Grant Gustin and Candice Patton’s friendship started with their chemistry test for “The Flash.” According to a 2018 interview with Marie Claire, Patton tickled the “Glee” star. Turns out that tickling him was the right thing to do, as she would get to portray Gustin’s love interest on the show.
“There was something about when I was reading the sides that Iris and Barry had this close relationship, and it’s hard when you’ve never met an actor before,” Patton told Glamour in 2015. “In that moment, the only thing I could think of to make him smile or laugh was to physically grab him and tickle him. They loved it because they thought it was really charming.”
From then on, Gustin and Patton would form a close bond with each other that was more about companionship. Gustin told TV Insider that it can be awkward kissing Patton as they are “close in a way that’s more like a brother or sister” (via News24Viral). The two also tease each other, per BuzzFeed, as they have had a cute interaction on Twitter about Gustin’s kissing skills. But like most friendships, they go through some hardships.
