Behind-The-Scenes Facts From The 'Sonny & Cher' Show That Producers Tried To Keep Under Wraps

#3. Love At First Sight?

Many people believe that Sonny and Cher fell in love at first sight, but this was far from the case. On the contrary, Sonny first fell for Cher's best friend.

Sonny tried to make a pass at Cher's friend, but rumor has it that she wasn't into him. Some time later, events took a dramatic twist and Sonny began falling for Cher.

#2. Cher Was Kicked Out By Her Roommates

Cher, on the other hand, totally fell for Sonny from the very start. But while most couples choose to move in after falling in love, for Cher and Sonny it went the other way around.

Cher was living with some friends at the time, but her roommates kicked her out because she wasn't paying rent. Therefore, she moved in with Sonny. However, Sonny set some very questionable ground rules before letting her move in with him.

#1. The Beginning Of A Dysfunctional Relationship

Sonny let Cher move in with him, but under one condition: she had to be in charge of all the chores and housework. It sounds quite sexist to me!

Many people believe that this is when the dysfunctional dynamics of their relationship began to emerge and develop. It wasn't long before their bond evolved into something romantic.
