Forgotten Celebrity romances?

I was just thinking about this the other day about how I distinctly remember that Kelly MacDonald used to go out with the late Sean Hughes in the mid to late 90's and I remember a story in the press when Kelly broke up with him because of his drinking but their is nothing about that anywhere online now. Also the comedian Ed Byrne dating EastEnders actress Letitia Dean although I think their is still some trace of that online.

Anyone remember these or remember any others?

Alanis morissette and Ryan Reynolds. It came back to me while watching her at Glastonbury!

😯 really ?

Needtosoundoffandbreathe · 30/06/2025 11:05

They were engaged

So google said , tbf I had young children in the early 00s everything flew by me.😀

ARainyNightInSoho · 30/06/2025 14:39

Edward Heath and Moura Lympany? I had never heard of that. It must have been the same kind of thing as Cliff Richard and Sue Barker

Oh yes ! I used to see them out together, running. Then she ran off …with that tall dark bloke whose name I have forgotten, from Men Behaving Badly.

Neil Morrissey.

Lembit Öpik and half of the Cheeky Girls

Ursulla · 30/06/2025 15:13

Shame she didn't get involved in libdem campaigns. "Touch my bum, this is life" is a way better slogan than anything that party has ever come up with. Or any other party, for that matter.

I think Robbie said he had slept with all the spice Girls except one(posh)
I remember ulrica getting together with the guy from the dating show (I watched it, and really liked the girl he did pick, but he obviously ditched her quickly)
Simon cowel had a fling with danni Minogue

Elton and Renata

That has disappeared from the face of the earth

It's probably already been posted on here but incase not Taylor swift and Matty Healy.

Yes - that one really tickled me. I loved the idea of Denise Welch being Taylor Swift’s mother in law 😁

Lins77 · 01/07/2025 05:38

I know it's not the theme of the thread, but Neil Young and Daryl Hannah is always surprising to me.

What was the fascination with Norman Reedus?! He must've had some massive magnetism in RL because he looked so average (or less) to me, yet he attracted these high profile gorgeous women time after time.

If you've seen TWD he is the sexiest man ever. He's ugly hot. Soooooo hot!

Quirkswork · 01/07/2025 06:29

Helena C did pretty well.

Agreed on Norman Reedus 🔥

Sue Barker and Cliff Richard was huge! I remember at the time thinking it was a bit of an odd pairing. I read that she hoped that it would end in marriage, but he changed his mind.

Cliff Richard and Olivia Newton John too!

In the ‘Let’s Stick Together’ video Jerry Hall looks mid 20s. Wow.

He did mention her respectfully in his autobiography.

Henry Beckwith & Geri Halliwell. She had thing for well connected.

Yeah, she's always liked a bit of posh (not the other Spice Girl, who actually isn't really 'posh' in the slightest!)
