‘The Bold and the Beautiful’: Adrienne Frantz Dated This Famous Musician

Former 'The Bold and the Beautiful' star Adrienne Frantz is used to romantic drama onscreen. Like her soap opera character, Frantz has experienced bad luck in the romance department. Her relationship with a famous singer in the early 2000s didn't end well.

Adrienne Frantz is best known to soap opera fans as Amber Moore on The Bold and the Beautiful. Frantz played the character for 16 years on the CBS serial, and its sister show The Young and the Restless. Amber had plenty of high-profile romances during her runs on both series. Like her character, Frantz also had her share of well-known suitors.

Adrienne Frantz dated Goo Goo Dolls singer Johnny Rzeznik

In 2000, Frantz was heating things up on The Bold and the Beautiful as her character’s romance with Rick Forrester (Jacob Young) became serious. Around that time, Frantz’s personal life also became exciting. Frantz began dating musician Johnny Rzeznik, frontman of The Goo Goo Dolls.

Rzeznik was 12 years older than Frantz, but they were head over heels in love despite their age difference. The couple made their red carpet debut at the 2000 Daytime Emmys. Their relationship was a big discussion in the soap opera community, and he won the approval of Frantz’s co-stars, including Susan Flannery. In a 2001 interview with People, Flannery talked about Rzeznik’s effect on Frantz. “He seems able to calm her and reassure her,” Flannery explained.

The couple split up in 2005

After five years together, Frantz and Rezeznik called it quits in 2005. Rumors swirled about the cause of the breakup. Some fans blamed the couple’s age difference, and others said it was because they wanted different things. Whatever the cause, it appears their split might not have been amicable.

In July 2013, when Rzeznik married Melina Gallo, Frantz threw shade at her famous ex. In a Twitter post, Frantz said she felt sorry for Gallo. From Frantz’s take, it seems Rzeznik might have been to blame for their split.

Adrienne Frantz is married to soap actor Scott Bailey

Frantz found happiness with her husband, former Guiding Light actor Scott Bailey. The two were introduced by their mutual friend, actor Shanelle Workman. Frantz and Bailey married in November 2011 with their family, friends, and Frantz’s The Bold and the Beautiful co-stars in attendance.
