Connecticut native Lauren German is an actress best known for her role as Leslie Shay, a paramedic on the TV show Chicago Fire, as well as playing Chloe Decker in the comedy-drama series Lucifer.
German attended Orange County High School of The Performing Arts in Southern California, though at the time she only considered acting to be a hobby despite studying it.
The prospect of acting as a career didn’t become a thing for her until she went to USC and landed a cameo role in the 2001 romance Down To You, set at a college, along with being a regular on the third season of the series Undressed, which was also set in college.
Like any celeb, the 45-year-old has her own sizzling dating history. German was rumored to have dated acting peers Adam Brody and Ashton Holmes, but amid all the speculation, neither relationship was confirmed.
She was also linked with costar Tom Ellis from Lucifer, though they have been said to never have dated, despite their on-screen chemistry being a hot topic of the show. Ellis has been married to sweetheart Meaghan Oppenheimer since 2019.
Getting cozy with Adam Brody
In 2007, AceShowbiz reported that Lauren was seen cuddling up to Adam Brody which swiftly prompted rumors that they were dating. Brody is an actor whose breakout role was playing Seth Cohen on the Fox series the O.C.
That year, Lauren and Adam were spotted at Grove Villa in Beverly Hills after arriving together for a DJ battle that was sponsored by Reebok and Vitaminenergy.
“Adam spent the entire night with Lauren. He was caressing her back and refused to be photographed with her,” PageSix cited a source saying.
Friendship or fling with Ashton Holmes?
Lauren was also linked to actor Ashton Holmes, who is most recognized for his roles in the CW’s series Nikita, as well as in the ABC show Revenge.
While the pair seemed to be close to one another, their relationship may have very well been platonic, as neither of them ever confirmed or denied dating rumors.
Despite Lauren being linked to some of Hollywood’s hottest stars, the latest reports show that she is not currently married.
