Between 1997 to 1998, Fawcett was in a relationship with James Orr, an acclaimed filmmaker from Canada. The actress initially met him during the production of the Disney film "Man of the House."

Fawcett and Orr kept their relationship away from the spotlight. However, in January 1998, their relationship became public when Orr was arrested for physically assaulting Fawcett outside of his home.

GREG LOTT

Fawcett dated football star Greg Lott while they were both attending the University of Texas. As reported by Daily Mail, Lott opened up about Fawcett in an interview.

"I first set eyes on her in the garden of the house she shared with a bunch of other girls and she just blew all the others away," he said. "She was the most stunning creature I'd ever seen."
