Jane Seymour Admits She + Christopher Reeve Fell Madly in Love on the Set of 'Somewhere In Time'

You'll never watch "Somewhere In Time" (1980) the same way again! As far as I know for the first time ever, at the Turner Classic Movies (TCM) Classic Film Festival in April 2022, Jane Seymour admitted that she and Christopher Reeve fell madly in love on the set and that she got her heart terribly broken when he discovered his ex-girlfriend was pregnant. You have to hear this interview between Jane and TCM's Alicia Malone at the TCMFF screening of "Somewhere In Time", especially what she says about Christopher at the end. I was sobbing in the audience. As a Michigan girl, I've always had a soft spot for the movie, filmed at the historic and grandiose Grand Hotel on Mackinac Island in northern Michigan, where I spent many summer holidays and where they still have an annual "Somewhere In Time Weekend." I'd never heard that Jane & Christopher had even been an "item" and didn't know they'd fallen in love during the filming of this beautiful little film. Just makes the film and their personal story of heartbreak all the more bittersweet knowing this.

This interview is a revelation. Jane Seymour has kept this secret for 42 years. It brings an entire new layer of love & heartbreak to an already emotional film. Thank you so very much for sharing this remarkable moment. 💙💙

You could feel and see the chemistry between was more than an act. I'm not surprised.

Who wouldn't fall in love with her...

[nicke.]

Sounds like they got some practice in before they filmed their last scene together! My favorite movie... ever.

Oh what could have been between them....damn, that's tragic. Bittersweet that she went on to marry another and named one of her sons after him.

It was obvious just watching the film that they were in love with each other some say but they were just acting but it was more than that.

That probably happens to a lot of actresses. Its just that Jane Seymour revealed it but other actresses may have chosen to keep it a secret. You have to kiss a hunk and pretend that you don't feel anything.
