===Comics===
The most popular het pairings in the comics for Jean Grey is Jean/Scott Summers and Jean/Logan Howlett aka Wolverine. A popular femslash pairing for Jean is for her to be with Emma Frost due to their animosity in the comics (generally because of each others romantic interest towards Scott) and Ororo Munroe due to their friendship. To a lesser extent, Jean is shipped with Charles Xavier, Warren Worthington III, Remy LeBeau, Laura Kinney, Hank McCoy, Jubilee, and Wanda Maximoff.
===X-Men: Evolution===
Jean was a popular character in the series. Despite this, Jean gained a lot of hate in this series, with many non-fans of Jean accusing her as a "Mary Sue" and "bitchy"In Defense of Jean Grey (X-Men: Evolution). Fuck Yeah, Controversial Characters!. 2015. (Accessed August 11, 2015) - thus in many fanworks is portrayed as such and was often bashed in fanfiction. 
Jean was mainly shipped with Scott, or Duncan (often as a past/side/background pairing). Jean was actually rarely shipped with Logan - probably due to the age difference. Femslash pairings of Jean/Rogue and Jean/Kitty also appeared.
===X-Men Movieverse===
Again Jean was mainly shipped with Scott and Logan, otherwise she is also shipped with Ororo and Rogue. Fix-it fics were popular after X-Men: The Last Stand due to the film's take on the Phoenix storyline, often changing it to the more fire-y version of the comics and less of a split personality.
With the release of X-Men Apocalypse, a younger Jean appears and while still shipped with the above (Scott and Logan in particular), fans also started shipping her with Scarlet Witch of Marvel Cinematic Universe, Charles Xavier, Magneto, Quicksilver, and Jubilee. XMA's version of Phoenix is often praised compared to the X3 version, which many disliked.
