\nOver the years we have fallen in love with some of the best characters on TV. From laughing along with their joy to shedding a tear or two during those oh-so emotional moments, sitcoms have given us some of the most memorable scenes to date. So it may be no surprise that we so quickly fall in love with the starring characters of the show. When it comes to the stars of Two and a Half Men, everyone brought something to the show to make it their own.
\nWhether it was the perfectly times comebacks or the loveable personality, the show would be nothing without the stars of the series. So just what happens when the cameras on the Two and a Half Men set stop rolling? Is Charlie Harper really the womanizer he is made out to be? Does Alan Harper ever find someone to love? Please tell us Herb Melnick is able to find someone to call his own?!<\/p>\n

Back in 2003, our screens were graced with a brand new Chuck Lorre creation. Two and a Half Men. The sitcom was like no other that had ever appeared on our screens as we got to watch brothers Charlie Harper (Charlie Sheen) and Alan Harper (Jon Cryer) raise Alan’s son Jake Harper (Angus T. Jones) together. Although the show focused on the three main characters, there were plenty of other personalities that became entwined in the storyline over the seasons. It wasn\u2019t just the drama on the show that kept us hooked all those years, either. No, the drama that came from outside the filming studios had us on the edge of our seats. With two of the leading cast members leaving the show, how would TAAHM go on without them?
\nThe series officially came to an end three years ago, but that doesn\u2019t mean these actors\u2019 lives have slowed down in Hollywood. Over the twelve years of the show’s run, we got to see various actors and actresses grace our screens. With so many relationships on the show, did the actors learn anything about how to – or how not to – date? Perhaps some of the stars hit it off on the set and have been happily married ever since? Maybe they watched the unwindings of the on-screen relationships and thought better than heading into the world of love? Sadly, Hollywood isn\u2019t always a place for fairy tales. Sometimes these stars get caught up in the whirlwind of the moment, and often these choices can have disastrous effects…
\n[post_page_title]Sarah Paulson and Holland Taylor (dating 2015 – present)[\/post_page_title]
\nDuring the show, Holland brought Evelyn Harper to life. Evelyn was the often self-centered and vain mother of Charlie and Alan. Although her TV character was often seen dating and marrying (or trying to marry) various wealthy men, in real-life Holland has settled down for the long run with Sarah Paulson. The couple publicly announced their relationship in 2015. The fellow actress shot to fame after landing roles in thriller series, American Horror Story. There may be a 30-year age gap between the two, but they aren’t letting anything hold them back. In fact, they have both spoken about how they are the best thing to happen to each other.

\nAfter Charlie Sheen\u2019s dramatic exit from the show, Ashton Kutcher took over as the leading role by playing adorable and heartbroken millionaire and tech genius Walden Schmidt. Shortly after Ashton joined the show, Mila Kunis made a guest appearance. Of course, it wasn’t the first time the pair had teamed up on-screen. The couple had already spent eight years working together on the sitcom, That \u201870s Show. Nearly two decades after first meeting, in 2015, the duo finally tied the knot. The two have gone on to become one of the most loved couples in Hollywood. Mila and Ashton are now also parents as they have both a daughter and a son.

\nJudith Harper-Melnick: Jake\u2019s mother and ex-wife to Alan. On the show, the character ran through a number of marriages that all ended in disaster. While Marin may have played the unlucky in love character, in reality, her life is quite the opposite. Marin met director Randall Sommer back at the beginning of the \u201890s, and the pair were dating for six years before finally walking down the aisle in 1998. To date, the couple appear as though they are stronger than ever.
\n

\n[post_page_title]Roger Fishman and Courtney Thorne-Smith (married 2007 – present)[\/post_page_title]
\nTAAHM has seen many women come and go as they date various members of the Harper family, with Lyndsey being no exception. Over the series, she was in an on\/off relationship with Alan until they finally call it quits. While Courtney struggled to find love on the show, in real-life she has been nothing but successful. The actress met Roger Fishman, the president of the social media video developing company, Zizo Group, and the pair said \u201cI do\u201d 2007. One year later the couple welcomed Jacob, their first son.

\n[post_page_title]Patricia McDonald and Ryan Stiles (married 1988 – present)[\/post_page_title]
\nRyan has been performing comedy since before comedy was a thing after he landed a spot on the improv series, Whose Line Is It, Anyway? It was his life in stand-up that meant that Ryan was in the right place at the right time. While performing at the Punchlines Comedy Club, there was one very special lady in the audience: Patricia. The waitress was working at the club when she locked eyes with the comedian, and the rest is history. The pair have since gone on to have three children together.

Back in 2012, the actress walked down the aisle with fellow actor, David Cross. David is best recognized as Tobias F\u00fcnke in the sitcom Arrested Development. However, it was the 20 year age gap that had everyone talking. Regardless of the gossip, the pair have gone on to settle into married life and even welcomed their first daughter in February 2017.

\n[post_page_title]Josh Groban and April Bowlby (2009 – 2010)[\/post_page_title]
\nOn TAAHM, April Bowlby guest starred as the ditzy Kandi for seventeen episodes. Chuck Lorre must\u2019ve enjoyed her acting style as the actress has recently made a guest appearance on his other sitcom, the Big Bang Theory. Even though April is used to being in the limelight, she tried to keep her private life just that. However, that didn\u2019t stop rumors from circling that April was dating singer Josh Groban for a year. Could the stories have been true?

\nThe co-creator of the sitcom couldn’t stay away from Emmanuelle when she was cast to play Mia for twelve episodes. For two years the pair were in a happy relationship until Emmanuelle discovered Chuck\u2019s hidden secret. He has been having an affair with another woman while the actress had been working away. The news was too much, and the pair ended up calling the relationship off. For Chuck, his career has only continued to grow as he has created hit sitcoms such as Mom, and The Big Bang Theory.

\nOn the show, D.B. played Lyndsey’s ex-fianc\u00e9 who went on to become a close friend with Alan. It wasn’t just TAAHM that saw the actor drop to one knee. No, in fact back in 2000 D.B. wed author Ashley Vachon. The writer is best known for her romance novels Billionaire\u2019s Romance and Pregnancy Romance. The pair quickly welcomed two children, Cade and Cody. Sadly for D.B. at the moment, it looks as though his children are more interested in sports that they are following in his acting footsteps.

\nThis actress has won the hearts of the nation for her varied acting roles.

It was her roles in the movies that saw Judy plan a particularly unique wedding day. She met TV producer Dean Johnson who just so happened to be a major fan of the films, too.

\n[post_page_title]Kurt Patino and Kelly Stables (married 2005 – present)[\/post_page_title]
\nOn the show, Melissa was the sweet ex-girlfriend and receptionist of Alan Harper. In real-life, it appears as though Kelly Stables is just as lovable. The actress walked down the aisle in 2005 with her producing and screenwriting boyfriend, Kurt Patino. Over the years, Kurt has written a number of his own short films, including Soul Fire Rising and Cup O\u2019 Joe, as well as running Patino Management Company, a talent agency in Burbank.

\nThis star appeared on TAAHM when she was cast to play Courtney Leopold, the con-artist who manages to manipulate Charlie. However, in 2014 there was no manipulation needed as Jenny walked down the aisle with Donnie Wahlberg. The name may sound familiar, and you\u2019d be right. Donnie is the older brother of Hollywood actor, Mark Wahlberg. Although he has since gone into acting himself, Donnie first made his claim to fame after helping to found the hit \u201880s boy band, New Kids on the Block.

\nBefore the days of ‘Milton’, there was another Hollywood power couple dominating the red carpet: ‘Ashmi’. Ashton and Demi walked down the aisle back in 2005, and they looked as though they were in for a smooth ride. Unfortunately, it wasn\u2019t to last. Everything came crashing down after eight years as Demi learned of Ashton\u2019s affair with 22-year-old Sara Leal. The divorce lasted over a year, and Sara reported how the romance ruined her life – it seems as though it wasn’t a good outcome for anyone involved.

\nIn the background, or the bushes, of the show was one of the leading characters: Rose. Even though she was Charlie\u2019s stalker, you couldn’t help but love her. Back in 2007, Melanie, who played Rose on the show, walked down the aisle with Jimmi Simpson. The actor is best known for his stints in the sitcom It\u2019s Always Sunny in Philadelphia, and the thriller shows House of Cards and Westworld.

\n
\n[post_page_title]Julia Stambler and Charlie Sheen (dating 2017 – present)[\/post_page_title]
\nEven though this star has been in the headlines for his many failed relationships over the years, it looks as though Charlie has finally found someone to settle down with. At 26 years old, model Julia Stambler is officially half of Charlie\u2019s age, but it doesn\u2019t look as though either of the pair are bothered. In fact, Julia has defended her boyfriend over the years as well as pushing friends away that have raised concerns about his illness.

As if that wasn\u2019t enough, Angus had even more shocking revelations in store for the world when he announced his new girlfriend: \u201cStalker Sarah\u201d. Sarah has become famous for her many photos with celebrities over the years, but no one expected this outcome after bumping into Angus.

\n
\n[post_page_title]Eric Michael Zee and Ming-Na Wen (married 2005 – present)[\/post_page_title]
\nOn TAAHM, Ming-Na played the character, Judge Linda Harris. As with many women on the show, Linda fell victim to Charlie\u2019s womanizing ways.

Back in the second season, Charlie tries to woo Alicia\u2019s character, Dr. Michelle Talmadge. However, his plan flops when Charlie hasn’t realized the pair used to date. In real-life Alicia had much more control over her love life as the actress has married producer, writer, and actor Anthony Michael Jones. The pair currently share three daughters together.
