Talk about a meet-cute! James Lafferty<\/strong><\/a> and Alexandra Park<\/strong><\/a>\u2019s love story began on a TV set \u2014 and they have since played a small screen couple<\/a> in 2021\u2019s Everyone Is Doing Great<\/em>.<\/p>\n The One Tree Hill<\/em><\/a> alum first crossed paths with Park when he directed a 2015 episode of The Royals <\/em>(which shared a created team with The CW drama). Lafferty went on to direct four more episodes of the E! series, while his love played one of the lead characters, Princess Eleanor, on all four seasons.<\/p>\n The couple have since remained somewhat tightlipped<\/a> about their romance. However, when Lafferty popped the question in the fall of 2020, he couldn\u2019t help but share the news with his social media followers.<\/p>\n \u201cShe said yeah \ud83d\ude4c\ud83c\udffc\u263a\ufe0f,\u201d the Right Stuff<\/em> alum captioned a snap of the newly engaged pair<\/a> in September of that year while snuggling in the kitchen.<\/p>\n Park, for her part, exclusively told Us Weekly<\/em><\/a> in January 2021 why she and Lafferty like to keep their romance out of the limelight.<\/p>\n \u201cWe are very private by choice, but we want to get some love out for the show, and we want to share our lives with our supporters and fans,\u201d the Shooting in Vain<\/em> actress said at the time. \u201cWe walk the line of putting a little bit out there at times.\u201d<\/p>\n That line, however, doesn\u2019t apply to working together on screen. In fact, Park told Us<\/em> in January 2021 that the lovebirds came up with the idea for Everyone Is Doing Great<\/em><\/a> together. (The show premiered on Hulu that same month.)<\/p>\n \u201cWe thought it would just be great [to play a married couple]. The chemistry is in there,\u201d the Elephant Princess<\/em> alum recalled. \u201cWe love working together. That\u2019s one of the things I\u2019m so grateful about in our relationship is that we\u2019re able to work together doing the things that we love, so we just thought it would be really fun to play around with the dynamic of Jeremy and Andrea in obviously something that\u2019s very opposite to our personal relationship.\u201d<\/p>\n Four months later, Lafferty again let fans into his world with Park while gushing over his then-fianc\u00e9e\u2019s book<\/a>, Sugar High<\/em>.<\/p>\n
