Lea Thompson and Dennis Quaid

Lea Thompson and Dennis Quaid’s love story began when they crossed paths on the set of “Jaws 3.” Their connection deepened to the point where Quaid proposed on Valentine’s Day in 1986. Before this engagement, Quaid had been married to actress P.J. Soles, and he would go on to marry actress Meg Ryan in 1991. Thompson and Quaid’s engagement lasted almost a year, but decided to call things off in 1987.

Just two years later, the “Back to the Future” actress found love again when she married film director Howard Deutch, whom she had met while working on his movie, “Some Kind of Wonderful.” This shift in her personal life led to a new chapter for Lea Thompson, highlighting the twists and turns that can define the romantic lives of Hollywood stars.
