Significant Lovers

This episode originally aired in 2022 on Patreon, and we're making it public for the first time. Enjoy! As New England Patriots fans, we know too well what it’s like to be broken up with by Tom Brady as he flaunts his new relationship so publicly. But imagine that heartbreak on top of being pregnant with his child! Actress Bridget Moynahan may have played the new, young girlfriend (Natasha) whom Mr. Big moved on with (Sex & The City), but in real life, she was Brady’s most notable girlfriend before he moved on with Gisele Bündchen. We look back at their relationship, the shocking pregnancy, and how the co-parents’ relationship has evolved through the years.About Significant LoversSignificant Lovers is a true-love podcast exploring couples throughout history and pop culture, hosted by cousins Kelly, Melissa, and Kaitlyn. Follow us on Instagram and TikTok @significantlovers, listen on YouTube, and contact us at [email protected].

What happens when two people who are very similar, and have the same weaknesses, fall in love? And all that’s holding them together is the love they share? Disaster. Though short-lived, the relationship between singer Frank Sinatra and actress Ava Gardner remains one of the most explosive —and enduring—unions in Hollywood history. From their scandalous affair while Sinatra was still married, through their whirlwind 1951 wedding and countless public quarrels, Frank and Ava were drawn together by passion as powerful as the forces that tore them apart. Even decades after their separation, friends said their bond never faded. And well into their golden years, Frank and Ava continued to regard the other as the great love of their life. So what went wrong? Find out in this whirlwind episode of Significant Lovers.*** This is a teaser for a bonus episode— the full episode is 1 hour 39 minutes long.

Everyone seems to know about Pocahontas and John Smith. It’s hard not too. Between the Disney film and the famous painting that hangs in the U.S. Capitol Rotunda, their love story has become a founding American legend. But what if we were to tell you that it it’s all a myth, that Pocahontas was never with John Smith at all? And that Pocahontas did marry an Englishman, but that his name was John Rolfe. Not Smith. In this episode of Significant Lovers, step four hundred years into the past to early America, and listen as we uncover the real story of Pocahontas and her second husband, John Rolfe. They were two star crossed lovers from warring nations, who spoke different languages, and believe different religions. How ever did they manage to fall in love? And was it happily ever after?
