Pardon, what?!

Rak-Su's Myles was allegedly hooking up with Love Island's Malin during The X Factor live shows, after messaging on social media. “They met up in secret and enjoyed a few nights together at her home in Milton Keynes before going their separate ways," a source told The Sun. “It was a cheeky move by Myles given that X Factor’s bosses ask contestants to concentrate on the show while they are still involved.”
Rex FeaturesJames Arthur & Rita Ora
James Arthur recently spoke out about a "secret fling" he had with Rita Ora years ego, saying that their split turned him into a sex addict. Yep, really. Rita supposedly left him "heartbroken" when she went cold on him shortly after admitting she was "in love" with him. "I started bingeing on sex. I became as addicted to sex as I was to weed," he said. "I craved sex, I had to have it and I needed it to fill the void and make myself feel better."
Rex FeaturesLena Headey & Jerome Flynn
Game of Thrones fans brace yourselves! Did you know that this duo actually dated? Lena and Jerome were first linked in 2002 and broke up after almost an year together. The bitter split apparently made life on set a little awkward - with one crew member saying that Lena and Jerome are "no longer on speaking terms". So before you fall for any conspiracy theories on why Bronn and Cersei are never shown interacting, know that this might be just it.
Getty imagesJustin Timberlake & Jenna Dewan-Tatum
In a recent appearance on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen, Jenna Dewan-Tatum revealed that she used to date Justin Timberlake. The actress, who was one of Justin's back-up dancers at the time, confirmed that after his big public split from Britney Spears, they had a short-lived relationship: “We dated. Not that long. We were like friends, then dated and we’re just really good friends now”. Jenna went on to marry her Step-Up co-star Channing Tatum and Justin tied the knot with Jessica Biel. We wonder if they go on double dates.
Getty ImagesJon Bon Jovi & Diane Lane
Diane Lane dished about what dating Jon Bon Jovi was like in the 80s, saying: "I think every girl should have such a wonderful experience when she's that young."
The pair dated for five months, and she said "I have some photos of him packing for the tour. Just all the jockstraps were lined up on the floor for the whole band to get through the whole tour." Jockstraps, you say? "You have to under those leather pants, sweating!" she explained further.
Getty ImagesSandra Bullock and Ryan Gosling
Ryan Gosling is perhaps best known for his relationship with Eva Mendes, but longer before Eva there was Sandra – a full 16 years older than him. The pair dated for a year before splitting in 2002. And Ryan has only fond memories of their time together, in an interview after their breakup he spoke about Sandra and his other ex, Rachel McAdams: "I had two of the greatest girlfriends of all time. I haven't met anybody who could top them" - cue Eva Mendes stealing his heart for good.
Getty ImagesMadonna & Michael Jackson
What the!?! Madonna has revealed that she used to smooch Michael Jackson back in the day. During herCarpool Karaoke with James Corden the Queen of Pop revealed that they used to kiss, and she was the one who obviously made the first move, "because he was a little shy".
"But he was a willing accomplice," she added. "I did get him to sort of loosen up with a glass of chardonnay. And it worked wonders."
Getty ImagesAlexis Bledel & Milo Ventimiglia
Did you know that Alexis Bledel and Milo Ventimiglia didn't just fall in love as Rory and Jess on Gilmore Girls, they fell for each other IRL, too.
The pair met on the 00's TV show, and then dated for three years before calling it quits in 2006. They kept their romance a secret, and Alexis did say in an interview that she and Milo spoke about marriage while they were together: “I think everybody who has been dating for more than a couple of years probably talks about it at some point. It’s a fun thing for us to talk about, but that’s it.”
Alexis is now married to Mad Men's Vincent Kartheiser and the pair have one child. Milo is currently single.
FameFlyNetBradley Cooper and Renee Zellweger
When one GLAMOUR staff told us this happened, we nearly spat out our coffee. Yes Bridget Jones's Baby actress Renee Zellweger and The Hangover hottie Bradley Cooper dated for a whole TWO years before splitting in 2011. The pair, who first met on the set of Case 39 in 2006, before reportedly splitting due to Bradley's work commitments.
But back to our first point... Whaaaa?
Kim Kardashian & Nick Cannon
Kim Kardashian’s sex tape may have led to her lucrative career as a reality TV star but it ended her relationship with Nick Cannon. The two started dating in September 2006 but the relationship was short lived, although it did last longer than 72 days! In an interview on The Howard Stern Show in 2012, Nick admitted that the reason he split up with Kim because she had lied about having a sex tape with former boyfriend Ray J.
He said: "This was my issue. We talked about this tape…And she told me there was no tape. If she might have been honest with me I might have tried to hold her down and be like 'That was before me' because she is a great girl”. Since splitting from ex-wife Mariah Carey, Nick has been linked to a number of women including Amber Rose and Heidi Klum.
Drew Barrymore & David Arquette
They played brother and sister in Never Been Kissed but did you know that they secretly dated? David divulged that he and Drew dated years ago.
"[Drew and I] used to date when we were very young kids. Well, not little kids!", he revealed.
"She's just one of the sweetest, kindest people in Hollywood. She always has been, and she always will be. She's just a lovely, sweet person. We used to run around and just be silly.'
January Jones and Ashton Kutcher
Back in 1998, the year he landed his role as Michael Kelso in That 70's Show, Ashton Kutcher was dating Mad Men’s January Jones. The pair made it to three years before splitting in 2001, and it would seem that Ashton’s lack of support over January’s ambitions contributed to their break-up. The actress has accused Ashton of: “Not [being] supportive of my acting. He was like, 'I don't think you're going to be good at this’. So—f*** you! He only has nice things to say now—if anything, I should thank him. Because the minute you tell me I can’t do something, that’s when I’m most motivated.”
Celebs That Changed Weight For A Role
The Stars – When They Were Young

Jennifer Love Hewitt & Joey Lawrence
Imagine if this pair had married - she'd be Jennifer Lawrence, and that could have been awkward for the ACTUAL Jennifer Lawrence. This pair got together after the popularity of Party of Five made Jennifer Love Hewitt a household name, but they only lasted for a few months.

Matthew Perry & Heather Graham
This pair dated briefly in 2003, but it all ended fine because the two actors have remained friendly over the years, with Graham guest-starring on two of Perry's shows, Studio 60 On The Sunset Strip and Go On, after the breakup.

Michael Keaton & Courteney Cox
In the 90s, Friends star Courteney Cox dated a Batman! The pair dated for six years but in 1995 they parted ways. Courteney told People magazine shortly after the split: "It's the most important relationship I've ever had, and I think he's the most wonderful person I've ever met."

Seal & Tyra Banks
Heidi Klum’s ex hubby managed to woo supermodel Tyra Banks in 1996. The pair kept their fling under wraps making only one public appearance as a couple during their short lived romance.

Justin Timberlake & Fergie
Age clearly wasn’t an issue when it came to love for Justin Timberlake and Fergie. It’s not much of a surprise, but JT was a hit with the older ladies even before his career as a popstar took off as he bagged himself a relationship with a 23-year-old Fergie at the age of 16 in 1996. "Justin and I would go out together and have fun and make out” said the Black Eyed Peas star in an interview, “we were never serious. He was Mr. Right Now."

Ryan Reynolds & Kristen Johnston
Way before Blake Lively, Scarlett Johansson and even Alanis Morrisette, Ryan Reynolds dated 3rd Rock from the Sun star Kristen Johnston. Their fling was debuted in 1991 when the pair attended the film premiere of The Green Mile together.

Robert Downey Jr & Sarah Jessica Parker
The Iron Man star and Sex and The City goddess dated from 1984 to 1991. The Hollywood couple were ‘absolutely’ in love according to Robert Downey Jr, who opened up about how he made peace with the former love of his life on an American TV show last year, 24 years after their break up. The pair split after seven years together when Sarah Jessica Parker called it quits due to the actor’s drug addiction.
During an interview on The Howard Stern Show in April 2015, Robert Downey Jr spoke about his visit to his ex-girlfriend’s home in New York. "You know, you always have this impression of someone you spent a big chunk of your life with ... and I think the further you get away from that in your new relationship, you sub-intentionally taint your perception of the person," he mused. "And seeing her I was like, she's so great and so cool and so funny and in command, and I got to meet her kids and I saw the way that she and (her husband) Matthew lived, and I respect both of them so much."
Robbie Williams & Cameron Diaz
Yep, that’s right - Robbie Williams managed to work his British charm on Cameron Diaz in 2003 when the pair were spotted getting close in Santa Monica. The romance was short lived as the unexpected couple’s summer fling was over before we could say ‘Good Morning, Charlie’.
Nevertheless, Diaz kept Robbie’s love life alive even after the pair split as the former Take That heartthrob’s wife Ayda Field recently revealed that the Hollywood actress saved their relationship. Speaking on Loose Women, Ayda said: “A few months into our relationship, we had a break-up. Well we had a couple of break-ups actually. He went to the Chateau Marmont and got talking to Cameron Diaz. While they were talking, she said to him, you obviously still love your girlfriend; you need to go home to her. And he did. I always have a special place for her in my heart now.”
Getty ImagesDavid Spade & Julie Bowen
It’s safe to say that David Spade is no stranger to a Hollywood romance. Having dated a string of beautifully blonde actresses from Heather Locklear to Nicollete Sheirdan throughout the past decade, it’s clear he has a type. Known for his funny man charms, it's no surprise that the actor even managed to bag himself a year long relationship with Modern Family star Julie Bowen back in 2002. Bowen married current husband Scott Phillips two years later on 4th September 2004 before giving birth to their three children.
Getty ImagesWinona Ryder and Matt Damon
Who woulda thought?! Matt Damon and Winona Ryder dated for around two years in 2000, keeping their relationship fairly low profile. During that time, both sides faced cheating rumours. Speaking to Playboy after they broke up, Matt said:
“It ended for reasons far more pedestrian than, say, a mad orgy at the Four Seasons during which my feelings were hurt because Richard Gere was too interested in her.” Oops...
Rex FeaturesSimon Cowell and Amanda Holden
Yep that's right... Britain's got Talent's bickering duo Amanda Holden and Simon Cowell once dated. "Simon always tells people he hired me because he fancied me but that’s absolute nonsense. He doesn’t go for blondes," Amanda said. Explaining the date, she said: "A very long time ago, when we were both single, we went out on a date but I pre-ordered a cab to come and get me at 10.30pm, which made him laugh and he never forgot that." The date didn't go to plan then, Simon?
Getty ImagesRyan Reynolds & Alanis Morrisette
Back before Blake Lively, back before even Scarlett Johansson, Ryan Reynolds was engaged to fellow Canadian Alanis Morrisette. The pair were together four and a half year before they broke up in 2007 and the singer went on to pen an album about the beak-up. “I didn't even realize it while I was writing the record, but it definitely goes through all the stages of grief,” said the singer of Flavors Of Entanglement.
Rex FeaturesKylie Minogue & Rupert Penry Jones

She's a sweetheart but we're not dating, we're just friends. That's about all there is right now."

Apparently the kiss happened when she was filming Sabrina The Teenage Witch, after he presented her with an expensive Beluga watch as a present. Writing in her memori, the actress said: “He was 17 and I was, like, 19. I was like, ‘You're too young for me.’ So I stopped his car ... and I wasn't sure; am I gonna get mad at him? I wasn't sure so I just grabbed him and started kissing him. You get a piece of jewellery like that, you gotta make out with the guy!”

Friends say they just flirted but it’s rumoured that Julia turned down Gwyneth Paltrow’s Oscar-winning role in Shakespeare In Love because Daniel Day-Lewis wasn’t interested in the part of Will Shakespeare so who knows!
Getty ImagesChristian Bale & Drew Barrymore
Try as we might we just can’t imagine these two together but 20 years ago Drew Barrymore and Christian Bale had a “thang”.

Getty ImagesVanessa Hudgens & Josh Hutcherson
Josh Hutcherson dated Vanessa Hudgens after they met on the set of Journey 2: The Mysterious Island but, by the sound of things, it didn’t end amiably. “I think getting broken up with is worse than breaking up with somebody. For me it hurts more when you’re ready for something to keep going and the other person isn’t. I was blind at first by looks, by love, whatever. I’ve been known to fall hard and quick for girls, which I think is better than not falling at all,” said the Hunger Games star.
GettyKim Kardashian & Nick Lachey

Julia then got one up on Kiefer by fleeing to Europe with his Lost Boys co-star Jason Patric. Somebody turn that into a movie? They did – Runaway Bride, starring Julia Roberts!
