How LeAnn Rimes and Eddie Cibrian Settled Into a “Calm Life” Together

by

LeAnn Rimes knows how she lives with Eddie Cibrian.

After 15 years of marriage, the singer of “I Need You” shared that things are simply easier in her relationship with her husband, who starred in Third Watch.

Oh my gosh, you guys, LeAnn just told TopMob News everything! She was talking about how much she and her husband have been through, and it’s so sweet! She said her step-sons, Mason and Jake – can you believe they’re 22 and 18 already?! – are all grown up now. She says helping to raise them has given them such a peaceful, happy life, which is just goals. She admitted it wasn’t always easy, but they’ve really become this amazing family and honestly, she just sounds so in love! I’m seriously obsessed with them!

The 43-year-old also mentioned that she and Eddie have grown a lot as a couple since they first met on the set of the 2009 movie Northern Lights – a time when they were both married to other people and faced public attention.

Oh my gosh, he just gets me, you know? We have this incredible connection, and he’s always there for me, cheering me on. Honestly, he and I are each other’s absolute priority – we make sure of it, no matter what. It’s just… everything with him always comes first.

We really enjoy spending time together and always have a good laugh. He’s a genuinely kind person, and it’s amazing to think we’ve already been together for 15 years. So far, things are going great.”

LeAnn wrote her song “Wild Things Run,” which first appeared on the February 26th episode of her show 9-1-1 Nashville, after feeling a strong emotional bond with Eddie.

That scene really showed the connection between my character, Dixie, and Don, played by Chris O’Donnell, but I also think it reflects the dynamic between their characters too. There’s always been a spark between them, and that underlying tension was a lot of fun to explore in the writing.

LeAnn explained that while the project reflected aspects of her own experiences, she was focused on portraying the emotional core of the relationship she was depicting. She added that her relationship with Eddie had similar elements, so it drew from personal inspiration as well.

9-1-1 Nashville airs Thursdays at 9 p.m. on ABC.

LeAnn and Eddie aren’t the only famous couples who met on the job. Here’s a look at other stars who found romance while working together.

The one where fans had no idea their favorite Friends couple actually had feelings for each other.

In the recent HBO Max reunion of the popular TV show Friends, Jennifer Aniston and David Schwimmer revealed they both had crushes on each other while filming the first season.

As Schwimmer shared, he had a big crush on Jennifer Aniston during the first season of the show. Aniston playfully responded that the feeling was mutual.

So why didn’t Ross and Rachel’s real-life counterparts ever officially get together?

Schwimmer said that he and Jennifer Aniston had a mutual crush on each other, but the timing never worked out. One of them was always dating someone else, and they both honored those relationships. He added that they both—

Matt LeBlanc playfully disagreed, saying, “That’s not true, I’m just kidding,” and then hinted that his co-stars might have displayed some affection on set.

I actually told David once, ‘It would be terrible if our first kiss happened on national TV,’ confessed Aniston. And, as it turned out, our first kiss did happen – in that coffee shop we were at.

During the first couple of seasons, Jennifer Aniston and David Schwimmer enjoyed spending time together on set. Schwimmer recalled moments where they would cuddle on the couch during breaks, and Aniston added that they sometimes even fell asleep spooning.

You know, it finally hit me – I was wondering the whole time how we managed to keep our crushes from being obvious to everyone around us! It’s funny looking back and realizing how blind we all were, including ourselves!

In 2010, stars of The Big Bang Theory surprised fans by revealing they had been dating for two years. Kaley Cuoco only shared details of their relationship after they broke up.

Kaley Cuoco shared in an interview with CBS Watch! magazine that her relationship with Johnny Galecki was a significant part of her life, yet completely private. She described it as a great connection, but one they kept secret, never discussing it publicly or appearing together in public.

Even after Johnny Galecki and Kaley Cuoco ended their real-life relationship, their characters, Penny and Leonard, stayed together on The Big Bang Theory until the show finished. The actors found it easy to portray a couple, despite their breakup.

She explained that, given these two professionals started working at a very young age and always valued their privacy, they wanted to handle things quietly. She also suggested their desire for privacy might have unintentionally contributed to the end of their relationship.

Kaley Cuoco explained they were very careful with the show and with their own feelings, wanting to avoid anything that could spoil it. However, she added that this cautious approach also made things difficult. ‘I don’t want to feel like I have to hide things,’ she said, explaining she prefers a more open and honest connection.

What you saw on Saved By the Bell with the characters’ relationships didn’t even scratch the surface of the real drama happening among the cast members behind the scenes.

Looking back, everyone on the show dated each other at some point—it was a very close-knit group! Gosselaar described it as a bit like high school, with the girls sometimes ganging up on the guys. He recalled Tiffani and Elizabeth both being upset with him, then turning on Lark for even speaking to him, and Mario feeling pressured to take sides. It was all just typical high school drama – ‘Why are you talking to him?’

The longest-lasting romantic relationship among the cast of Saved by the Bell was between Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Tiffani Thiessen, who dated for three years towards the end of the show’s run.

According to Ed Alonzo, who played Max on the show, actors Mark-Paul Gosselaar and Tiffani Thiessen, known as Zack and Kelly to fans, had a noticeable connection while filming their scenes together. He shared this information with Entertainment Tonight.

“It was very cute,” Alonzo shared. “It was hand-holding and looking over.”

Thiessen recently told People magazine about her first experience with alcohol, which happened while in Paris with Mark-Paul Gosselaar during a press tour. She fondly remembers sharing crepes and that first sip with him, describing the experience as feeling like a real-life Barbie and Ken – or maybe even Zack and Kelly!

Zack Morris, the character from Saved By the Bell, revealed in a 2019 interview on Anna Faris’s Unqualified podcast that he had dated all three of the show’s main female characters, including a brief romance with Tiffani Thiessen’s character, Kelly Kapowski.

He described the atmosphere on set, saying, ‘It’s a unique environment, especially when you’re young. You’re essentially working and living in a bubble, cut off from the outside world.’

No wonder Zack had to call so many time outs.

Though fans rooted for A.C. Slater and Jessie Spano on Saved By the Bell, Mario Lopez recently shared in his memoir, Just Between Us, that he actually dated Elizabeth Berkley (who played Jessie) in real life.

He described how they started dating – going to the movies, eating out, and socializing at parties where they danced. Eventually, they became a couple. However, Lopez later confessed to being unfaithful, explaining that while he believed staying loyal to Tiffani was the right thing to do, he wasn’t mature enough at the time to actually do it.

How real was the romance between the stars of Beverly Hills, 90210? It really depends on who you believe.

Back when I worked with Brian Austin Green – or, as we played on screen, David and Donna – we definitely had a connection both on and off camera. But Brian and I remember things differently. I think it’s because we were both so young at the time, and we each had our own perspective on what happened.

She laughed, saying it was strange because she clearly remembered a summer they spent together where they both said ‘I love you.’ He, however, had a completely different recollection, claiming they just hooked up and were friends. She found his version of events unbelievable, and just responded with, ‘Okay, cool,’ and still feels that way now.

On a 2015 episode of Celebrity Lie Detector, Tori Spelling confessed she had always been in love with Brian Austin Green. She also revealed she once kissed Luke Perry and had a brief summer romance with Jason Priestley. Priestley responded to the news with a tweet saying he wouldn’t discuss it, adding that it was a private matter.

Before marrying Blake Lively, Ryan Reynolds, known for his role in Deadpool, shared a kiss with ’90s television star Melissa Joan Hart after they appeared together in the 1996 TV movie Sabrina the Teenage Witch.

In her 2013 memoir, actress Melissa Joan Hart shared a story about how her co-star, Ryan Reynolds, gave her a watch on the last day of filming when he played Sabrina’s crush. After that, they ended up kissing back at her hotel room.

Oh my god, his lips… they were just incredible. And he was so big, you know? Like, these huge hands and broad shoulders that just… enveloped me. I felt so tiny! Honestly, it was a little overwhelming, but in the best way. It almost made me forget about the insane amount of hair product he was wearing – almost!

Kelly Clarkson revealed that she and Justin Guarini, both finalists on the original American Idol, did date, but their relationship began after the show had ended.

Everyone assumed we were dating while on American Idol, but we weren’t actually together then,” she said on Watch What Happens Live in 2015. She did mention they briefly dated while making their 2003 movie, From Justin to Kelly, even though the film wasn’t successful.

She explained that when people spend a lot of time together, it’s natural for them to develop feelings for each other. She jokingly referenced a song from the movie From Justin to Kelly, saying, ‘You can’t deny the connection!’

While filming Hannah Montana: The Movie in 2009, Cyrus quietly dated her on-screen love interest.

During interviews to promote their Disney movie, Till revealed they had been dating for two months, sharing with an Atlanta radio station, ‘I think it will make the movie a little better because it was definitely real.’

After Vanessa Hudgens and Zac Efron broke up in 2010, she briefly dated her Journey 2: The Mysterious Island co-star. However, the news about their relationship didn’t become public until after they had already split up, and while they were promoting the film together.

In 2012, while appearing on an Australian morning show together, the former couple was asked how long they had been dating.

A long, uncomfortable silence hung in the air, followed by puzzled glances. Hutcherson finally spoke, but it only made the situation more awkward.

He quickly corrected himself, saying they used to be together, but she ended things. Then, realizing how personal he was getting, he laughed it off and joked, earning a nervous chuckle from Vanessa Hudgens.
