The Hulu series "Tell Me Lies" has an unusual track record for fostering real-life romance among its cast and crew. Despite the on-screen relationships being described as "terrifying," the show has successfully played matchmaker for multiple couples.
Actors Grace Van Patten and Jackson White, who portray the messy college relationship of Lucy and Stephen, have been dating since 2022. They have spoken openly about their comfortable working dynamic, despite knowing each other intimately.
Further cementing the show's romantic legacy, Branden Cook, who plays Evan, is engaged to Katherine Hughes, his on-screen love interest. Additionally, Spencer House and Sonia Mena, who played onscreen couple Pippa and Wrigley, also found love off-screen.
The show's creator confirmed in February 2026 that costume designer Charlotte Svenson and writer Liz Elverenli found love after working together. Cast members attribute these successful pairings to the casting director and the close bonds formed during production.
