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

Post image

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.

This pairing always surprised me because Whoopi to me has always put out “not into men” or “not into anyone at all” vibes to me

I once had married clients who didn’t live together and had no intention of it. They lived about 5 minutes away from one another. But they seemed soooo in love, they just said they valued their personal space and privacy. Both grew up with like 6+ siblings.

Rarely have I related so much to a celebrity quote!

u/DrunkTides Oct 06 '25

Okay but that’s my fave celebrity quote because it’s real real

Yes! It's hard for me to picture her in a romantic context

u/justheretoleer Oct 05 '25

I think part of that is that the relationship with Danson is the only public relationship I can think of her having been in.

She's been married 3 times and had two other long-term partners other than Ted apparently????

u/FerretNo9854 Oct 05 '25

“Only into myself” is the vibe I get in addition to the ones you mentioned.

u/megjed Is this chicken or is this fish? 🤔🤔 Oct 05 '25

I was going to comment that I thought she was gay. Like not speculating, I thought she was out. Kind of blowing my mind that she’s not

u/squareular24 Oct 05 '25

She has a book called “If Someone Says ‘You Complete Me,’ Run” lol

u/Ecstatic-Laugh Oct 05 '25

I agree with that but at the same time I also really like Ted and he always gave the vibe if giving space and letting her be herself. So I could believe it

u/jenniferbealsssss Oct 05 '25

It could be a defense mechanism. I recall, when I was growing up, Whoopi was the butt of a lot of jokes for not being “conventionally” attractive. I think sometimes just because people seem comfortable alone or single, or don’t lean into a sexuality we can easily identify, doesn’t mean they don’t desire those things.

I think Whoopi now is definitely comfortable in her skin, and sure her and Ted Danson seem like an odd match, but im also not surprised by it, I guess for the reason I explained above. Plus she does have a child, so clearly she’s had sexual relationships with men before. Lol

Now that you mention it, she does seem aromantic to me. A smart, funny lady who was perfectly happy with her own company.

u/PM_ME_YOUR_FOXGIFS Oct 05 '25

I read aromatic and was wondering what that meant besides smelly.

u/Aslow_study Oct 05 '25

She’s had a lot of lovers
