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!

Dated a quite famous but obscure musician when I was a teen. Obscure because of the type of music! His family were incredibly lovely and happy.

Here are my guesses although confirmation or denial is not expected!

daffodilbrain Ryan Giggs
ShalomJackie Joleon Lescott
anitagreen Tinky Winky
OccasionallyIncomplet Eminem (and I bet he is fun!)
astarisscorned Lily Allen
squelchyeye Adam Johnson

My mum used to go out with Peter Noone (Herman's Hermitts) and my auntie went out with David Threlfall (Frank Gallagher from Shameless) but my only claim to fame is someone from the animal rights group who sabotaged the Grand National in 1993.

I once had an NYE dalliance with someone who played a superhero. It was lovely. We texted a fair bit after but he went away to film something for quite a while and I met my now DH.

Chickenwings85 · 30/01/2019 02:47

Oh I love these. Shamelessly place marking though.
I may or may not have slept with someone who was in misfits and game of thrones....

CaptainCabinets · 30/01/2019 02:49

@OccasionallyIncomplet

My initial thoughts were Eminem or Usher, but they’ve been kicking about since the 90s so I don’t think it’s either of them.

My final guess is Pitbull, who Wikipedia reliably informs me has been active since...2001. Confirm/deny. Wink

CaptainCabinets · 30/01/2019 02:50

@Chickenwings85 Iwan Rheon for sure!

Please tell me he did the scary stary eyes in bed hahahaha

Chickenwings85 · 30/01/2019 02:54

@captainscabinets Ha! He did have a very intense stare at certain times...

Muffster · 30/01/2019 03:01

My dance teacher was shagging someone from Corrie, meanwhile I had student flings with a) an England cricketer turned tv presenter and b) an actor who did a lot of BBC stuff

Oysterbabe · 30/01/2019 03:04

Not really famous but I dated a runner who was in the London Olympics.

bigandbumpy · 30/01/2019 03:18

@Muffster - The rather delectable Mr Flintoff?

YouGotRedOnYou · 30/01/2019 03:55

Yes. A famous actor who pursued me and though we dated for a while was embarrassed to be seen with fat little me. When I realised I dumped him and he was gutted. This was in the early 00's.
My sister dated a Man U player. She saw pictures of him with a soap actress in the paper and online. He had the nerve to call her and ask why she'd not been in contact. Grin

Seline · 30/01/2019 04:10

He's not famous in this country but I had a relationship with a man who's foreign nobility for a while. He had bodyguards and all that jazz.

Pickled0nion · 30/01/2019 04:56

I had such a crush on Iwan Rheon when he was in Misfits. What was he like as a person?

CharlieBrowns1987 · 30/01/2019 09:04

@chickenwings85 I’m so jealous, I have the hugest crush on him!

astarisscorned · 30/01/2019 09:22

klopptimist no, not Lily Allen - not sure she was even around then?

peachgreen · 30/01/2019 11:11

@Ribbonsonabox haha that's the one! She said he had "very big hands" Grin

pumpastrotter · 30/01/2019 11:26

So jealous of a few of these.

A family member dated a member of Shed Seven.

I pulled an Irish comedian at the fringe before I met DH but no naked times, he pied me off within a few days when he found out I was a mom Blush

Hahaha -no not Joleon Lescott - wrong side of the Stanley Park Wink

Shallishanti123 · 30/01/2019 11:38

Iwan Rheon is lush Smile

eclecticpanda · 30/01/2019 13:02

Not really famous but years ago I dated someone from quite a well known heavy metal band. He totally loved himself and was a complete diva. I ran into him again at a party a few years ago, he virtually held me hostage in the kitchen ranting about how I had done him wrong, then asked me out again. Total tit!

Muffster · 30/01/2019 14:45

@bigandbumpy no not Flintoff
Sadly

pinkfeathersandahulahulaskirt · 30/01/2019 14:50

I don’t understand why you can’t name the person? If they were single and you don’t put anything nasty about them, why don’t you just name them?

Driving me potty 😂

Frosty66611 · 30/01/2019 14:54

I had a bit of a holiday romance with Paul from A1 (terrible cheesy pop group from the 00’s).

Kismetjayn · 30/01/2019 15:00

Ooh @FenellaMaxwell was he recently a superhero, as in 2013?
If so I was propositioned by his friend for a 3some with him! Turned it down though 😂
