Office romance is a risky thing to indulge in, let alone being in a relationship with your boss’ daughter. That is what exactly happened between Hunter Hearst Helmsley aka Triple H and Stephanie McMahon.
The two individuals fell in love while they were involved in a “kayfabe” love angle after Triple H was feuding with the McMahon family. The relationship was hard because Vince McMahon was a tough nail to crack; however, the two lovebirds convinced Vince and are married to this date.

But the grass was not always green for Hunter and Stephanie because of all the backlash Triple H had to face just because he was dating the boss’ daughter.
Many critics would point out that the push ‘The King of Kings’ received in his career is because he got close to Vince McMahon and because he was married to a McMahon.

Ross added, “You can’t tell me the wedding vows made him a great worker, he made himself a great worker, but he’s not given enough credit for it because of the jealousy thing and the anti-McMahon backlash at times. He’s never given credit sometimes for his hard work and his dedication to the business.”
