Stacey Farber and Schitt's Creek co-creator Dan Levy have been best friends for a long time.

Farber made her mark in the industry by playing the titular character in the ground-breaking television series Degrassi: The Next Generation for several years.

As for her partner, Levy made history as the first individual to win Primetime Emmy Awards in each of the four major categories in the same year for his work on Schitt's Creek, which he produced, wrote, directed, and acted in.

During the mid-2000s, Farber played Ellie Nash in Degrassi, while Levy made his mark in the entertainment industry as an MTV VJ. 

A few years later, as their career progressed individually, the duo came together for a 2009 TV film, Degrassi Goes Hollywood. While Farber reprised her role as Ellie Nash, the actor portrayed Robbie in the movie.

It is uncertain whether they had already met before having the chance to collaborate on a project. But it is apparent their friendship has strengthened throughout these years. 

The actress even featured in a March 2018 episode of Schitt's Creek titled 'The Barbeque.' She played Patrick's ex-fiancé, seen as Levy's on-screen love interest.

The Schitt's Creek co-creator tweeted his delight in co-starring with his best friend after the episode aired. "I got to work with my best pal @StaceyFarber tonight! #Rach #SchittsCreek," he wrote.

Farber is equally proud of her best friend's accomplishments and has shown support to him throughout the years. In an Instagram post dated July 16, 2019, the Degrassi alum noted that Levy worked hard for the shows with his team of actors, writers, and other crew members. 

 "Hooray for awards shows that honor the imagination, determination, commitment, courage, and wholeheartedness of artists. @instadanjlevy works so damn," she continued.

The actress also composed a similarly sweet note for her best friend's special day. "Happy birthday to my Danny Jo!!! Long may he reign," Farber penned with food emojis.

Thanks to their undeniable friendship, the pair is often speculated to be dating. But Levy is openly gay and is understood to be single. And Farber has reportedly been in a relationship with Michael Seater for over a decade. 

Levy revealed in a 2022 Vanity Affair interview that he went on several dates before the pandemic while in London. But, the actor maintained his silence on how many partners he went on a date with. 

And when asked who was the greatest love of his life, Levy first said he hadn't met his ideal boyfriend. Then, he jokingly remarked that his pet dog, Redmond, was the epic love of his life.
