10+ Celebrity Couples Who Were In "A Complicated Relationship" With Each Other

Elise Feyrer

Although some celebrity relationships last, some don't. We like famous pairings, nevertheless, of which we were unaware. Ryan Gosling and Eva Mendes have two kids, so we must continually remind ourselves that they are more than just a thing. The Hollywood couple with the most important privacy is them. Therefore, you're not the only one who gasps in surprise at any of these unlikely couplings.
These celebrities appear to like trying, even if most Hollywood love stories don't end "happily ever after"! You won't believe some of the strange relationships and heartthrob mismatches on our list of celebrity couples.

1. Zendaya and Tom Holland

We just never had the receipts, even though there have been rumors about these two being together for years—since 2017, to be exact. That is until an expert photographer captured a picture of the pair having a passionate kiss in a vehicle last summer.
It remains to be seen if they'll make an official red carpet debut as a couple now that the truth is out there. Or whether their "outing" in the tabloid will merely cause them to slink away from the limelight.

2. Robert Pattinson and Suki Waterhouse

RPatz has kept things secret in his long-term relationship with British model-actress Suki Waterhouse, no doubt wounded by the intense public scrutiny he endured when dating his Twilight co-star Kristen Stewart. The pair, dating since July 2018, was said to have weathered the epidemic in London together in comparative peace with only sporadic media sightings while out shopping.
Even if nothing else, it subtly reminded others that they were a couple. There is no information about Suki's opinion of the claims that her spouse is one of the worst kissers in Hollywood.

3. Margot Robbie and Tom Ackerley

We're here to crush any fantasies you may have had in previous years that you could one day get the chance to shoot your shot with Margot Robbie (sorry). The very secretive Australian actress, who just announced her social media retirement, has been wed to British director Tom Ackerley since 2016. (they first started dating in 2014).
They are rarely seen together (Robbie frequently goes to professional functions alone), and she hasn't said much about their relationship.

4. Alison Brie and Dave Franco

Sometimes when they appear together on the red carpet, we all slap our foreheads and exclaim. They do exist. It's simple to overlook that Brie and Franco have been dating since 2011 because they are one of Hollywood's least well-known couples. In 2017, the two exchanged vows, and they continue to sometimes appear in one other's film ventures. We maintain a solid, personal relationship.

5. Cameron Diaz and Benji Madden

Cameron Diaz famously dated Justin Timberlake, but it seems the actress preferred a more low-key relationship after meeting the guitarist for Good Charlotte. Before being married the following year, the two were first connected in 2014. Radix, their daughter, was quietly welcomed in late 2019. secret nuptials? Secret child? Regarding these two, we have nothing but respect.

6. A$AP Rocky and Rihanna

After A$AP Rocky served as Rihanna's opening act on her Diamonds World Tour in 2013, the power duo was initially mentioned. However, it is difficult to pinpoint their exact dating history due to their secret nature.
The couple has been pictured together, but there isn't much concrete proof. Everything wasn't revealed until Rocky raved over RiRi in a GQ interview in May 2021. There is no doubting that these two are gorgeous couples as he refers to her as "the love of his life."

7. Carey Mulligan and Marcus Mumford

Like Alison Brie and Dave Franco, it's simple to overlook the relationship between Carey Mulligan and the Mumford and Sons guitarist until they appear on the red carpet together and hold hands. The couple started dating in 2011, exchanged vows in 2012, and then had two children, Evelyn and Wilfred.

8. Taylor Swift and Joe Alwyn

Although Taylor Swift has received a lot of (unjustified) criticism for penning songs about ex-boyfriends, many of whom were well-known in Hollywood, the folk singer has reportedly been secretly linked to English actor Joe Alwyn since 2016. The two are rarely seen together in photos taken at events, but the paparazzi have captured them over time.

9. Joshua Jackson and Jodie Turner-Smith

You'd be excused for thinking that Joshua Jackson, a Canadian, was still associated with his longtime flame Diane Kruger. But you'd be wrong. It turns out that Jackson and British model-actress Jodie Turner-Smith have been together at least since 2019. (some reports have them linked since 2018).
He and Turner-Smith will have a daughter named Janie in 2020. Did you know that Norman Reedus of The Walking Dead is dating Jackson's ex-girlfriend Kruger, thus causing your heads to spin? Additionally, they have a daughter together.

10. Kate Mara and Jamie Bell

You weren't the only person, like Joshua Jackson, to believe that Jamie Bell and Evan Rachel Wood were still together. However—spoiler alert—they split up in 2014 and still split up custody of their son. Bell and Kate Mara have been coworkers since 2015 when they first met on the Fantastic Four set.
They got hitched two years later. They had a daughter in 2019 but haven't revealed any information about her, not even her name.

11. Kirsten Dunst and Jesse Plemons

The former child actor and the Friday Night Lights veteran met while Fargo, an anthology series on FX, was filming its second season. The couple has kept their relationship secret despite being seen together at professional gatherings.
What little information we have reveals that they have been dating since 2015, were engaged for four years, and secretly welcomed two children whose sex or names we do not know. These two are among the top Hollywood couples regarding extreme privacy.

12. Rosario Dawson and Cory Booker

Since 2019, there have been rumors that the US Senator, who is also RuPaul's cousin, is dating the Sin City star. The couple secretly moved in together in 2021; this was a secret until Booker casually revealed it in an interview. Other than that, nothing is known about the inner workings of this well-known (and yet not-so-well-known) couple. And it appears that they prefer things precisely the way it is.
