These Famous Celebrity Couples Dated & Worked Together: Are They Still Together In 2023?

Celebrity couples can meet anywhere. However, the public is always particularly interested when they fall in love on the set of a project that they are co-starring in.

An A-list singer is the latest celeb to be linked to a co-star, and they’ve reportedly been together for a while now.

While they are one of the newest celebrity couple to date and work together, they are far from the first. Young adult franchises such as High School Musical and Twilight helped bring about some of the most iconic celebrity couples of the mid-to-late aughts in Vanessa Hudgens and Zac Efron and Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart.

Meanwhile, movies like Mr. & Mrs. Smith and superhero blockbusters such as The Amazing Spider-Man also led to offscreen romances for Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt and Andrew Garfield and Emma Stone.

Of course, some of these relationships don’t work out in the long haul. However, others do. Take Jennifer Lopez and Gigli co-star Ben Affleck – who rekindled their love years later and married in 2022 – as an example.

We put together a list of more than 30 celebrity couples that worked together and recapped if their love is still burning strong today.
