David Spade and Julie Bowen

Julie Bowen and David Spade may sound like an odd couple, but the two had a real connection back in 2002. While Julie was still early in her career and David was already known for his comedy chops, they enjoyed a short relationship filled with laughs and mutual admiration.

Though they lasted less than a year, they’ve remained friends since. Julie has said that not everyone understood what she saw in David, but his sense of humor made him irresistible. They might not have gone the distance, but their brief romance proved that opposites—especially in height and vibe—can definitely attract.
