maybe that was just a rumour (or I imagined it?!).

I'd love to know what it is about Michael Sheen

@3CCC yes, especially because Adam Brody and Rachel Bilson dated for a few years. Blair was basically the Summer of Gossip Girl!

@Whitewolf2

David Schwimmer and Tina from S club 7!

Also, didn't he date Natalie Imbruglia and that was who 'Torn' was about?

Michael Sheen is gorgeous.

@Standrewsschool

Fascinating thread.

Chritian Horner And Geri Halliwell - especially as he had only just had a baby with his previous partner.

Was surprised there was such a short time between his DD being born and him starting to date Geri (about 5 months) but I'm not sure if he was actually "with" his DD mother?

Stacey Dooley and the weedy Kevin from Strictly.

The biggest one for me is -

John Lennon and Yoko

I will never understand why a man that could have had any woman he wanted, would chose her.

Yes that seems shallow, but let’s be honest, you don’t get A-lister men going out with women that aren’t really attractive generally speaking.

Exactly!!!

Did not know some of these couplings ever existed 🤯🤯🤯

I can also never quite wrap my head around Edwina Currie & John Major

Definitely Liz Hurley and Shane Warne for me - always got the impression they had very filthy, frequent sex

Reading this thread I always wonder how many A list stars are gay but can’t come out because they fear they will lose work and fans
The one star that I always think this happened to Is Jodie Foster is she came out as a lesbian got married to her wife her career seem to stall overnight

which is crazy for such a great actress
I know she still acts and produces films but nothing like she used to do prior to coming out

I have a list in my head of actors who are gay but have to play the happily married act because they will not get as much mainstream work

Jim Carrey and Jenny McCarthy

Matthew Perry and Julia Roberts what was she thinking!?!

Catherine Zeta Jones and John Leslie - lovely at the time but now just ick ick ick

Geri Halliwell and the fat kid from stand by me.

Mia Farrow and Woody Allen

Also, didn't he date Natalie Imbruglia and that was who 'Torn' was about?
No Torn was a cover.Some Danish singer sang it before Natalie.
