Lisa Rinna and Patrick Muldoon, 'Days of Our Lives'
- It certainly wasn't easy for Lisa Rinna and Patrick Muldoon when they were working together on 'Days of Our Lives' back in the '90s. Rinna played Billie Reed on the soap opera, while Muldoon played her on-screen brother, Austin Reed. Decades later, while being interviewed about her time on the show, Rinna revealed that she had an affair with Muldoon! Although she later corrected herself: "Well, not an affair, but a couple of one-night stands." If you're into watching re-runs of '90s soap operas, you'll never see this one the same way again.
