Jason became a singer, like Kylie, but eventually the couple were unable to spend much time together.
Eventually, they split but remained good friends.
The pair even reprised their Neighbours roles for what many thought would be the soap's final episode, before it was revived by Amazon.

Michael Hutchence - 1989 to 1991
After splitting with Jason, Kylie began dating Michael Hutchence of the Australian rock band INXS.
The pop icon has shut down accusations that there was a cross-over in her time with Jason and with Michael.
Her romance with the rock singer marked a departure from her "good girl" image, with Michael bragging that he was "corrupting Kylie".

She said: "To have someone like that open your eyes to many many things in a rock and roll way, in a poetic way, in a lovable, humorous, amazing way, obviously it was a great time.
"Even when it was slightly on the wild side, he was always very tender with me.
"I was a precious little thing to him so amongst the headiness, it was always very sweet."
Eventually, the couple split but remained close friends until Michael sadly passed away in 1997.

Stephane Sednaoui - 1996 to 1998
Kylie began dating French music video director and producer Stephane Sednaoui.
Stephane had directed some of the biggest and most surreal videos in pop, from Madonna's "Fever" to Bjork's "Big Time Sensuality".
The relationship coincided with a period in Kylie's career that the press dubbed her "indie phase", as she sought to take her music to new places.
Stephane went on to direct Kylie in the music video for Towa Tei's GBI (German Bold Italic), which she featured on.
Much of their relationship was kept out of the public eye and they eventually split in 1998.

James Gooding - 2000 to 2003
The pop icon started dating model James Gooding one year before her smash hit "Can't Get You Out of My Head" hit the airwaves.
The relationship soon felt apart and resulted in a bitter break-up.
James dubbed Kylie a "self-obsessed, virtually friendless control freak" and she described her former beau as being unable to "live without sniffing a line of cocaine or drinking heavily".

Olivier Martinez - 2003 to 2007
After her breakup with James, Kylie started dating French actor Olivier Martinez.
The actor had starred in a range of films by the time he met the pop star, including the nail biting thriller S.W.A.T and the erotic thriller Unfaithful.
The couple met at the 2003 Grammys where Kylie had presented the award for Best Pop Vocal Album with Justin Timberlake.
They stayed together for four years, during which Kylie was diagnosed with breast cancer in 2005.
Though they eventually broke up in 2007, they have been seen together as recently as 2017.
Andres Velencoso - 2008 to 2015

One of Kylie's longest running romances was with Spanish model Andres Velencoso.
They met while filming a perfume advert and quickly fell in love.
The couple were together for seven years, but eventually their busy schedules took them away from each other.
Later, Kylie talked about the break-up on an Australian radio station.
She said: "I was very sad.
"You come out the other side of that, being super busy and on the cusp of so many new things [it] helps to move on.
"It was an amicable separation, I still love Andres, he's the nicest guy, he's the coolest guy."
Joshua Sasse - 2015 to 2017

Kylie started dating actor Joshua Sasse in 2015 and they got engaged only a year later.
The Australian singer was 19 years older than her then-boyfriend, who she met on the set of the TV show Galavant.
The couple broke up only a year after they got engaged.
Kylie took to Instagram to break the news to fans.
She posted: "Thank you for all your love and support throughout this recent chapter of my life.
"Thank you now for your love and understanding with the news that Josh and I have decided to go our separate ways.
"We wish only the best for each other as we venture towards new horizons."
Paul Solomons - 2018 to 2023

The Padam Padam singer began dating Paul Solomons in 2018, one year on from her break up with Joshua.
She confirmed that she was dating GQ's creative director on her 50th birthday.
However, Kylie returned home to Australia in 2021 which made it hard to see her then-partner, since he lived in the UK.
Eventually, the couple grew apart and announced that they were splitting up.
