35 Photos Of Celeb Couples Whose Relationships Slipped Fans' Knowledge

by Maryjane

For every famous celebrity couple that has occupied our news feeds or trended on social media — from Rihanna and Chris Brown to Nicki Minaj and Meek Mill or Kylie Jenner and Travis Scott — there have been just as many notable celeb couples who have slipped under the radar, with their fans unaware of their relationships. Did you know, for example, that popstar Pink made it known in 2013 that she once dated N'SYNC member Joey Fatone?

Or that Seal and Tyra Banks were in a relationship? What about the shocker that Justin Timberlake dated Alyssa Milano and Fergie Duhamel at different times?

Meanwhile, his wife, Jessica Biel, had a brief affair with Captain America (Chris Evans). Are you even aware that Kate Hudson and A-Rod were actually a thing?

Another shocker! Did you know that Sandra Bullock and Ryan Gosling met while filming Murder By Numbers in 2002 and didn't talk about or make their relationship public at the time?

But it was true! This got us thinking about all the other celebrities who have dated over the years—those who have either kept their love life on the low or kept it completely hidden from the public.

Prepare to be shocked as we take you through 35 photos of celebrity couples fans had no idea they ever dated.
