What Connie Britton And Kyle Chandler's Relationship Is Like In Real Life

Posted by Sebrina Pilcher on Wednesday, May 8, 2024

Connie Britton discovered that Kyle Chandler is quite the chatterbox. "My nickname for him is 'Didjaknow.' He would start all these conversations with 'Did you know?' and proceed to tell you some little piece of trivia about ancient Mesopotamia that you could care less about. And it goes on for hours!" she told TV Guide. Despite this, she and Chandler took walkie-talkies with them on their road trip so they could communicate from their separate cars.

It was their crazy-good chemistry when the cameras weren't rolling that made Peter Berg fear that Britton and Chandler's road trip was a terrible mistake. "I was convinced they would be having some torrid affair by the time they reached Santa Fe and Kyle's marriage would be over by the time they got to Austin," Berg said during a 2011 Grantland roundtable. But instead, Britton and Chandler just strengthened their blossoming friendship, which involved a lot of playful banter and good-natured ribbing. According to Britton, she and Chandler's wife, Kathryn, also bonded by gossiping about him. "I knew this relationship was going to work because when Connie came over to the house, she and my wife would start giggling and laughing," Chandler told TV Guide.

Chandler and Britton also wanted their on-screen bond to be Texas tough. On "EW's Binge" podcast, Britton said they agreed that they would refuse to film any episodes about Eric and Tami Taylor's relationship being tested by infidelity.
