On the MTV shows Laguna Beach and The Hills, many of us have seen Lauren Conrad try and fail in love. She didn't find her match until she went on a private date and met her husband William Tell. Surprisingly, Conrad met her future mate when she sat on stage at one of his concerts as a teenager. Tell, who had a successful career as a lawyer, was a member of the band Something Corporate while Conrad was the star of the MTV reality show.
Conrad met her husband when she was 16 years old sitting on stage at one of his concerts, and ten years later, they were set on a secret date. The couple married in 2014 and had their first child in 2017.

François-Henri Pinault and Salma Hayek may have met on a private date, but that doesn't necessarily mean that things went well. The actress said this is essentially a disaster in an interview with Latina. In fact, when her friends secretly arranged a date for her, she didn't even know about it. Her friends knew she wasn't going on a date so they tricked her into thinking she was going to an event. They got off to a bad start but everything ended up being pretty good.
The fact that Hayek and the French businessman have been married for more than ten years shows that a fairy tale does not necessarily begin a fairy tale.

Before becoming a TV host, Burton was a popular cast member on The CW's One Tree Hill, while Morgan appeared on Supernatural. The first couple connected through network friends. The blind date between Hilarie Burton and Jeffrey Dean Morgan has all the drunken scenes that could make for a good CW show, just no movie.
The double-blind date was originally planned by Morgan's Supernatural co-star Jensen Acrum, and it ended with late-night tequila drinks with his wife Danneel Acrum. In 2014, Burton and Morgan got married; Now they have a child together.

The marriage of Emily Blunt and her Devil Wears Prada co-star to John Krasinski may have been arranged by Anne Hathaway, which is completely understandable since she has good reason to believe in blind dates.

When it comes to blind dating, Jennifer Aniston might want to give up. The actress, who met Brad Pitt on a blind date and later divorced him, also ended her relationship with a second date. Aniston first met Justin Theroux in 2007 while working on the set of Tropic Thunder. They were officially introduced by Ben Stiller, and it was just lightning love. According to Aniston, he appears to be possibly a serial killer.
The Sparks didn't fly until 2011, when they were at what appeared to be an arranged date, after their friends mysteriously decided to skip dinner. The two married in 2015 and announced their separation shortly after in February 2018.

The Office's Jim Halpert and Pam Beesly may have the most epic love story of the 2000s, but it's nothing compared to John Krasinski's off-screen love affair with Emily Blunt. The pair initially met at a blind date arranged by Anne Hathaway, Blunt's co-star in The Devil Wears Prada. The date was, oddly, at gun range, but it was love at first sight for Krasinski.
