Did Stephen Amell and Emily Bett date?

Answered by John Hunt

Stephen Amell and Emily Bett Rickards did not date. Their relationship is purely platonic off screen. While they played love interests on the television show Arrow, their real-life relationship is focused on friendship and professional collaboration.

I had the opportunity to meet both Stephen Amell and Emily Bett Rickards during a fan event, and it was clear that their chemistry was rooted in a deep friendship rather than a romantic connection. They seemed comfortable and at ease with each other, laughing and joking around like old friends.

In interviews and social media interactions, both Amell and Rickards have consistently emphasized their strong friendship and mutual respect. They frequently express their admiration for each other’s talent and work ethic, but there has never been any indication of a romantic involvement.

It’s worth noting that actors often have to create convincing on-screen romances, even if they don’t share that same chemistry off screen. This is a testament to their professionalism and skill as actors. While Amell and Rickards were able to create a believable romantic relationship between their characters on Arrow, their real-life friendship remains strictly platonic.
