Hollywood Celebrity Exes Who Worked Together Post Breakup: From Lili Reinhart-Cole Sprouse to Blake Lively-Penn Badgley
When two actors play couples onscreen and share kisses or heartfelt moments, they often fall in love in real life too. And when things start to go South and they unravel that the spark between them has died, or worse, never existed, the two take the difficult decision of breaking up. But when they have to continue to work together and be on the same set, it can get difficult. That's when their true professionalism is tested. Several actors have continued to work together in films and TV shows despite not being able to look eye to eye in real life. Here are 10 Hollywood exes who shared screen space despite parting ways and calling it quits. Cameron Diaz and Justin Timberlake Relationship Timeline: 2003 to 2007 Worked Together On: Bad Teacher Diaz and Timberlake first met at the Nickelodeon Kids' Choice Awards in 2003, and soon rumors of romance between the two started swirling.

In 2011, they shared screen space in the comedy-drama film Bad Teacher, directed by Jake Kasdan. When asked about the collaboration, Diaz told US Weekly that Timberlake was the best choice for the role and she always shared a good laugh with him on sets. Nina Dobrev and Ian Somerhalder Worked Together On: The Vampire Diaries The pair fell in love on the set of the American supernatural teen drama TV series The Vampire Diaries.

While the series concluded in 2017 after airing eight seasons and 171 episodes, Dobrev left the show after its sixth season in 2015. The pair proved that they can keep their personal and professional lives separate as they didn't let their differences affect their performances. They even bagged the Best Chemistry trophy at the 2014 People's Choice Awards. Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony Relationship Timeline: 2004 to 2011 Worked Together On: Spanish album Ni Tú Ni Yo Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony started dating in 2003, and they tied the knot in 2004.

Jennifer Garner and Michael Vartan Relationship Timeline: 2003 to 2004 Worked Together On: Alias Before tying the knot with Ben Affleck, Garner briefly dated Vartan while working on the TV show Alias. Despite parting ways, they remained friends and kept working on the TV show until 2006. In 2018, Vartan was asked if he would ever reconcile with Gartner. To which, he said that if something didn't work the first time, it would never work. On Alias, Gartner played the role of Sydney Bristow, a double agent for the Central Intelligence Agency posing as an operative for SD-6. Vartan played the role of Michael Vaughn, one of Sydney Bristow's co-workers and her love interest.

After four years of dating, they parted ways in 2014. Despite their split, they shared screen space as Mystique and Beast in X-Men: Days of Future Past, X-Men: Apocalypse, and X-Men: Dark Phoenix. In an interview with Elle, Hoult explained how he managed to work with Lawrence despite their separation. He said, "It's like going back to school after the summer holidays. The reality of [the X-Men franchise] is that there are lots of characters, so everyone was together for brief periods, but not every day for four months." Zendaya and Jacob Elordi Relationship Timeline: 2019 to 2020 Worked Together On: Euphoria and Deep Water The two co-stars reportedly dated for a brief period in 2019 and 2020.

Despite calling off their relationship, the two continued to share screen space in The Kissing Booth trilogy as Elle Evans and Noah Flynn. In 2020, King shared that working with her ex wasn't the easiest thing to do, especially since people would be watching the two onscreen with curiosity about their relationship. "No one's thinking to themselves, 'That was easy,' because it wasn't. I'm sure people will analyze every movement and every detail. And you know what? Let them," she told Cosmo at the time. "But at the end of the day, I was just thrilled to be Elle Evans again." Camila Mendes and Charles Melton Relationship Timeline: 2018 to 2019 and 2021 to 2022 Worked Together On: Riverdale The two actors met on the set of the TV series Riverdale.

In 2015, Badgley revealed that they didn't let their complicated relationship affect their work or get in the way of their jobs. "We were constantly professional to be honest, and we should both pat ourselves on the back because anything is complicated in that way… and we handled it," Penn said. Hollywood celebrities have proven that it's possible to put professionalism above personal feelings, be it due to contracts or on fans' demand. It's admirable how these stars have shown emotional maturity by staying friendly despite nasty breakups and doing justice to their jobs.

Jennifer Garner honors childhood teachers in sweet tribute: 'I love you'
Jennifer Garner is celebrating Teacher Appreciation Week by paying tribute to two educators who she said deeply impacted her life. In an Instagram post Tuesday, the actress shared a heartfelt message alongside photos and videos featuring her former elementary school librarian and her former ballet teacher. "Never miss an opportunity to thank a teacher who shaped you," she wrote in the caption. "Teaching is hard! I'm so lucky to have been taught by my lifelong friend Annyce McCann. And my lifelong mentor Nina Denton Pasinetti." The "Alias" and "Deadpool & Wolverine" actress ended her heartfelt tribute with a personal note, writing, "Thank you, Mom McCann and Ms. D, I love you. ♥️." One video in Garner's post features a montage of her childhood dance moments, as she reflects on growing up in West Virginia and training with her ballet teacher, Nina Denton Pasinetti. Garner credited Pasinetti with shaping her understanding of integrity, discipline, connecting to her body and athleticism. "And of course, that's totally changed who I am in my career, because I'm not afraid of physicality," Garner says in the video. Another clip of Garner included in her Instagram post shows her honoring her "favorite teacher ever," librarian Annyce McCann, whom she says she loved so much that she called her "Mom McCann." "She totally understood my love of stories and books and fed me one book after another," the actress says in the video. "She let me help in the library during lunch and after school and during breaks, and she let me help order new books and work the card catalog." "And she even published a little story that I had written." Garner added. "She 'published' it herself, made it its own card for the card catalog and gave it a spot on the shelf in the school library." Garner has long been an advocate for teachers. Last June, she wrote a heartfelt thank-you note to educators on Instagram, marking the end of her family's 13-year journey through elementary school. "A little gratitude for our wonderful family elementary school at the end of 13 years together applies to all educators: thank you for doing what you do. ♥️ ," she wrote at the time. "And congratulations to all the mamas out there with kids moving from one phase to the next."

Jennifer Garner steps out with John Miller in LA as she offers glimpse into domestic life after he 'moved in'
Jennifer Garner and her boyfriend John Miller were spotted on a rare outing together Saturday in Los Angeles. The couple, who have been dating on off since 2018, stepped out for a quick grocery run. Garner, 53, looked relaxed in a black hoodie and leggings with white sneakers and sock with a pink and yellow trim. Her long, chestnut locks were pulled back in a ponytail and covered with a black billed hat. Miller, 47, donned a gray crewneck sweater, jeans and brown boots for the trip to Vicente Foods. It comes after a report claimed the couple, who have been dating on-off since 2018, are now essentially living together, but 'part time.' 'John is basically living with Jennifer,' a source told UsWeekly on Wednesday, noting it was only 'part time.' The site also claimed he moved out of his Los Angeles home after the wildfires ravaged several neighborhoods in the Southern California city, and he has yet to find a new pad. 'He has an office in L.A. and splits his time between staying there and at Jennifer's home,' the source said. 'But he's been staying with Jennifer more often [and] doesn't want to impose, so he's looking for his own place… [and] deciding whether he'll rent or buy.' Jennifer gave fans a glimpse into her relaxing Saturday morning activities. Garner shared a snap of a golden brown 'weekend focaccia'. The scrumptious-looking bread was fresh out of the oven and perhaps John enjoyed a slice. The 13 Going On 30 star was previously married to actor Ben Affleck from 2005 to 2018 and they share kids Violet, 19, Seraphina, 16, and Samuel, 13. The pair have remained friendly since their 2018 divorce. They are the parents of three; Violet, 19, Fin, 16, and Sam, 13, and will sometimes do family activities together. Affleck recently bought a house just minutes away from Garner's to be closer to his children following his divorce from Jennifer Lopez. Earlier in the day, the Alias star shared some information on Day 17 of her effort to run a mile a day for 67 days to draw attention to the needs of suffering children around the world. 'So, why is famine such a huge problem right now in Eastern Africa?' she asked rhetorically, while huffing through her neighborhood. Trying to make the situation relatable she said, 'A lot of this sounds very familiar to California; drought, then wildfire, then flooding, mudslides, so that is stuff we all know about.' Those problems result in 'loss of livestock. Loss of crops. War', adding 'thank God that is not an issue we are living through right now.' She then spoke about what happens when these kinds of catastrophes begin their domino effect. The Alias star shared information as she ran a mile on day 17 of 67 to draw attention to the needs of suffering children around the world. '$67 saves the life of a child,' she said 'Displacement of people, and all of this together has put kids in more peril than ever in our world, so we're running for them. $67 saves the life of a child,' she said at the conclusion of the clip. The Yes Day actress announced her endeavor on her birthday, April 17, as a way to provide therapeutic nutrition for some 16 thousand children suffering from acute malnutrition. Garner has been an ambassador for Save the Children since 2009. She has been a member of the board of the charitable organization since 2014.
