The Hills’ Audrina Patridge admits ‘crush’ on co-star Brody Jenner & reveals details of their ‘fun, flirty relationship’
THE Hills star Audrina Patridge has admitted she’s had a longtime “crush” on her co-star, Brody Jenner.
The 37-year-old TV personality has revealed details on the “fun, flirty relationship” she and Brody have shared over the years.
Audrina and Brody have known each other for more than a decade and a half, but she’s insisting in her new memoir, Choices, that they’ve never cross the line from friendship into romance.
At least, she shared, they haven’t crossed that line yet.
In her , which released on Tuesday, Audrina opened up about how her friendship with Brody has deepened over the years – especially once their MTV show was revived recently.
The original show, The Hills, ran from 2006 to 2010, and while she was on it the whole time, he didn’t join until Season 2.

Audrina recalled of a favorite moment with Brody: “One of the most unexpected and beautiful friendships has been with Brody Jenner.
"And I remember on a group trip to Costa Rica we stayed up all night just the two of us.
“...We sat by the pool, talking about everything, from relationships to music, from what we’ve been through in our lives to creative ideas, from current events to the future.”
She went on of their friendship in her memoir: “We could sit for hours and never run out of things to say. Brody is so intelligent and we’re both so passionate about many of the same things.”

“We’ve always had a fun, flirty relationship,” the mother-of-one revealed, "but we never took our friendship to that place.”
The reality star explained that they were both always in other relationships – including right now, as while she’s single, he’s been dating surfer Tia Blanco for a few months – and have always “prioritized [their] friendship above any possible romantic feelings.”
Still, she admitted: “It’s only recently that we acknowledged that we both have had crushes on each other over the years.”
They both returned for The Hills: New Beginnings, which began in 2019 and lasted two seasons.
It was during the filming for this show, Audrina wrote, that the co-stars found themselves growing even closer to one another.
“We’ve spent a lot of time together, hanging out with our friends or listening to music, and sometimes just talking for hours, especially after a long day of filming,” she wrote.
After getting out of a turbulent marriage to her ex Corey Bohan, with whom she shares 6-year-old daughter Kirra, Audrina said it was nice being able to have Brody to “confide in.”
She went on: "We became so close that I came to trust him more than anyone else on the show. I knew he had my back, and vice versa.
“There was a lot of mutual respect and admiration . . . and maybe more.”
Along with that little tease of a possibly one day giving a romantic relationship with Brody a try, she added: “[We are] very much on the same wavelength about how to exist in a world with paparazzi while maintaining our privacy and security.
“So, if we ever did get together, I think we’d navigate that well together.”
They’re both focused on their own personal lives right now – her on her daughter, him on his girlfriend – but Audrina admitted in her book that there “definitely something between” them.
She revealed she’s definitely thought about the two of them getting together one day, since “he’s gorgeous and sweet and soulful,” but, right now, she’s focused on just having him as a great friend.
Wanting to clear up any lingering rumors, she dished that while they’ve “kissed before, a long time ago,” the “rumors that [they’ve] hooked up” exaggerated it all a bit.
Still, she shared: “You never know what will happen. As a wise man once said, ‘Truth and time tell all.’”
