It’s not always true that what happens on the guy ranch stays on the dude ranch.

Hey Dude co-stars Christine Taylor and David Lascher just claimed they had an IRL affair while filming the ’90s sitcom, which is likely to throw nostalgic Nickelodeon fans into a frenzy.

“You were my first real love and it was full of teen angst and all you can imagine,” David recalled to the actress on the Dec. 12 mini-episode of the Hey Dude… The 90’s Called! podcast. “We get asked this all the time, and we’re like, ‘No, nobody dated.'”

Christine explained that David was her “second boyfriend” and admitted that the two were “head over heels for each other” off-screen.

“It was total infatuation for sure,” she said. “He was my first love and I was so infatuated with you, and loved you so much.”

She added, “We didn’t own it at that point. Now I think we just have to own it.”

A group of youths who worked at the fictional Bar None Dude Ranch in Arizona were the focus of the television series Hey Dude, which ran for five seasons between 1989 and 1991. David, 50, played the attractive but trouble-prone Ted McGriff, while Christine, 51, portrayed cheerful blonde lifeguard Melody Hanson. (Paramount+ presently has the show available for streaming.)

“We would just make fun of everything and everyone in a lighthearted way,” David remembered. “We just laughed for two years straight.

The young romance eventually ended, though. Following their breakup, according to Christine, they “continued trying to find our way back to one other,” but eventually came to the conclusion that their relationship was over.

“I think it was the fact that we were working together and living together in this hotel, we were with each other 24 hours a day, seven days a week, and that’s not how young love thrives,” she explained. “You need space to be your own person.”

Christine said that the ex-forced couple’s collaboration “was not fun.” She also admitted fault for the breakup, calling herself “awful” for how she handled the situation.

“I was so non-confrontational,” The Brady Bunch Movie star noted. “I probably had no idea how to talk or deal with it. How great is it we can unpack it now?”
