Hey, there! It sure does. I don't want to be too strict regarding level of relationship. If they did have an affair or even a month-long relation, it's fine by me as long as they released a song during this time. I added this now, thanks for the reccomendations :)

I'm not sure this one counts, because it's all based on a rumor. It's said that Vincent Thoma and Simona Pirone got married and live now in Canada, but I couldn't find any confirmations (they are not famous, they don't even have a page on wikipedia)
EDIT: just found an interview with Simona, where she states that she was already with Vincent at the time, and they won their auditions separately, Disney didn't know they had selected a couple in real life: https://www.terradigoblin.it/simona-pirone/

We do, but here I thought of collecting those that are not performed by bands - I mean, where partner A joins partner B for a duet, different from what happens in a band... But those were added anyway here, though... I guess should have been more specific when adding items.
