9 celebrities who took a while to be joined by Cupid

The idea that one person can fall in love with another at first sight is very much like Hollywood. Yes, of course, throughout human history, we can find cases of this nature, but, on several occasions, it takes a little more time to let yourself be shot by Cupid. For some couples, a simple look wasn’t enough for those involved to say, “hey, I think I like that person.” Sometimes it only takes a little time to ignite the flame of passion.

O awesome.club list below cases of celebrities whose love did not come at first sight. Read to the end and be sure to check out the bonus showing a connection that seemed predestined.

Mila and Ashton met backstage on That 70’s Show when she was 14. He was 19. Mila, incidentally, lied about her age to be able to take the tests. So when she had to kiss Ashton in one scene, that kiss was actually Mila’s first in real life too. Even though they spent most of the series as a couple, behind the camera the two were just good friends.

Some time later, they met again at a red carpet event. That’s when love hooked them both, and since then they haven’t let go. Seventeen years after they met, the actors got married. Today, they have two children and form one of the most solid couples in Hollywood.

Chrissy Teigan and John Legend met during the recording of a music video for the musician. After they played together, they went out for hamburgers together and got along really well. John, however, was going on an international tour, so they said goodbye and exchanged messages from time to time.

Although Chrissy was really into something more with Legend, he continued to act normally without showing much interest. The star even revealed: “I didn’t think ‘this is the woman I’m going to marry’ from day one. I’m the type of person who needs to grow things towards that feeling. A few years later, that’s when I could imagine us together forever.” And, to date, we can say that the relationship between both has only strengthened, considering that they now form a fun family of four members.

When Ben starred in The OC, Morena even acted in a few episodes. She said that, although the two did not appear together in any scene, they ended up meeting at a party, but Ben did not seem interested. Today, Morena and Ben are the parents of three children, having been married for five years. The couple participated in the Gotham series and have not separated since then.

Here we have one of Hollywood’s most stable couples. The two met and became friends when they acted in the movie I Know What You Did Last Summer, in 1997, but they would only start dating in 2000.

It all happened thanks to a mutual friend with whom the actors had dinner plans, the three of them together. However, the friend did not attend because she missed the flight. Sarah and Freddie decided to have dinner with each other, and the rest is history. They have been together for 20 years, 17 of which they have been married, and have two children.

Sarah and Holland met years before they started dating. By the way, Sarah was engaged when they first saw each other. However, some time later, the two got in touch through direct messages on Twitter and, from there, without caring about the age difference, they started a relationship. They are often seen together at award shows and, although they each have their own house, they live in the same house most of the time.

The couple formed by Adam and Leighton represent the mix between two great series for teens that many members of the millennial generation grew up with: The OC and Gossip Girl: The Girl from the Blog. The two were informally introduced when Adam was eating at a famous restaurant and the cast of Gossip Girl were at the same establishment. Subsequently, they met at another location, but nothing happened. It was only when both acted in A Filha do Meu Melhor Amigo that they became friends. But nothing else happened, as the actor was staying with someone else.

Only about a year after that movie they started dating steadily, and the guy started to see in his partner not only a beautiful woman, but also cool and with a good heart. They were married in 2014 and now have two children.

They’re one of Hollywood’s most enduring couples, and while they’re not officially married, that’s not to say they’re not committed to each other. The relationship between them has lasted more than 30 years, and the famous love life together. They met in 1968. At the time, Goldie thought Kurt was handsome and a great person, but the courtship didn’t start right away. That’s because Kurt was 16, while she was 21. When Goldie met him again, many years later, she remembered how attractive she had found him. In 1983, the two began dating during the filming of Armas e Amores.

Both had children from previous relationships, but they knew how to adapt very well as a family. Kate Hudson, Goldie’s daughter, always congratulates him and sends him nice words of affection on Father’s Day. Definitely, this famous couple managed to make love the key to staying together and forming a united family.

Justin and Jessica met at a party in 2007. He asked a friend if he could get the beauty’s phone number and called her, but Jessica wasn’t quite convinced that she should go out with the singer. Justin insisted and was persistent until she agreed, and the two went on a date. Many dates later, the wedding took place. The ceremony took place in 2012, and in 2021 the couple’s second child was born.

This couple is a social media favorite for being fun and making a lot of mutual banter. However, the love between them was not instantaneous, but it took some time to grow. The two met while filming Green Lantern. That’s when they became friends, but that’s all, because both were committed to other people.

The friendship continued and, a year after the film, when the two were single, they decided to go on a double date, but with other dates. Blake was with another man, while Ryan was with another woman. The actor stated: “It was a very uncomfortable encounter for both of our companions, as you could see the presence of fireworks between Blake and me.”

The Mumford & Sons singer and Oscar-nominated actress Carey Mulligan met on a camping trip when she was 12. The friendship continued, and the two exchanged letters in childhood. Years later, in 2011, Marcus invited Carey to a private show with his band. As he played, he looked at her, and the actress blushed. The flame was born there.

Well, in certain cases, there is no room for doubt. Carey definitely did not hesitate when, after a month staying with her beloved, she decided to move to another country. He was not far behind: four months later, he asked for his current wife’s hand in marriage. The union was sealed in 2012, and they have been together ever since. The two started a family and have supported each other in their careers, always hand in hand.
