"Fifty Shades Darker" stars Dakota Johnson and Jamie Dornan's portrayal of Anastasia Steele and Christian Grey was so realistic that fans believe they have a real affair off-camera. Rumors did not die down despite the public denial of the pair of any relationship. In an interview, Dakota Johnson admitted that a deep friendship developed between them while filming three "Fifty Shades" movies.

The 27-year-old actress revealed that Dornan helped her in the effective portrayal of Anna's role as a passionate lover to a perverted billionaire. She said that the trust she had to her co-star helped her to get through with the difficult sex scenes.

For his part, Dornan did his best to help Johnson especially in the scenes where they appear naked. The actor made sure that she is properly covered after takes; he makes her feel at ease especially during takes so as not to keep repeating the scenes. Johnson revealed that she has to condition her mind for the scenes for almost seven hours.

Their chemistry on-screen is so amazing that it is hard for the audience to accept that they do not have a real relationship. Speculations of an on-going romance never stop as per Celebeat.

Amelia Warner, Dornan's wife is aware of the affair rumors but she is confident that her husband and Melanie Griffith's daughter are just friends. The "Siege of Jadotville" actor has criticized the tabloids that carry news of his adulterous relationship with Johnson. He was disgusted and said that nothing happens outside of the set. He even declared that he is done with the franchise and wants to move away from the Christian Grey image.

Korea Portal reported that the actress playing Grey's mother Marcia Gay Harden has revealed her approval in case a fourth story will be filmed. However, this still remains in limbo as Dornan has already put a period to his role.

The sequel "Fifty Shades Darker" received negative reviews but it was a box office winner. No wonder E.L. James, author of the novel where the films were based wants to continue the storyline. This will be made clear as soon as the third movie "Fifty Shades Freed" hits the theaters. Will Jamie Dornan reprise his role again as the lover of Dakota Johnson?
