Rob Lowe has revealed he and Demi Moore shared a brief romance during their Brat Pack era, decades before their current collaboration on a potential St. Elmo's Fire sequel. The revelation came during Lowe's appearance on Kelly Ripa's Let's Talk Off Camera podcast on Wednesday, where the 9-1-1: Lone Star actor confirmed the pair's chemistry in 1986's About Last Night wasn't purely on-screen.
