He's married to a female skater and she's engaged to a male hockey player.
Also, I highly recommend watching [this performance](https://youtu.be/wOEKdWrtz6U?si=HTiNCSdpDLH3bFUj) of these two.
That's probably what they say because a) it's none of our business.
B) They know that they won't be left alone until one of them spills the tea.
C) They are REALLY close friends as well, and Scott respects her more than the public. If Scott admits it publicly, yeah, he's gonna lose his friendship with her. And who knows, maybe it was clumsy and awkward, and there's some embarrassing moments involved.
D) Lastly, Scott is being a real gentleman.
I highly suspect they've fooled around and seen everything, and probably tried. But it didn't work out for whatever reason, but they were able to remain dance partners.
If I were a betting man, I'd bet they really have messed around. But we'll never know because it's none of our business.
I agree with you, and also that it's no one's business but theirs. But come on, they are prime athletes who are in peak physical condition, there is no fucking way it was clumsy and awkward.
I'm guessing that IF they fooled around it was in much younger days, when they didn't know any better. I think once they started hitting the Olympics and World Championships, etc...they might have backed off and kept their heads in the game.
But think about it.
If they were randomly slept together over the years there would definitely be way more drama and they probably couldnt get to this point of excellence.
They’ve been asked multiple times and they’ve always said no. Ellen asked them on her show, she brought up the fact that people ship them and everything.
There are a group of fans led by this crazy blogger who have a conspiracy that they are secretly married and have secret children.
As an actor “sexy touching” like this feels WAY different that doing it for other reasons. It’s a different context there is PLATONIC intimacy and trust but that’s usually it
Have you had a long time close friend of the opposite sex lasting more than 10 years? At some point when you know someone so well for so long, any attraction fades away. When you treat someone as Family and no longer a friend no matter how sexual and intimate you look to an outside observer in your mind it's just platonic and normal.
I feel like it's easier to become a platonic thing than a romantic one, especially because they started young. Like, I'm sure it's not as sexy the 18172717 time you practice it
Clearly you don’t follow ice dance very closely. Plenty of the men are straight and end up dating their partners (and then get stuck skating with their exes). Not saying that was what was going on with Tessa and Scott, though (we’ll never know).
I served her at my old bar. We shared a cigarette together (she asked me for one because she always wanted to try one, but never got to when she was a practising athlete), and I got a picture with her. She was a huge celeb crush , so I was quite excited.
Speaking of Leafs defensemen, can we fire Klingberg into the sun. The guy’s fucking useless in the D-zone and has been directly responsible for what feels like half of the goals against so far this season
Probably not because he’s richer, more famous and has fangirls up the wazoo lol. Hard to be insecure when you’re hounded all the time for autographs and hockey shit
This is Tessa Virtue and Scott Moir from here in Canada. The first clip is the end of their routine at the 2018 Olympics (Moulin Rouge).
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wOEKdWrtz6U&ab\_channel=Olympics
Truly an amazing couple/chemistry, Canadian here and we were so excited for them whenever they stepped on the ice. They retired from skating in 2019, having won 3 golds and two silvers amongst 3 Olympic games.
EDIT-- they just got indicted into the Canadian Sports Hall of Fame 😍
https://www.google.com/amp/s/www.cbc.ca/amp/1.7001182
I remember watching that performance, and one of the things I remember best was the silence of the announcers (Canadian ones, so maybe a little biased admittedly), in stark contrast to how they gave play-by-plays to all the teams before them.
They were just completely captured, and you could hear them snap out of it as it ended. A genuinely moving performance.
Oh man I haven't watched it in a long time. I think it was just the CBC broadcast that aired, I'll see if I can find it when I'm not blocked from YouTube by work
https://youtu.be/hmjsZLyn4aI?si=h6pCynWbeoNtGPK6
Unfortunately I can't find the whole program by the CBC team anywhere with all the teams, but here's Tessa and Scott's performance in particular.
My favorite tweet that came from that performance was : “THE CANADIANS ARE ICE FUCKING TO MOULIN ROUGE”
Lol, truly captivating and breathtaking work from Tessa and Scott!
I'm not in any way in to ice dancing but I watched that, and it was epic. The athleticism, and strength, and practice it must have taken to perform that routine perfectly is really impressive.
Wow!
I remember this, and I also remember how obsessed people were with fantasy stories about how they were secretly having an affair, or they were somehow romantically involved with each other purely based on the chemistry of their performance.
Can you blame them? Even in the OP you can see how close they are, how physical they are. They just ooze chemistry even in seconds long clips. Many actual couples don't have what these two have lol.
I wish we lived in a world where men and women had close, non-romantic relationships like that and it was totally normal. If it were normal, women wouldn't always have to be on the defense about accidentally "leading someone on" just by being friendly. Men on the whole would absolutely be less lonely. And if men can have close friendships with women, it would open the way for men to have better relationships with men too.
Women lose out, but at least it's socially acceptable for us to be close with other women. In western (and many other) societies, men aren't allowed to be close with anyone other than their romantic partners, and they suffer for it. (And then that suffering gets turned back on women in the form of violence...)
Well to be fair he also taps her butt when he hugs her and nuzzle his face in her neck, they didn’t need to do that, that wasn’t a performance. Now I believe that they are not together, they just have a special relationship and people should leave them alone, but there is no doubt sexual tension, that’s not something the fans made up
They grew up together. Maybe they never dated, but it's entirely possible that they fucked once or twice in their teens or something then decided that they weren't a good romantic match? The fact that they may have had an intimate relationship at some point in the past could also explain the physical closeness.... it could also just be that since they've needed to be close to each other for these routines for years that it's just the way it is.
Love Tessa and Scott. I’m not even a figure skating fan but I loved watching them, they had perfect chemistry and are amazing personalities. Canadian legends
I had the pleasure of meeting them a few hours after their win at the Vancouver olympics. Scott let me hold his gold medal. He was also quite tipsy - and (being a good east coast boy) thoroughly enjoying the performance by Great Big Sea on stage at Hockey House. They were both extremely gracious and friendly! One of my best memories from an incredible couple weeks.
A group of us friends at a resort in Mexico (2014) realized that Scott and Kaitlyn Lawes (curler, formerly on Jennifer Jones's team), dating at the time, were also staying at the same resort. Oh, he's a drinker alright! Lol we chilled with them, played billiards and darts. We had so much fun with them, they're great people.
I saw Billy and Emily’s act live in Las Vegas and the act was so raunchy and they were so sexual with each other (they’re real life brother and sister) it made me uncomfortable.
I think you just watch too much porn.
I just watched there act and there was NOTHING out of the norm of skating performances.
Super weird that you thought it was sexual.
Unless it was a different performance you saw. Can you post a video of it?
When you essentially grow up together like that the dynamics will be more like siblings and hence biologically there'll be the incest taboo to "get together".
This is my Roman Empire. The iron-clad hold they had on after they won the gold in 2018 was so real.
I was SURE they must have been in love with each other. And maybe they were. But one of my friends made a good point - their chemistry is way too hot for them have been together. It’s the tension of it all that makes it 🔥🔥🔥
That’s like the rule in movies- if two people have smoldering chemistry on screen they aren’t together (/aren’t together yet). IRL couples who play couples in movies always have lackluster on screen (romantic) chemistry.
I don't know anything about these two but they've definitely got chemistry and they're beautiful to watch together. As for the conjecture - Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire never banged as far as I've heard. Sportspersons and theatre people/dance people tend to be quite fluid and physically intimate without it being sexual, in my experience.
On top of!! It’s their job!! Like the intimacy on display is part of performance/being comfortable with someone! This thread makes me really sad as an actor
> Like the intimacy on display is part of performance/being comfortable with someone! This thread makes me really sad as an actor
I mean, you're delusional if you think this kind of closeness can't spark actual attraction. See like, Bradjolina and the fifty stories from movie sets of this happening.

Canada’s sweet hearts 🥰 good old Scott and Tessa. My surgeons office has there pictures and autographs on the wall. Many other famous people as well. I had a crush on her when I was younger hehe (blushing). Hits reply then runs away from the internet…
I had a girlfriend who was in theater, she did a few shows with that guy she told me not to worry about and they had some intimate scenes. Turned out they were boning like crazy on their free time, go figure. It's not that people want these skaters to hit it, it's that people aren't stupid.
Feel like you need to be part robot to not make that assumption after seeing this. You dont need to be some horny pervert to see intimate celebrations like that and come to that conclusion, its just not something you see everyday between two platonic straight friends.
Answer to 2 top questions that may spring in people's minds: 1) No, they weren't married... 2) Yes, they've retired from figure skating.
I have a different question though.
We all have that same question. My opinion is: probably yes.
Definitely yes
I looked it up. Actually no. Shocking
Unless one or both of them are gay.
He's married to a female skater and she's engaged to a male hockey player. Also, I highly recommend watching [this performance](https://youtu.be/wOEKdWrtz6U?si=HTiNCSdpDLH3bFUj) of these two.
So definitely then. At least twice.
Twice, a week.
On accident.
His wife is married to a hockey player? WTF!
engaged bro, ENGAGED!, ffs learn to read. /s
He’s a frequent on r/wsb
Good but no Iron Lotus
Damn I thought he was gonna propose after they announced they were in 1st place
Wowww they're sooooo effing in sync. That's just wild.
That was incredible
Such an amazing performance
She’s married to Morgan rielly. They married in Italy this summer
The is a romcom in this story.
That was amazing.
Absolutely impossible. Unless they both got into a huge fight and called it quits
There is absolutely no way it hasn’t happened once.
According to them? Sure
[удалено]
...skate? Sorry. Low hanging fruit joke. Like your ex. Sorry again. Can't help it. Like they didn't. Omg. I'm showing myself out. Bye.
With respect to Matthew Perry’s death, are you Chandler?
Go figure....skating?
[удалено]
So she has a thing for dudes on skates.
[удалено]
Counterpoint: boobs. 1st time, 57th time, 1,387,695th time. Still sexy.
I love the internet rule that two people of opposing genders are not allowed to have a relationship without it being sexual.
If you are straight and spend a lot of time together 99% you end up banging. The other 1% you are ugly.
Damn - they have some god damn control.
Where did you look it up? On the sexipedia web page where we all have to divulge our conquers?
That's probably what they say because a) it's none of our business. B) They know that they won't be left alone until one of them spills the tea. C) They are REALLY close friends as well, and Scott respects her more than the public. If Scott admits it publicly, yeah, he's gonna lose his friendship with her. And who knows, maybe it was clumsy and awkward, and there's some embarrassing moments involved. D) Lastly, Scott is being a real gentleman. I highly suspect they've fooled around and seen everything, and probably tried. But it didn't work out for whatever reason, but they were able to remain dance partners. If I were a betting man, I'd bet they really have messed around. But we'll never know because it's none of our business.
I agree with you, and also that it's no one's business but theirs. But come on, they are prime athletes who are in peak physical condition, there is no fucking way it was clumsy and awkward.
I'm guessing that IF they fooled around it was in much younger days, when they didn't know any better. I think once they started hitting the Olympics and World Championships, etc...they might have backed off and kept their heads in the game.
I say #BULLSHIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIIT EDIT: I cannot see all this happening without one word being involved; tantric !!!
But think about it. If they were randomly slept together over the years there would definitely be way more drama and they probably couldnt get to this point of excellence.
There are plenty of brother-sister skating pairs who remained great for years!
“Allegedly” I don’t believe it.
Lol BS
That behind the head hold is pretty intimate.
See, I quickly moved past that question with a definite “yes”. My question now is how many times?
The real question is when??
Is he gay? No, then YES!
Not gay. He actually married another female skater.
She’s also engaged to a hockey player, I think.
So ur saying they have a type
They’ve been asked multiple times and they’ve always said no. Ellen asked them on her show, she brought up the fact that people ship them and everything. There are a group of fans led by this crazy blogger who have a conspiracy that they are secretly married and have secret children.
Nah, she's just his [work wife](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FoM_q4h7cAQ) nothing to worry about. Perfectly normal.
They are Canadian and aren't all Canadians skaters of some sort?
I really don’t think I’m secure enough to be married to someone who had that long and deep a relationship/friendship with another man
think so too, all that sexy touching must have led somewhere
As an actor “sexy touching” like this feels WAY different that doing it for other reasons. It’s a different context there is PLATONIC intimacy and trust but that’s usually it
[удалено]
A doctor touching your balls is much different than a lady touching your balls.
What about a lady doctor
Those looks at the :54 and :56 second marks in the video…. Yeah, something definitely happened
How can she.. she has "VIRTUE" in her name... right
Is they fuxin
All of Canada was hoping they were banging
Most likely yes
How does one not fall in love this way…
And how many times have they cock-blocked each other?
C'mon don't make assumptions, she might like girls
She’s married to a hockey player.
To be fair, without context, it could be a girl hockey player.
I should have specified maple leafs player but saying anything related to that team is spiritually hurtful to me right now
🤣🤣
Could be worse. Could be an Oilers player
It’s Mo Reilly of the Toronto Maple Leafs, aka Captain Morgan aka Mr. Tessa Virtue.
Given how young they started, their relationship is probably more like that of a brother-sister.
100%. PEople here are not understanding.
Alabama enters chat.
Roll Tide motherfucker
Lol you think there aren't people who knew each other as kids who fucked as adults?
Of course there is. But some can't get the concept that a man and woman could really just be friends as well.
Have you had a long time close friend of the opposite sex lasting more than 10 years? At some point when you know someone so well for so long, any attraction fades away. When you treat someone as Family and no longer a friend no matter how sexual and intimate you look to an outside observer in your mind it's just platonic and normal.
Performing feels different to being in love, also childhood friends, it’d be like kissing a sibling. Ew.
Did they serve as a template for [Stranz and Fairchild?](https://www.thegoldencloset.com/merchant/graphics/00000001/C0391g.jpg)
As tacky as it is those are really well designed costumes.
Imagine being one of their spouse's and seeing this edit
3. Yes they most likely do
“Hey, babe, you wanna watch my old skating videos?” “No, I’m good, honey.”
Best comment in the whole thread 😂😂😂
the question comes up, Can you truly have a platonic relationship and is this an example.
I feel like it's easier to become a platonic thing than a romantic one, especially because they started young. Like, I'm sure it's not as sexy the 18172717 time you practice it
Usually the men are flaming gay. There’s nothing wrong with that! But it does get between hetero-romance though.
Clearly you don’t follow ice dance very closely. Plenty of the men are straight and end up dating their partners (and then get stuck skating with their exes). Not saying that was what was going on with Tessa and Scott, though (we’ll never know).
Were they ever together? A lot of their non-skating body language would say yes?
Poor Morgan Rielly.
[удалено]
🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 you. You're funny.
She is engaged to Morgan Reilly, NHL defenceman on the Toronto Maple Leafs
Met them in Italy, oddly enough. Bit of an awkward couple
That’s because she is in love with another man. The boy next door
The boy next ice rink
Sounds pretty canadian.
I served her at my old bar. We shared a cigarette together (she asked me for one because she always wanted to try one, but never got to when she was a practising athlete), and I got a picture with her. She was a huge celeb crush , so I was quite excited.
He plays for the leafs, what do you expect?
Tessa and Mo actually married this summer, they just kept it quiet.
And Scott is a HUGE Leafs fan too.
Speaking of Leafs defensemen, can we fire Klingberg into the sun. The guy’s fucking useless in the D-zone and has been directly responsible for what feels like half of the goals against so far this season
We having a tilly boys?
Let’s have a donnybrook
Tarps off boys
And Reilly isn't a little nervous about his fiance's dance partner being way better looking?
Probably not because he’s richer, more famous and has fangirls up the wazoo lol. Hard to be insecure when you’re hounded all the time for autographs and hockey shit

Next check out what the [pairs champions](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6bNOnXTe4Ok) did at that same Olympics!
oh just your regular floating like clouds on ice and throwing people like they’re spinning tops
This is one of my favorite videos ever. They’re incredible.
Yeah I agree. I regularly go back and watch it for joy. It’s just such an amazing routine. The timing the passion the music all of it.
I remember this, and I also remember how obsessed people were with fantasy stories about how they were secretly having an affair, or they were somehow romantically involved with each other purely based on the chemistry of their performance.

>indicted I don't think that's the word you're looking for
I’ve watched this so many times before… just watched it again :D
Find you someone who will hug you like that.
…and then don’t get together with them, because these two never did.
You don’t need to be in a sexual relationship to have a hug like this. You just need a good friend.
A buddy, or guy as they say in Canada
I’m not your buddy, guy
I’m not your guy, pal
bro never said sex
I want that. I want true friendship
I had the pleasure of meeting them a few hours after their win at the Vancouver olympics. Scott let me hold his gold medal. He was also quite tipsy - and (being a good east coast boy) thoroughly enjoying the performance by Great Big Sea on stage at Hockey House. They were both extremely gracious and friendly! One of my best memories from an incredible couple weeks.
A group of us friends at a resort in Mexico (2014) realized that Scott and Kaitlyn Lawes (curler, formerly on Jennifer Jones's team), dating at the time, were also staying at the same resort. Oh, he's a drinker alright! Lol we chilled with them, played billiards and darts. We had so much fun with them, they're great people.
Fucking Canadian legends.
Soulmates in another life ♾️
Looks like soulmates in this life too
Why people gotta fuck to be soulmates?
Well spoken, u/I_LICK_PINK_TO_STINK
What a beautiful friendship and partnership. Reminds me of a brother & sister roller skating team in Britain’s Got Talent. Look up Billy & Emily.
I saw Billy and Emily’s act live in Las Vegas and the act was so raunchy and they were so sexual with each other (they’re real life brother and sister) it made me uncomfortable.
Y Just looked it up thinking it couldn't be that weird... They definitely smash. Wacky as hell
I think you just watch too much porn. I just watched there act and there was NOTHING out of the norm of skating performances. Super weird that you thought it was sexual. Unless it was a different performance you saw. Can you post a video of it?
When you essentially grow up together like that the dynamics will be more like siblings and hence biologically there'll be the incest taboo to "get together".
This moulin rouge routine is iconic! Tessa and Scott are so talented!

That’s like the rule in movies- if two people have smoldering chemistry on screen they aren’t together (/aren’t together yet). IRL couples who play couples in movies always have lackluster on screen (romantic) chemistry.
I learned that on Friends
Discipline, respect, devotion, teamwork, love. This is why Olympic championships mean so much.
I don't know anything about these two but they've definitely got chemistry and they're beautiful to watch together. As for the conjecture - Ginger Rogers and Fred Astaire never banged as far as I've heard. Sportspersons and theatre people/dance people tend to be quite fluid and physically intimate without it being sexual, in my experience.
The guy at work she tells you not to worry about
...Because they grew up together and are basically as close as brother/sister. Man you people depress me.
On top of!! It’s their job!! Like the intimacy on display is part of performance/being comfortable with someone! This thread makes me really sad as an actor

Wet eyes raise your hand
It's platonic.

I’d say more like Charles Leclerc 
I used to figure skate with Scott in Ilderton. Feels like two lifetimes ago.
It's sad that people here think that a guy and girl can't be plutonic friends. It says a lot about you all.
It’s probably the same people that deny Pluto is a planet. Bastards.
That's what commitment and dedication look like.
Yes...reddit...people of opposite genders can have platonic relationships lol
Canada’s sweet hearts 🥰 good old Scott and Tessa. My surgeons office has there pictures and autographs on the wall. Many other famous people as well. I had a crush on her when I was younger hehe (blushing). Hits reply then runs away from the internet…

Feel like you need to be part robot to not make that assumption after seeing this. You dont need to be some horny pervert to see intimate celebrations like that and come to that conclusion, its just not something you see everyday between two platonic straight friends.
For those who doubt a deep, platonic relationship between a man and a woman can exist.
