15 Surprising Celebrity Couples You’ll Never Guess Dated In Real Life

15 Surprising Celebrity Couples You’ll Never Guess Dated In Real Life

4. Robert Downey Jr. and Sarah Jessica Parker

Dated: 1984-1991

Even Carrie Bradshaw and Iron Man as a pair would make more sense than Sarah Jessica Parker and Robert Downey Jr. The two dated when they were both young and separated because Downey, who had allegedly been addicted to drugs since the ripe age of 8, couldn’t quit his rock(s) and roll(ing) ways. He says that SJP kept trying to fix him, but he wasn’t having it. Why did she stick around? Maybe she needed those 7 years to get the bad boy cravings out of her system.

5. Courtney Love and Steve Coogan

Dated: 2005

No matter how much or how little you know about Courtney Love, you know for sure that she is loud, raucous, controversial, and into rockers. While Steve Coogan is widely known in the UK for his partying and sexual escapades, he’s somehow still more on the side of nerdy rather than crazy. Maybe that impression is born more out of the awkwardness and insecurities of his fictional alter ego, Alan Partridge, than out of reality, but Courtney Love seems to have been left with the same impression, reportedly telling friends that sleeping with Partridge was “embarrassing.”

There’s little love left between the former couple, whose relationship was in the tabloids when Love accused Coogan of causing Owen Wilson’s suicide attempt and insisted that she was pregnant with his baby, which Coogan denied.

6. Ted Danson and Whoopi Goldberg

Dated: 1993

We can easily see Whoopi Goldberg and Ted Danson sitting at a quiet bar somewhere with a fireplace, swapping anecdotes and laughing heartily. What we can’t imagine is them sticking their tongues down each other’s throats. Seriously, try it.
