15 Disastrous Behind The Scenes TV Romances.

15. Michael C. Hall and Jennifer Carpenter (Dexter).
This famous television duo played brother and sister on screen and got together off screen. Although, to be fair, even in the show Jennifer Carpenter and Michael C. Hall’s character have an attraction – and despite the fact that they’re adoptive siblings, it’s a pretty uncomfortable storyline.

14. Dominic Monaghan and Evangeline Lilly (Lost).
Lost co-stars Evangeline Lilly and Dominic Monaghan started dating in 2004, right at the beginning of their tenure on the show. They were a hit with the paparazzi, and genuinely seemed like a fun-loving, happy couple. They tried very hard to keep the romance under wraps, with Monaghan stating that the “one thing I can try and keep sacred and special is my love life.”

13. Chad Michael Murray and Sophia Bush (One Tree Hill).
Chad Michael Murray and Sophia Bush’s characters had a brief romance as Lucas Scott and Brooke Davis in One Tree Hill, and the chemistry carried over into the two young actor’s personal lives, as well. Murray and Bush started dating in 2003 after meeting on set for One Tree Hill; they married shortly after in 2005 – both actors were still in their early twenties.

12. Milo Ventimiglia and Hayden Panettiere (Heroes).
The short-lived and momentarily hugely popular superhero drama Heroes ran from 2006 until 2010, with a grand total of four seasons. Both Hayden Panettiere and Milo Ventimiglia were leads on the show, with Panittiere playing a high school cheerleader, and Ventimiglia playing a hospice nurse – which was relatively accurate in its representative of the two actors’ age differences .

11. Jason Segel and Linda Cardellini (Freaks and Geeks).
Freaks and Geeks was a short-lived television series centring on a gang of awkward high-schoolers fumbling through life and love; since its cancelation after one season, it’s gathered a huge cult following.

10. Naya Rivera and Mark Salling (Glee)
The two young actors rose to stardom on the break-out musical drama Glee, where they each played members of the titular Glee club. The two characters shared some on screen flirtation, but nothing major came from their storyline – a different story played out off-screen.

9. Jennifer Love Hewitt and Jamie Kennedy (Ghost Whisperer).
The two stars of Ghost Whisperer dated for a year – from March 2009 to March 2010. Though the two seemed very much in love during their relationship, with Jamie Kennedy publicly announcing their relationship by saying of Jenifer Love-Hewitt, “You are hot. You can sing, you can dance, you’re, like, so smart and, wow, you can cook pasta fagioli, too” – they did not make it in the long run.

6. Shannen Doherty and Jason Priestly (Beverly Hills 90210).
Beverly Hills 90210 was one of the hottest shows of the ’90s, and it propelled most of its young, main cast to teen heartthrob status of the course of the show’s ten seasons. Jason Priestly and Shannen Doherty were at the forefront of this, with their characters, twin siblings Brandon and Brenda Walsh, leading the show as two newcomers to Beverly Hills.

5. Patrick Dempsey and Grey’s Intern (Grey’s Anatomy).
After eleven seasons of the hit medical drama Grey’s Anatomy, Patrick Dempsey’s characterwas killed off before the Season 11 finale. Though Dempsey insists the departure was long overdue and that he should have “moved on a couple years earlier,” the rumour mill has ground out reports that the long-married actor cheated on his wife with an unnamed Grey’s Anatomy intern.

4. Sophia Bush and Jesse Lee Soffer (Chicago P.D.).
If at first you do not succeed, try, try again! Sophia Bush got back at it with Chicago P.D. co-star Jesse Lee Soffer, with whom they were starring together in from the show’s inception in 2014 until Bush was written out in season four.

3. Lena Headey and Jerome Flynn (Game of Thrones).
Although Lena Headey (Cersei) and Jerome Flynn (Bronn) were not an item during the run of Game of Thrones, it has been reported that they dated in the past. The two were first rumoured to be a couple in 2002, although by 2003, Flynn had commented: “We’re not a couple right now, people have seen us together and jumped to conclusions. I can’t rule out a relationship with her in the future, I just don’t know.”

2. Barry Williams and Maureen McCormick (The Brady Bunch).
Even though they portrayed brother and sister on-screen (although to be totally fair, they were only step brother and sister) on The Brady Bunch, that didn’t stop Williams’ and McCormick’s teenage hormones from raging off-screen.

1. Keri Russell and Scott Speedman (Felicity)
Felicity aired from 1998 to 2002, with Keri Russell and Scott Speedman starring the main roles. The two engaged in a romantic relationship off-screen during the latter half of the show, breaking up after three years in 2001, just shy of the show ended its run.
