Megan Fox confirmed that she had a 'romantic' relationship with her co-star Shia LaBeouf after meeting on the set of Transformers.
Fox and LaBeouf famously played love interests Mikaela Banes and Sam Witwicky in the sci-fi action flick, later reprising their roles in the follow-up film Transformers: Revenge of the Fallen.
And it would seem that Fox and LaBeouf's chemistry wasn't just the product of good acting either, as the Jennifer's Body star would later go on to confirm that romantic feelings did exist between the two of them.
The rumours of a fling were confirmed by LaBeouf during a 2011 interview with Details magazine, in which he admitted: "Look, you’re on the set for six months, with someone who’s rooting to be attracted to you, and you’re rooting to be attracted to them.

"I never understood the separation of work and life in that situation. But the time I spent with Megan was our own thing, and I think you can see the chemistry onscreen."
Meanwhile Fox, who was in an on-off relationship with former husband Brian Austin Green around the time, had remained rather coy on the subject over the years.
Until a fateful appearance on Andy Cohen's Watch What Happens Live in 2018.
During a game of 'Plead The Fifth' with Tyra Banks, the 38-year-old actor was pressed for an answer to LaBeouf's comments, when host Cohen asked if he was correct in describing their relationship as romantic.
"I mean, I would confirm that it was romantic," Fox replied. "I love him, I have never been really quiet about that, I love him."
Cohen then asked her to clarify if it was just an on-set romance that didn’t go anywhere afterwards, to which she responded: "Yeah."
Unfortunately for fans of the pair, the relationship never worked out, as Fox would go on to marry her Hope & Faith co-star Green in June 2010. The couple share three children together but ultimately went their separate ways in 2020.
Fox, who has since gone on to welcome a fourth child with Machine Gun Kelly, would later admit that she was 'not a great girlfriend' during her relationship with Green and often fell 'in love' with other people 'all the time'.
Opening up about their time together during an episode of the Call Her Daddy podcast, Fox revealed that she was too young to be in a relationship of such 'commitment and magnitude' during her late teens and early twenties. Fox was 18 when their relationship began, while Green was 30.
"I was not a great girlfriend to Brian. I'll be very honest," she said.
"I would go to work and fall in love because I was a kid. And, yeah, I never had the full freedom to be single and experience that life."
