Michael C. Hall and Jennifer Carpenter, who play half-siblings on Showtime’s ‘Dexter,’ knew they were taking a risk when their off-screen relationship a few years ago started developing into a romance.
‘We were just friends, and it was very easy to be friends,’ Carpenter said. ‘We were both surprised when this other thing happened. We did a lot of talking about it -- can we kiss, what will that mean, will we damge the credibility of our characters? We were very practical.’
She smiled: ‘But in the end, the heart wanted what the heart wanted.’
