If you’ve been following their relationship since season 1, you may be wondering: Are Sarah Shahi and Adam Demos still together from Sex/Life? Their relationship is even more romantic than Billie and Brad.
Shahi and Demos play love interests Billie Connelly and Brad Simon in Netflix’s Sex/Life. The series—which is based on BB Easton’s book 44 Chapters about 4 Men—follows Billie, a mother of two and housewife from an affluent suburban neighborhood in Connecticut who has an affair with her first love and ex-boyfriend, Brad, behind the back of her straight-laced husband, Cooper.
In a video on Sex/Life‘s Instagram in July 2021, Shahi revealed her first impression of Demos. “I remember meeting Adam in the trailer on the first day and, you know, he’s tall and charismatic and good-looking. And I remember being like, ‘Oh …OK,’” she said. “We did our first scene together and I heard how he said the words and I was like, ‘Oh, now I get why you’re Brad’ — like, he just owns that mysteriousness,” she added. “He owns the darkness but he’s also light at the same time, and I think it’s hard for an actor to be able to hold those two things simultaneously. And Adam does it effortlessly — he is effortlessly cool.”
Shahi and Demos also joked to E! News in February 2023 about how their family are prohibited from watching Sex/Life because of the series explicit sex scenes. “Watch with your eyes closed,” Sarah said, to which Adam added, “And not even.” He continued, “As soon as I got the job, I said, ‘It’s a show called Sex/Life, you’re never allowed to watch it, mother. They can see what they’re in for in the trailer. They’re proud nonetheless, even if they’re not allowed to watch it.”
But back to Shahi and Demos. So…are Sarah Shahi and Adam Demos still together from Sex/Life? Read on for what we know about if Sarah Shahi and Adam Demos are still together from Sex/Life and what their relationship is like now.

We had the exact same taste in music. We had the same taste in whiskey and tequilas and I was really blown away by him just as a person and all I knew was that I wanted more.” She continued, “And then I got an opportunity to act with him, and I will say, sitting across the other side of the camera with him was just a privilege.

Demos added, “Outside of how I feel about her personally, she’s such an incredible talent that I’m watching and I’m learning. To be able to work with someone of her caliber, I feel very lucky, fortunate. But then also, I love her so much. There’s a lot of layers to it.”

And so to be able to work, be employed on a really cool show, at the same time working together, it’s a dream come true.”
As for what they do together, Demos told People that he and Shahi like to keep their low-key with hikes with their dogs “We went on a cute little hike with the dogs yesterday,” he said. “Is that romantic?
