Alright, here's the scoop everyone's buzzing about! If you're a fan of Schitt's Creek, you might be wondering: Did Eugene Levy ever date his on-screen partner, Catherine O'Hara? Well, the two legends finally opened up about their relationship during the January 23 episode of Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen. Let's dive in!
The Chemistry That Stole Our Hearts
Catherine O’Hara is nothing if not candid, and she didn’t hold back when discussing what originally drew her to Eugene. “There’s nothing sexier than laughing together and having someone who makes you laugh,” she confessed. Back in the day, at Second City Theater, everyone was trying to date each other because they just couldn’t resist the allure of shared laughter. “He makes me laugh, so I thought, ‘Why not give it a shot?’” Catherine recalled with a chuckle. “We went out maybe once or twice? But hey, who’s counting?”
Thankfully, both Catherine and Eugene quickly realized they were better suited as friends. “Thank goodness he’s a gentleman,” Catherine gushed. “He’s always been a gentleman, and we get to have this incredible working relationship because we didn’t go anywhere.” Now that’s what I call a mature decision!

From Stage to Screen: A Beautiful Partnership
On Schitt’s Creek, Eugene and Catherine play a married couple, but in real life, Eugene is married to Deborah Divine, and Catherine is happily wed to Bo Welch. The beauty of their professional relationship is that it allows them to bring their A-game to the screen without any personal drama. And let’s not forget, Eugene gets to work alongside his talented kids, Dan and Sarah Levy, which makes the experience even more special.
“I never get over the fact that I’m actually on set with my kids,” Eugene shared with People. “It’s such a unique opportunity to collaborate with them and watch them grow as actors. Clearly, raising them away from the spotlight has had a profoundly positive impact.”
