Roy Kent/Jamie Tartt (also known as Royjamie) is the most popular slash pairing in the Ted Lasso fandom. Canonically, their initial relationship on screen is antagonistic, before they slowly become cordial when Jamie returns to Richmond FC in season two. A friendship, of sorts, develops in season three, though elements of conflict still remain at a milder level than in season one.
