Shepherd talks about how she had real life intimate moments with Willis that was similar to the romantic roles they played on Moonlighting.

We had a little romance. Not too much, just enough… He showed up like he wanted to [have sex] and then I said, ‘We shouldn’t.We worked so long together, it was probably better not to.

Shepherd says that she was more willing to consider the romance towards the end of series’ four-year run, but by then, Willis had met Demi Moore.
