The truth is that not every Hollywood romance starts out as love at first sight nor is it always a meet-cute. There are times when relationships begin behind the scenes both literally and figuratively. We all know that divorce is nothing new in this industry, but affairs are actually very common too. It can get messy when you get involved with a person who is in a relationship or even marriage with someone else. This is even worse when you yourself have a partner! However, there are certain sparks that simply won’t die out. You probably had no idea that the following pairs got their start this way.

LeAnn Rimes And Eddie Cibrian

In 2008, LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian got to work together on a Lifetime Channel movie called Northern Lights. They could not deny that they had good chemistry from the get-go. This would have been fine if they were not already married to other people. It took two divorces before they could finally make it public. Rimes told People, “I take responsibility for everything I’ve done. I hate that people got hurt… But I don’t regret the outcome.”

Swizz Beatz And Alicia Keys

Songstress Alicia Keys and music producer Swizz Beatz actually knew each other when they were kids. Back then, she explained, “I didn’t really like him that much. I thought he was too ostentatious. Everything with him is really over the top. I used to see him and think, ‘He is so annoying.’” A while later, he got married before they started working together. Their professional relationship turned romantic, which is why he got a divorce from his wife to tie the knot with Keys.
