After five years of romance that began on the set of Netflix’s steamy drama Sex/Life, Sarah Shahi and Adam Demos have officially called it quits. Multiple reports confirm that the couple, who turned their on-screen chemistry into a real-life relationship, ended things just a few weeks ago.
Sources close to the pair say that Shahi, 45, was the one who initiated the breakup. The two actors first met in 2020 while filming Sex/Life, where they played lovers Billie and Brad. Their connection was instant, with Shahi previously gushing about how they bonded over music, whiskey, and tequila, and how she was “blown away” by Demos both as a person and as a scene partner. Their relationship became public in late 2020, and they often shared affectionate posts on social media, fueling engagement and even marriage rumours in recent years.
Despite their strong start and public displays of affection, the couple’s relationship quietly ended in early April 2025. Insiders have not disclosed the reason for the split, but it’s clear that the decision was made amicably, with both moving forward in their respective careers. Shahi, who was previously married to actor Steve Howey, continues to star in new projects, while Demos remains active in the entertainment industry.
Fans of Sex/Life and the couple’s off-screen romance have expressed their surprise and disappointment online, but both actors have yet to make an official public statement about their breakup. For now, their whirlwind love story has come to a close, marking the end of one of Hollywood’s most-watched relationships of recent years.
