Joshua Jackson and Katie Holmes dated IRL and it's sweet to learn that sparks flew when cameras weren't filming this sometimes melodramatic teen show. Joshua Jackson has a lot of famous ex-girlfriends, and one of them is Brittany Daniel, known for Sweet Valley High. Why did Joshua Jackson and Brittany Daniel break up? Let's take a look.

Joshua Jackson And Brittany Daniel's Relationship

We love hearing about Joshua Jackson's marriage to Jodie Turner-Smith and it's also interesting looking back at the popular actor's romantic history.

We hear about so many actors who start hanging out about acting together in a film or starring on the same TV show and that's what happened with Joshua Jackson and Brittany Daniel.

The couple met because of Dawson's Creek, according to Zimbio.com.

The actress played the character of Eve Whitman, who was definitely a fascinating part of the show, if not a very well-liked character. In season 3, Dawson Leery and Eve met each other, and he was interested since she was the new girl in town and he was drawn to her. A major reveal took place when fans learned that Eve and Jen Lindley were half-sisters, making Jen's already sad and complicated family life even worse.

It's during the season 3 Dawson's Creek Thanksgiving episode that Dawson can tell that Eve and Jen are related. Their mom Helen visits and explains to Jen that she did have another baby. Jen is naturally devastated to learn about this family secret and although she didn't think that she could dislike her parents more, she finds herself more disappointed with her mom and dad then ever before. Eve was only in a few episodes but made a huge splash.

People don't seem to know why Joshua Jackson and Brittany Daniel broke up. People think that they dated for a year, and Us Weekly reported that Joshua also dated actresses Rosario Dawson and Julia Stiles.

Joshua Jackson is now 43 years old and Brittany Daniel is 45, so when they dated during their time on Dawson's Creek, they would have been very young. It's possible and likely that's why their relationship didn't last.

Dawson's Creek fans don't love the character of Eve. In a Reddit thread, one fan wrote "I hated her character. I just kept thinking AHHH "Jessica Wakefield" from Sweet Valley High... The storyline of her showing up randomly at the high school but not a student, getting the PSAT answers, etc, it like didn't really make much sense."

Another fan wrote, "I think Eve’s only purpose was to be a “temptress” so that there was an excuse for Dawson to fall away from Joey."

Brittany Daniel's Life After 'Sweet Valley High'

Brittany Daniel has been through a lot since she finished starring in Sweet Valley High. The TV adaptation of the Sweet Valley High book series aired from 1994 to 1997, and Brittany Daniel played Jessica Wakefield. Her real-life twin Cynthia Daniel played Elizabeth Wakefield. As fans of the books remember, the twins have totally opposite personalities. Jessica loves to have fun and Elizabeth is more cautious and studious.

Brittany Daniel played Penny in one episode of That 70's Show and played Sophia in the 2002 show That 80's Show. Other notable roles include Carmen on It's Always Sunny In Philidelphia and Blair on Black-ish.

Brittany Daniel was diagnosed with cancer and according to People, she got her diagnosis of stage IV non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma in 2011. She explained to the publication in 2014 that this was a really tough time for her: "It happened so suddenly,” she said. “There is is no way I would have ever gotten through this without my family. My family is everything to me and I feel like they saw me through this.”

In July 2017, Brittany married Adam Touni in Los Angeles and the couple recently had their first child. Brittany shared with her Instagram followers that they named their baby girl Hope Rose.
