Married Couples in real life from N+S


Many already know that Genie Francis ( Brett Main) and Jonathan Frakes ( Stanely Hazard) are married in real life but did you know that James Read ( George Harard) and Wendy Kilbourne ( Constance Flynn Hazard, the Irish pretty) get married in the movie and they met on the set and became a couple and 2 years later married in real life and are married to this day.

There's also Lesley Anne-Down's marriage to a grip on the production. And Parker Stevenson was married to Kirstie Alley after they met on the set of Book II. Both marriages have since ended.

Awww didn't know the other info. Thanks. I Can't wait for Book2. I never saw those when they came out.

I just learned that about Read and Kilbourne. What a good looking pair!

Until I came to this board, I never knew that James Read and Wendy Kilbourne became a couple in real life. Damn when they did the love scenes, the director probably had to hose them down because they probably were still going at it after he said "cut"...lol.

reply

Hahahah how true that is. I think its so cool that they are still to this day married. Its really rare to see that with actors.

reply

Yes I knew that. This miniserie built many true loves.

According to Kirstie Alley, she and Patrick Swayze fell in love (or at leas she did) on the set but never had a physical affair.
