I’m poorly in bed and have too much time to kill, plus I am very nosey.
I have never even met anyone remotely famous!

Yes. Famous-ish.
I went out with a successful DJ for about 9 months. It was fun because he was a really nice guy. But he was abroad DJing a lot and I wouldn't be surprised if he'd strayed. Great memories (about 10 years ago. He's still successful but now married, as am I, not to each other).

I've had some extremely disturbing dreams about Tom Hardy.

Does that count Blush

@tor181 I worked with a girl who had a holiday romance with H in Tenby. Did you ever work for a newspaper?

Downeyhouse · 29/01/2019 21:11

In the late 80s as a teen went out with the son of a mega famous 70’s and 80´s household celebrity name. Not Michael Aspel but similar level of fame.

isseywithcats · 29/01/2019 21:12

Yes. Household name.

No, I won't say who or give clues, as am still friends with this person and value the friendship.

GreyGardens88 · 29/01/2019 21:32

I'm sure you're not the only person he's dated BMW6

peachgreen · 29/01/2019 21:43

No but I once snogged a guy who is now sort of famous for being in a recent Christmas movie. And a friend of mine made out with Tom Hiddleston as a teenager! I also had an ill-advised one night stand with a guy and the next morning noticed he had a picture of a fairly well-known British TV presenter on his bedside table. I was like "it's really weird that you have a framed photo of X in your bedroom" and he was like "oh, she's my wife, didn't you know?" I think he assumed I had recognised him (which is hilarious because he's not famous at all). He assured me they had an open marriage and tried to get me to meet him again several times afterwards! I still feel guilty every time I see her on telly.

willagedisgracefully · 29/01/2019 21:44

Isseywithcats. My sisters friend also went out with him, I was so jealous! Are you H by any chance ?

2isur2isubicurtis4me · 30/01/2019 00:43

Yes and then years later the British scum press could not get to grips with the fact his sister still
Appeared in celeb big brother when he died so she missed his funeral but missing the fact they were Jewish so the she missed it anyway. He as a lovely man who loved his family

Ribbonsonabox · 30/01/2019 00:51

Ribbonsonabox · 30/01/2019 00:53

Walnutwhipster · 30/01/2019 01:04

I introduced a now household name to my best friend on a night out. I was at college with him for three years. Their fairly brief relationship ended when she found out he was shagging her sister behind her back!

HelenaDove · 30/01/2019 01:12

"My mum went out with Harry H Corbett (Harold Steptoe)"

Didnt expect to see this one.

Justawaterformeplease · 30/01/2019 01:15

My housemate at uni dated a guy from emmerdale for a while and while at a party with her I very nearly snogged Bombhead from Hollyoaks. What could have been...

getawayslough · 30/01/2019 01:39

Guy in my hometown used to date the actress who played violet in corrie years ago, this was before she was famous.

I slept with a tv star, not a household name really but was in holby city and saw them on a few other uk shows and in magazines. Met on night out. Slept with another pretty big netflix star from US from a pretty big netflix show. Both 1 night stands, won't give names as i respect privacy of these 2 though. I also slept with the sibling of a pretty big movie star who is particularly well known. Again a 1 night stand.
