These 7 Platonic Hollywood Relationships Prove It Isn’t Always About Being in Love

When you read stories about Hollywood stars of the opposite gender, it’s almost guaranteed to be about their romantic relationship. Therefore, it comes as no surprise that when you see Hollywood co-stars together, rumors often swirl and it becomes a game of “are they or aren’t they” that their publicists have to then deny that they’re an item. Believe it or not, there are plenty of platonic relationships amongst actors who have no interest in being in love. Here are 7 that you might not know about.

1. Drew Barrymore and Adam Sandler

When you think 90s comedies, Barrymore and Sandler really stick out. When they starred in the modern classic “The Wedding Singer,” a budding friendship formed that is still going strong more than 20 years later. They subsequently shared the screen in 2004’s “50 First Dates,” and the 2014 comedy “Blended.” Although they have never actually dated (Adam has been married to wife Jackie since 2003), it’s no secret that they have a lot of respect for each other. In fact, in Drew’s memoir, Wildflower, she devotes an entire chapter on Sandler and how much of an impact he has had on her personal and professional life.
