Of course, like many relationships on the show, it had its ups and downs.
In 2006, Michele and Groff co-starred in the broadway show “Spring Awakening.”
“He’s been through more ups and downs with me than anyone else.
He’s like a brother, and I love him like crazy.”
With all that love in mind, here’s the truth about Lea Michele’s relationship with Jonathan Groff.
It was not just because of what their roles entailed, but the instant connection they felt between them.
Once Michele confronted Groff about why he didn’t love her, she knew.
“I just saw this look in his eyes …
I realized in that moment, ‘This is the end.’
And I need to protect this.
This is intense.”
After that, the actress didn’t bring up her co-star’s sexuality again.
“That’s why Jonathan and I became so close.
We were so intertwined.”
“I can confirm that,” he said in response.
“And I was like, ‘Sure.’
And I took a desk lamp … and showed him.
“I’ve never seen Jonathan naked.
I’ve never seen his penis,” Michele clarified.
Speaking toPeople, Michele said she was appreciative of how much they trusted each other off-stage.
A year later, Michele opened up about Montieth’s death during her interview with Groff forTeen Vogue.
She also expressed her gratitude for the support system she had at the time, including Groff.
Speaking toVanity Fair, Michele expanded upon Groff’s support further.
The couple first started dating in 2017, and a year later, they were engaged.
