“Unhappily Ever After” helped put Kevin Connolly on the Hollywood map, but privately, the actor experienced his first major heartbreak following an ill-fated romance with one of his co-stars on the WB series.

On Monday’s episode of the “Hey Dude... The 90s Called!” podcast, Connolly opened up about his “pretty terrible” split from fellow actor Nikki Cox while the two were appearing on “Unhappily Ever After,” which ran from 1995 to 1999.
