They once starred on The Jamie Foxx Show as love interests, but Garcelle Beauvais and Jamie Foxx were never able to take their on-screen romance to the real world. The longtime friends reunited on Beauvais's podcast Going to Bed with Garcelle and while catching up, Foxx admitted that he and his sitcom co-star should have been a real-life item. Jamie spoke about meeting Garcelle's boyfriends and how it always turned into an uncomfortable situation.

"By the way, you never really give any guy that I'm with any real attention," Garcelle Beauvais told Foxx. He jokingly replied, "Ever. I hate them all. I think me and you should have been together. So every time I see them, I'm like, 'Damn. I f*cked up.' So every dude, I give them a really sh*tty look."

Garcelle said that she could "feel it" when Jamie would come around the men she dated, and he added, "Listen, we are in a relationship forever." Real Housewives of Atlanta star Kandi Burruss previously asked Garcelle why she and Jamie just don't get together. "'Well, you know, we have a really great relationship now,'" Garcelle said she told Burruss. "'He's also hung like a horse. What would I do with all of that?!'" You can listen to the episode below.
