12 celebs you didn’t know were in secret relationships (With Pictures)

7. Fergie

Fergie had a secret fling with Justin Timberlake, in 1996. A large part of the reason why the relationship was a huge secret is that entertainment blogs and constant news reports about celebrities weren’t as prevalent back then. Fergie was 23 at the time, and Justin was only 16! It’s a good thing charges weren’t filed against Fergie. Timberlake went on to have a serious relationship with a woman closer to his own age—Britney Spears—but we all know how that ended. Fergie and Justin are now both married to other people, and Timberlake recently welcomed a son with his wife Jessica Biel.
