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??”

@HalfCakeHalfBiscuit

Frank Bruno and Darcey Bussell always surprises me

This must be a joke

@felulageller

Keanu Reeves and Diane Keaton

Glad to see a reversal of the usual Hollywood trend.

You’ll appreciate a then 20-something Colin Farrell cracking onto Dame Eileen Atkins then...

Rita Ora and Rob Kardashian

@SwimmingOnEggshells

Mariah Carey and Eminem.

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

Then he made some upset rap songs because she wouldn't admit it 😂

Someone earlier mentioned Jessica Simpson and Billy Corgan. I had no idea they were ever a thing imagine the duet
"I wanna love you foreveeerrr, 10 thousand lifetimes togetherrrrr"
"It's you that I adore, you'll always be my wh**e"

Josh Holloway and wife.

Charles and Diana. There isn’t a single photo of the that doesn’t look incredibly awkward..

Emmanuel and Brigitte Macron

@Peach01 oh my god Billy Corgan and Jessica Simpson?! 😂

The one I always think of as dodgy is Celine Dion.
She met him as a child and had no other relationship other than him.

Avril Lavigne and Chad Kroeger (of Nickleback fame)

Lisa Presley and Michael Jackson

Yes, Celine Dion's relationship comes across as odd to me too.

You can definitely tell from this thread who reads trashy gossip columns and thinks it's all true!

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

I'd think that's more because of her age. There aren't many roles for older actresses, sadly.

@Peach01 I know so funny 😂 there's a 'diss' called The Warning that Eminem wrote about Mariah on YouTube - it's insanely angry. I think he wrote it after her song Obsessed which was so clearly about Eminem ... the video! 😂

@msbevvy

Disgraced doctor Andrew Wakefield and Elle MacPherson!

You win @msbevvy

and they are a couple (even though he is married)

HalfCake I don't believe the gossip - it's mot the times if Charles and Di when people could sweep things under the carpet - he just couldn't 'be a couple' now without it blowing up, or even risk it blowing up at any moment.
There is no proof whatsoever, it may have been a fling but still a couple, i.e. repeateing what his father did with three in a marriage - don' think so.

Not together anymore, Norman Reedus and Helena Christienson

@FunTimes2020

Charles Saatchi and Trinny Woodall

so agree.

@Letsgetreadytocrumble

Definitely Lembit Opik and that one Tom the Cheeky Girls.

Preston and Chantelle.

I thought Chantelle and Rav Wilding were an unlikely couple.

Cameron Diaz & Benji Madden

Mary-Kate Olsen and Olivier Sarkozy

Crikey, this thread has made me so many times!

The one that always gets me is Saturday morning comfort TV host James Martin and Barbara Broccoli from the James Bond franchise. I mean, how even?

Chantelle and Alex Reid!

Denise van outen and Gary glitter

Rupert Everitt and Paula Yates
For about six years 😱
