While Sarah Paulson and Holland Taylor first met at a party in 2005, it wasn't until almost a decade later that the two would reconnect over social media and start dating.

The Two and a Half Men actress first dropped hints of her romance with Paulson during a November 2015 appearance on WNYC's Death, Sex & Money podcast, where she shared that she was in her first "deeply committed relationship" and that it was with a woman who was much younger than her.

"It's the most wonderful, extraordinary thing that could have ever possibly happened in my life," Taylor said about her relationship at the time.

Although Taylor did not reveal her love interest's name, the couple officially confirmed their relationship the following month.

From first connecting on social media to supporting each other's careers, here is a complete timeline of Sarah Paulson and Holland Taylor's relationship.

Years later, the actresses crossed paths again and this time, they followed each other on Twitter and began messaging.

During a January 2019 appearance on Watch What Happens Live With Andy Cohen, Paulson reflected on how their relationship came to be.

"It's a long story. We met a very, very long time ago. I was with someone else; she was, too," she recalled. "We sort of breezed by one another, and then started following each other on Twitter, and then …"

Billy Eichner, who was also a guest that evening, asked, "Holland Taylor slid into your DMs?"

"She actually did," Paulson replied. "Yeah, it's pretty great."
