Mila Kunis and Ashton Kutcher share one of Hollywood’s most unusual romantic histories. They first met as young actors on That ’70s Show, playing Jackie Burkhart and Michael Kelso. Kunis later revealed that her first real kiss happened during a scene with Kutcher. At the time, they were simply colleagues, and their romantic relationship wouldn’t begin until years later. After reconnecting as adults, they discovered that their friendship had developed into something more. In an interview with W, Kunis even described Kutcher as the movie-star crush she was going to marry.
They tied the knot in 2015 and welcomed two children. It’s a rare example of two actors playing a television couple long before becoming husband and wife.
