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??”

Oh my god. I had been looking at photos of her yesterday due to another thread on here and saw this guy in many of them... it didn’t cross my mind for even a second that they were involved romantically! She just looked like she was being chaperoned everywhere.
I think that's the best description 😂

Richard Armitage and Victor Garber - quick google tells me Victor is in fact married to Rainer Andriessen (same initials. Weird) .
wegobshite Rupert Everett has said his acting career was badly hurt when he came out as gay.

@3CCC

Aston Kutcher and Milia Kunis- it wasn't till after that I learnt they were once in a show together

Callista Lockheart & Harrison Ford

Aww see i think Aston Kutcher and Mila are well suited. Both gorgeous, similar age and seen genuinely nice.

I was very shocked she was with McAuley Culkin and he was with Demi Moore

Jerry Hall and Rupert Murdoch

I thought Hiddleswift was very much for the cameras/press only.

Richard & Judy.

She is eight years older than him, but she looks like his mum, not his wife. And always has.

This thread is marvellous! I don't know who most of these people are but I'm at some of them!

Not a couple, but I was bewildered to learn that Charlie Brooker is good friends with Aisleyne from big brother. Apparently they went camping together

Catherine Zeta Jones and Michaerl Douglas - but mainly due to age gap. He did look great whe younger but aged badly while she has been aging wel - he just looks like her senior relative.

Nigella and Saatchi - just why (but same re Trinny!)

agree re Richard and Judy, must ge a GREAT personaity match.

I agree with Richard and Judy, she's always looked much older than him. I love a celebrity couple where the imbalance in looks is weighted that way though, very refreshing. Hugh Jackman has a place in my heart for the same reason.

Sue Barker and Cliff Richard.

honestly no one has said Sonny & Cher?

Prince William and Rose Hanbury. Never thought he had it in him

Posh and becks, they just don't seem to have any chemistry, I wouldn't be surprised if its a marriage of convenience.

Jeremy Vine and Rachel Schofield, the woman deserves a medal.

Anna Paquin and Stephen Moyer surprised me at the beginning but they have been married for years.

hayden panettiere and vladimir klicko

Were they a 'celebrity couple'?

@TotallyObsessed4

meghan trainor and daryl sabara (the boy from the spy kids films)

How dare you … he's the "adopted kid" from friends and always will be

Remember when Amanda Holden cheated on Les Dennis with Neil Morrissey? That was a depressing trio.

Also, did I imagine this or was there a time when Edie Falco (Nurse Jackie, Carmella from Sopranos) dated Nasty Nick from Big Brother? So weird.

Prince and Kim Basinger.

Madonna and Warren Beatty.

Mariah Carey and Eminem.

Not a long term relationship, but a fling apparently. I was mind blown 🤯 when I heard.

Didn’t Rebecca Adlington have a thing with Dean Cain who used to play Superman? Not sure it was ever confirmed, but that was an unexpected coupling.

@Sparklingbrook

Were they a 'celebrity couple'?

He is one of the most famous people in the world and they are a couple (even though he is married)

Jane from pride and prejudice and Ser Jorah from Game of Thrones

IE Susannah harker and Iain Glen.

Is that even true though?

Keanu Reeves and Diane Keaton

Glad to see a reversal of the usual Hollywood trend.

I think in order to be a 'celebrity couple' both people in the couple would need to be famous, or it's just a famous person/celebrity and someone nobody's ever heard of.

Frank Bruno and Darcey Bussell always surprises me
