Antony was very tall, dark and handsome, while Cleopatra was very short, dark and skinny. Together, they must have looked like Tony Parker & Eva Longoria. Aside from a strong sexual chemistry, the duo shared a mortal enemy: Octavian, the future first emperor of Rome. Ambitious Antony felt that he should have been Caesar’s successor, not Octavian, while Cleopatra felt that her own child from Caesar (Caesarion) was the only possible legitimate heir. Though politics and power fueled their passionate affair, Antony ultimately fell in love with the queen and even married her in an Egyptian ceremony, his standing marriage to Octavian’s sister back in Rome be damned. This means that before meeting with a pretty brutal fate, Cleopatra, in Antony’s heart, had gone from Clandestine to Clan-destiny. Aaaaww! How sweet.
