Before Sophia Bush departed from Chicago P.D. and Taylor Kinney solidified his status as an icon on Chicago Fire, a quiet, blink-and-you-miss-it romance reportedly blossomed behind the scenes of the One Chicago universe. While never officially confirmed by either actor, persistent whispers and insider accounts suggest a brief but intriguing connection between the two stars.
Sources close to the production indicated that Bush and Kinney were “very close” during the 2014-2015 period. This timeframe is particularly noteworthy: Sophia Bush had recently ended a previous relationship, and Taylor Kinney was just beginning his high-profile romance with Lady Gaga. The reported fling between the two One Chicago leads was a fleeting one, lasting only a few months.
Following its conclusion, both actors maintained an “absolute silence” on the matter, and they have not been publicly seen together since.
One Chicago fans have affectionately dubbed this rumored relationship the “quiet whirlwind romance,” and despite the lack of official statements, it continues to spark fascinating speculation and discussion within the devoted fanbase. It’s a testament to the close-knit world of the One Chicago productions and the undeniable chemistry that can sometimes extend beyond the scripts.
