Lauren Graham reveals the co star she has a ‘strange’ connection with

Lauren Graham has worked with her fair share of famous costars – but there is one with whom she has an undeniable connection.

The 57-year-old appeared on Alex Cooper’s Call Her Daddy podcast on Wednesday, where she was grilled about her on-set experiences on hit TV shows Gilmore Girls and Parenthood.

‘Is there anything that comes to mind – looking back at your time on that show – is there any memory or story or moment you can share with us that really sticks with you to this day?’ Cooper asked in the episode

Graham, who famously dated her Parenthood co-star Peter Krause from 2010 to 2022, revealed there is one person she developed a ‘weirdo connection’ with on set: Mae Whitman.

‘There is just a strange thing Mae Whitman and I have,’ the actress explained, describing their interactions as like they are ‘speaking some twin language.’

‘There were many, many scenes with her – almost to the degree that I was like this must stop we cannot continue,’ she reflected.

‘I’d have a tiny little maybe tear in my eye and she’d be like, “no, no, don’t do it, don’t do it,”‘ she laughed.

Graham added Whitman, 36, improvised a line one day which made her emotional.
