Before They Were Stars: Iconic Celeb Couples Who Dated Pre-Fame
Young Love in the Spotlight
Imagine this: you break up with your high school sweetheart, only to see them starring in the next big Hollywood blockbuster or topping global music charts a year later. For some of today's famous faces, this isn't just a plot twist – it's their real-life story. Celebrities like Sabrina Carpenter and Bradley Steven Perry navigated the tricky waters of young love before their respective stars shot into the stratosphere. Sabrina, before dominating pop music, was a Disney Channel darling on 'Girl Meets World,' where she met fellow star Bradley. A cute love story brewed in adjacent studios with Bradley, who was on 'Mighty Med,' wooing Sabrina with a message in a bottle – courtesy of his mom's adorable idea. Despite their breakup, Bradley fondly remembers Sabrina as "unbelievably talented." He's now married to Natasha Bure, while Sabrina's enjoying the single life post-Barry Keoghan.
Ghosted by Fame
Move over, One Direction drama – there's a new tale in town. Harry Styles and Jade Thirlwall shared a brief romance while on 'The X Factor.' Both just 16, Jade spilled to Louis Theroux that as soon as Harry hit the live shows, he left her messages on read, ghosting her for the bright lights of fame. After Little Mix's win, Harry apologized for the radio silence. As Jade puts it, "He said, ‘I’m really sorry that I ignored you.'" These days, Jade's happily coupled with Jordan Stephens, while Harry is linked with Zoë Kravitz.
Kylie and Cody: Teenage Dream
Before Kylie Jenner became 'King Kylie' of the Kardashian empire, she had her own little romance story with Aussie pop sensation Cody Simpson. The two dated at 14, a sweet nod to the simpler days before Kylie's headline-grabbing relationships. Cody confirmed Kylie as his "first girlfriend" during a 2022 interview, and the former couple seem to have parted ways amicably. Kylie is now linked with Timothée Chalamet, while Cody is dating Olympic swimmer Emma McKeon.
Prom Dates and Heartbreaks
Scarlett Johansson and Jack Antonoff's high school love story is one for the books. Long before Scarlett dazzled us as Black Widow, she was Jack's prom date. Jack's early band, Steel Train, even penned what many believe to be a Scarlett-inspired song. Any heartbreak is ancient history, though – Scarlett is married to Colin Jost, and Jack recently wed Margaret Qualley.
Serious Flings Before Superstardom
Jessica Biel and Chris Evans were an item long before they became household names. Their five-year relationship saw Jessica shine on '7th Heaven' and Chris gearing up for his superhero debut. In 2005, Jessica confessed they both wanted marriage and kids, but the couple eventually split. Jessica's now Mrs. Timberlake, while Chris has a family with Alba Baptista.
Hollywood's Everlasting Friendship
Lisa Kudrow and Conan O’Brien's relationship was the breeding ground for a lasting friendship. Before 'Friends' catapulted Lisa to fame, she and Conan shared a brief romance. Despite the split, the two have remained close, often reminiscing about the good old days on his talk show. Lisa is happily married to Michel Stern, while Conan enjoys life with Liza Powel O’Brien.
Cordial Exes in Tinseltown
Lastly, we have Jennifer Garner and Scott Foley, whose love story began on 'Felicity.' During their four-year marriage, Jennifer starred in 'Alias' and crossed paths with the Hollywood elite. Although they're no longer in touch, Scott recalls cordial run-ins over the years. Jennifer's now dating John Miller, while Scott is happily married to Marika Domińczyk.
