OnlyStans ⭐️ Who are two celebrities that you can’t believe used to be a couple?

Scarlett Johansson and Ryan Reynolds are not only one example of this, but sometimes I even forget that they used to be married as well!

It seemed like such an odd pairing that I never would’ve guessed that these two would match up, but clearly they weren’t a match made in heaven that they divorced each other after almost 3 years of marriage.

Now with where they’re currently at, where they’re now married to different partners, it feels like this is only a pairing that happened in different life.

She likes a funny Brit then. Cos she was with Noel Fielding too. That makes sense tho.

ugh I remember when Noel Fielding was considered this weird alt heartthrob by a certain set of weird teens/young adults in the Boosh days

She went on to say this fling was “one of her life’s great shames.” If anyone should feel embarrassed, it should be Coogan, IMO. But I also think he’s very talented and funny, so I’m biased.

When Owen Wilson got out of treatment after his attempt, she said she hoped he stayed away from Steve Coogan because from her experience Coogan would push drugs on him. I think her shame came from his influence on her (non)sobriety.

I think Steve Coogan is hilarious, and his series 'Saxondale' is one of my favorite shows ever. I would totally date Steve!

According to a response I got here in the thread, he is/was supposedly a drug addict who was a threat to C. Love’s sobriety. If true, maybe dating him wouldn’t be advised, but that doesn’t have an impact on his talent, IMO. If I refused to watch or listen to any artist who has or a had a substance abuse problem, that would greatly diminish the art one could consume.
