Give it up for the ‘man and wife’ of steel. Or, would that be the ‘woman and husband’ of steel? Melissa Benoist — aka the titular star of the CW’s Supergirl – found her Clark Kent in her co-star, Chris Wood. The two fell in love while on set together, and their on-screen chemistry led to an off-screen romance. They practically confirmed their relationship in March 2017 when they were seen boarding a plane in LAX. A few days later, all doubt was put aside when they were spotted making out in Mexico. From there, their love leaped tall buildings with a single bound. They announced their engagement in February 2019. Melissa and Chris shared the same picture to their social media, one that had him kissing her cheek while she flaunted her massive diamond engagement ring. The couple reportedly tied the knot six months later in California. The whole planet of Krypton would be proud.
