Rutger published: Tommy Dorfman Discusses Past Romance with Co-Star Brandon Flynn

Tommy Dorfman opens up in new memoir

Tommy Dorfman, best known from "13 Reasons Why," has peeled back layers in her life with her new memoir, "Maybe This Will Save Me." She doesn't hold back in sharing personal stories, including a surprising romance with her co-star from 13 Reasons Why, Brandon Flynn.

Sparks flew on set

Remember when "13 Reasons Why" was all anyone could talk about between 2017 and 2020? Well, it turns out there was more happening behind-the-scenes than we realized. Tommy Dorfman and Brandon Flynn, who played Ryan Shaver and Justin Foley, had some real-life chemistry. Dorfman describes a moment at a cast party that changed everything. Imagine this: you're stepping out at a party, having a smoke, and there stands Brandon Flynn. Tommy recalls, "His charm was undeniable, his confidence was magnetic, and those blue eyes just sparkled." It was an electrifying moment that led them from starlight glances on a patio, straight through a whirlwind evening that neither would forget.

The chapter closes

Though this romance was short-lived and kept under wraps until now, it made a significant impact on Dorfman. She admits feeling "unexpected jealousy" when Flynn started dating another co-star, Miles Heizer. "When I saw Miles and Brandon together, it stirred something in me," Dorfman shares. "I felt a twinge—okay, more than a twinge—of jealousy. But I knew we had our moment, and it was simply that." Despite these feelings, she focused on her work, knowing she couldn't let personal drama overshadow her career. Meanwhile, Flynn's public love life, especially with Sam Smith, kept making headlines.

Big changes on a personal front

Dorfman's memoir doesn't just look back but also addresses major changes in her current life. After nearly two years, she's filed divorce papers from Elise Williams, a step confirmed on May 16 after hints from a cryptic Instagram post in late 2022. For Dorfman, this marks a new beginning. While she's known beyond "13 Reasons Why" with roles in "Love, Victor" and "Romeo + Juliet," this memoir reflects on her journey through life changes, both big and small.
