The pair shut down any rumours of an off-screen romance during a joint interview for Access, with Page politely saying:
“I think everything you need to know is on camera. That’s why we presented it so beautifully for you. All the sparks that flew off of the beautiful scripts that we were handed, and so I think that the sparky scripted material are more than enough.”
