Rob Lowe and Demi Moore "briefly had a thing" in the 1980s. The 60-year-old actor starred alongside Demi in the 1985 coming-of-age film 'St. Elmo's Fire', and Rob has now admitted to having had a romantic relationship with his former co-star.

During an appearance on the 'Let’s Talk Off Camera' podcast, Kelly Ripa observed: "You two have crazy good chemistry." The Hollywood duo also starred alongside each other in 'About Last Night', the 1986 rom-com, and Rob admitted that it's still one of his favourite movies. He shared: "Of all the stuff I did in the ’80s, if I had to pick one, it would for sure be 'About Last Night'.

" Kelly, 54, subsequently asked Rob whether they ever had a romantic relationship. The talk-show host said: "Did you have a crush on her? Did you guys ever date? Did you all date each other?" Rob then explained: "I mean, Demi and I briefly - I'm not telling tales out of school - we briefly had a thing. "Look, anytime you put young 20-something men and women together, hook-ups are inevitable.

" Rob and Demi, 61, could actually reunite at some point to make a 'St. Elmo's Fire' sequel. Speaking about the possibility, Rob said: "It's moving along.

"It's going a little more slowly than I would have liked, but that's a good thing because we're trying to find the right, writer and the right story. But all of the actors, everybody is on board. Everybody's excited.

" Rob is "super excited" about the prospect of making a sequel. The actor said: "I actually think there'.
