Saw the TV movie Merry Ex-Mas (2014) which saw original Buffy Swanson being divorced to Dean Cain who had played Clark Kent/Superman in the Lois & Clark TV series hence the meaning of Ex in the title and with it centring at Christmas.
Merry Ex-Mas started with Kristy Swanson and Cain being married at the start before being divorced.
In fact this is not the first time they were married in a movie as they were previously married in another TV movie Operation Cupcake (2012) but the two movies are unrelated with them playing different characters.
When I saw Operation Cupcake I had wondered whether the casting of Dean Cain and Kristy Swanson as husband and wife may have been influenced by someone who had seen and remembered the Buffy season 3 episode Helpless in which Buffy (even though the TV series Buffy was played by Sarah Michelle Gellar and not Kristy Swanson) had lost her powers. This led to Xander to bring up Lois and Clark as he talked about the time that the Dean Cain Superman behaved rather oddly in the presence of red Kryptonite. This line of thought ended when Buffy told the gang to get back to reality.
