[edit] Mark Hildreth

On July 12, 2005, the statement "As of 2004-2005, Kreuk isn't dating her Legend of Earthsea co-star, Canadian actor Mark Hildreth" was changed to "As of 2004, Kreuk is dating her Legend of Earthsea co-star, Canadian actor Mark Hildreth" by an anonymous editor. Some time later, this statement was removed.

Does anyone have evidence that Kristin Kreuk is dating or not dating Mark Hildreth?

(www.mark-hildreth.com is Mark's web site.) Myles22 22:56, 1 September 2005 (UTC)

I searched for a source but could not find one. If it is inserted into the article again without a reliable cited source then it should be removed. --PTSE 02:42, 13 November 2005 (UTC)


I have found a picture of Kristin Kreuk and Mark Hildreth in Corbis. They were at the premiere of Poseidon in Los Angeles. Check it out. Jenalexia 9 September 2006


[1]here is another proof that they are dating. Jenalexia 23 September 2006

[edit] External links to fan sites

I have removed fansites from the article as per WP:EL. More specifically:

"Fan sites: On articles about topics with many fansites, including a link to one major fansite is appropriate, marking the link as such. In extreme cases, a link to a web directory of fansites can replace this link."

This does not exclude the use of one major fansite link but I don't know which one in the list qualify as a major fansite. Obviously referenced fansites can be linked to. --PTSE 02:32, 13 November 2005 (UTC)

Here is proof they are dating http://www.kristin-kreuk-online.com/gallery/index.php?cat=19

[edit] Sex symbol?

Kristin Kreuk is considered a sex symbol. Why can't I add to it? (Oh behaVa 14:15, 15 November 2005 (UTC))

[edit] Height

It says on this page, and here at her IMDb page, that she is 5'4". But at celbrity heights here, she is listed as 5'1" - but also as 5'3" here. I would bet on 5'1" (so we could list her on List of famous short women - Matthew238 01:05, 21 December 2005 (UTC)

Agree. I don't think she's as tall as 5'4" though I think 5'1" would be too short. I'd say she's closest to 5'3"davidmj926 01:48, 8 October 2006 (UTC)

[edit] The Photo

Um, am I the only one who thinks that the photo currently accompanying the article is not a very flattering photo of Kristin? The bags under her eyes, her mouth, and way her eyes appear to be slightly crossed make it particularly odd-looking. Can we change it? Nightscream 03:51, 6 January 2006 (UTC)

No you're not the only one. The picture is terrible!
I agree, and as I have a lot of her pictures I tried to upload and replace, but found it difficult due to licensing.. x-bel

Okay, I replaced the pic with one that's a publicity shot from the show, use of which falls under Fair Use. Nightscream 12:45, 11 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Savan Devani

Along the same lines as Mark Hildreth, there is a line in the "Facts and Stats" division of the article that says that Kristin has been linked to Savan Devani, an investment banker in New York. I tried to find substantiating evidence to this claim by Googling it, but the only page with relevant information was this Wikipedia article!

Does anyone have conclusive evidence of this relationship? -- Gujuguy, 18:31, 28 January 2006 (UTC)

I've been bold and removed it because it is uncited, fails the Google test and had been removed in the past only to be added back by an IP user. --PTSE 02:09, 29 January 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Lana is not Superman's girlfriend!

I changed it since it says on the WB that she is the star-crossed love of Clark Kent. I referenced it as well.(204.168.120.178)


[edit] Inuit?

I had read in interviews with Kreuk that she was Inuit and not Asian. Where did the ethnicity information come from? --Chris Griswold 16:04, 5 May 2006 (UTC)

Kindly provide a link to the said interview where she clearly states that she's Inuit. With a Google search all information I get points to what's already stated here, that her mother's Indonesian Chinese (born in Indonesia) and named Deanna Che, and that her father's of Dutch ancestry and named Peter Kreuk. Edward Sandstig 00:34, 6 May 2006 (UTC)

[edit] My Space Page

There are at least two MySpace pages posing as KK. Are any of them legitimately her's?


Did u ever consider having a real realashniship with Tom Welling because if u don't u r crazy because he is sexy.

[edit] Star-crossed love?

I don't watch this series, and I don't know much about Superman, but this phrase... she stars as Clark Kent's star-crossed love in the intro... does this character really justify the Shakespeare quotation? Is she doomed by fate to love Clark Kent despite great tragedy to both parties? I'm not saying whether she is or isn't, just wonder if the phrase is applicable. - dharmabum 09:49, 30 June 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Syed Hassan

Somebody has placed an uncited line in the article saying that Kristin is currently single, but has been linked to "Syed Hassan, an emerging British motor racing star." I have done a Google search and found nothing to back up this statement, hence I have been bold and deleted it. Gujuguy 23:20, 4 July 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Her sister: Privacy issues

Does anyone have an interview where she actually says/the article states (not that it makes it true-one article claimed she was part Jamaican) that her sister's name is Justine? It is personal information that I dont think she actually discussed, so I think it should be deleted. She does in fact have a sister but she has never explicitly mentioned her name.

[edit] Pronunciation

Would someone who knows the correct pronunciation of her last name be willing to include that info in the article? I'd love to know. :) --Jay (Histrion) (talk • contribs) 17:52, 15 August 2006 (UTC)

According to a dutch friend of mine it would be IPA: [k[r]øːk]. I have no idea though if that is the way she actually pronounces it or if she has adopted the 'americanized' pronounciation. :) -- TexMurphy 08:34, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
Which would be... what? "Crook," rhymes with "book?" "Crook," rhymes with "spook?" "Crike?" "Croik?" or "Cree-uck?" --Jay (Histrion) (talk • contribs) 19:01, 16 August 2006 (UTC)
According to http://www.loc.gov/nls/other/sayhow.html it would be KROOK. I have updated the article with both variants.

I believe it's Kreuk as in Crook (Smallville DVD commentary)

[edit] Pregnant? Doesn't appear so.

I removed the following comment because it appears unsubstantiated. If it was announced Nov. 13 by now (Nov. 22) I should've been able to find at least one independent reference. It can always be put back if there is supporting material for it. Rob Banzai 00:47, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Has now revealed that she is pregnant with her first child. November 13 2006
