During the 2000s, Mark Wahlberg and Fast & Furious star Jordana Brewster were in a discreet and intimate relationship. Brewster skillfully navigated their long-term romance, and strategically evaded public scrutiny by astutely knowing when and where to sidestep the prying eyes of the media.

Paul Walker Was Nervous About Making Out With Mark Wahlberg’s Girlfriend

While involved with Mark Wahlberg, Jordana Brewster experienced a significant breakthrough in her career as she secured a prominent role in the immensely popular Fast and Furious franchise. Sharing the screen with acclaimed stars such as Vin Diesel and Paul Walker, Brewster found herself in a pivotal position.

However, a challenge arose while filming the first movie, when Walker, playing an undercover cop, discovered the possibility of an unanticipated guest on set during his intimate scenes with Brewster.

“I had to do a love scene with Jordana [and] she was dating Mark Wahlberg at the time,” Walker once told TV Guide Online. “And there was a rumor that he wanted to be on the set the day Jordana and I locked lips.”

At that time, the cast and crew were fully aware of the circulating rumor, yet they made minimal efforts to alleviate Paul Walker’s apprehensions. However, luck was on Walker’s side as it transpired that the anticipated arrival of The Departed star was nothing more than a misleading rumor.

“I kept looking around to see if he was there. I admit I was a little nervous, but it was cool; Mark never appeared, and Jordana was a complete sweetheart. The only downside was hearing the crew snickering while we were trying to get it on,” he said.

Mark Wahlberg’s Girlfriend Had A Crush On Paul Walker

Throughout the series, Jordana Brewster and Walker undeniably exuded remarkable chemistry on-screen.

However, this magnetic connection did not extend to a romantic relationship off-screen. Nevertheless, during the initial stages of their collaboration, Walker openly confessed to harboring a crush on his co-star.

“I love Jordana; I mean, I had a crush on her. I’ll always have a crush on her,” Walker once told E-News. “She’s just such a good girl. Going back, we were little kids, you know? So I’ve always been really protective of her.”

Unbeknownst to many, Brewster harbored a concealed infatuation for Walker throughout their time together. “I had a crush on him more after, like… from 4 to 7 had a crush on him. I never got to tell him that, but I think on many levels he knew,” she once told E-News.
