Christine Taylor has made an astonishing confession about her relationship with Ben Stiller.

The actress recently appeared on the We’re Still Here, Babes podcast, where she revealed that she initially thought her romance with the comedian was a “rebound,” but the couple married just six months after they began dating.

Christine and Ben first met in 1999 while working on an unreleased TV pilot, Heat Vision and Jack.

“That became the beginning of an entirely new chapter of my life, because Ben and I hit it off on the set,” she said. “We went on a date towards the end of the shoot, and then just kind of went on this frenzied romance.

“We both thought [it] was our sort of rebound romance, ’cause I had just broken up with someone, and he was just getting out of something,” Christine added.

“We just were having fun, and just having a great time together. We kinda kept it on the down-low. It wasn’t like I was telling — I told my closest friends and family, but not my peripheral group of friends for a while,” Christine said.

“We took a big leap. And then, yeah, then we got married in May of 2000, and then I had our daughter the next year, and then we worked together a bunch. We did Zoolander together, we did Dodgeball together,” she added.

It is worth noting that Christine and Ben rekindled their romantic relationship in 2022, approximately five years after their separation.

Christine Joan Taylor is an American actress known for playing Marcia Brady in The Brady Bunch Movie and A Very Brady Sequel. She has also appeared in films including The Craft, The Wedding Singer, Zoolander and Dodgeball. On television, she has had roles in Hey Dude, Arrested Development and Search Party.
