Meet the Real-Life Loves of the ‘Wednesday’ Cast

Jenna Ortega

Jenna Ortega, who stars in the show as Wednesday Addams, appears to be single and tries to keep her love life out of the public eye. In a 2023 interview with Elle, Ortega said that she is “obsessed with work” and happy being single.

“I hate being goo-goo gaga over a boy,” Ortega explained at the time. “Maybe I am too obsessed with my work, but the idea of relationships stresses me out. And also being that vulnerable with someone and having to get to know someone that well and having someone see you for all that you are … my brain knows that I don’t need to think about that right immediately.”

In August 2024, Ortega reiterated that she was keeping her romantic interests out of the spotlight and told Vanity Fair, “I don’t plan on speaking about my love life publicly, because that’s mine. When you know too much about someone’s personal life, then you series films and you can only see them — there’s nothing worse.”

However, in late 2024, Ortega briefly addressed her love life when she shut down unfounded rumors that she was dating Johnny Depp. At the time, she called the speculation “so insane” and denied ever meeting him.

Catherine Zeta-Jones and Michael Douglas

Catherine Zeta-Jones, who plays Morticia Addams, has been with her husband, fellow actor Michael Douglas, for over two decades. The couple met at the Deauville Film Festival in 1998, where Douglas was immediately captivated by Zeta-Jones.

After initially meeting, the actress wasn’t totally interested, but he still told her, “I’m going to be the father of your children.”

They began dating shortly after and married in 2000. The couple, who share the same Sept. 25 birthday, went on to welcome their first child together, son Dylan Douglas, on Aug. 8, 2000. Their second child, daughter Carys Zeta Douglas, joined the family on April 20, 2003.

Although the Oscar-winning actors briefly split in 2013, they reconnected the following year. Douglas reflected on the brief separation during a 2015 appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show.

“It can’t be a one-way street,” Douglas said at the time. “But I’m lit about her. And yeah, I think every couple has their difficult times. The only problem is, as you well know, we’re all in the public eye, and it tends to get a little more exposed than most. We’re back stronger than ever.”

Luis Guzmán and Angelita Galarza-Guzmán

Luis Guzmán, who plays Gomez Addams, has been married to Angelita Galarza-Guzmán since 1985.

Although Guzmán has been a public figure for years as an actor, he has kept much of his personal life private. The couple are parents to five children and live in Vermont, according to the Art of Fatherhood.

“All my children are adults and I am immediately making up for that lost time, you know, because I love my family. I love my kids. I know what they mean to me. I know what I mean to them. Being a dad is the most important job you ever want to have in your life,” he told Houston Public Media’s podcast I See U in May 2024.

Isaac Ordonez

Isaac Ordonez, who plays Pugsley Addams, appears to be single. He was born in April 2009 and is one of the youngest stars of Wednesday.

While Ordonez hasn’t spoken about any romantic relationships, he previously spoke with PEOPLE about his major growth spurt between the first two seasons.

“I was the same height as Jenna in season 1. I’ve grown quite a lot,” Ortega told PEOPLE in August 2025, while adding that his height difference over Ortega is “amazing.”

Meanwhile, Ordonez also discussed his close bond with his on-DSLR sister.

“Watching her through the monitor, like, you really start to pick up things,” he told PEOPLE. “She’s wonderful. She’s such a nice woman.”

Emma Myers

Emma Myers, who plays Enid Sinclair, is single and prioritizing her career.

“I’m not dating so much right at the minute because I’m really busy, but it’s ever-changing,” she told Seventeen in August 2025. “You don’t meet very many people besides people you work with, so it’s hard in that sense. And distance is always really hard if you’re away working. But when you find somebody who understands what you’re working on and what you’re doing, it doesn’t have a negative impact as much as you think it would. You just have to find the right person.”

Although she isn’t focused on dating at the moment, Myers is aware of what she does and doesn’t want in a partner and explained that a discount-breaker for her is when a man is “disrespectful to a mami.”

Meanwhile, she’s maintained close friendships with her Wednesday costars and told Seventeen of Ortega, “I love her so much. We have such a fun time together … You can confide in her. I instantly felt really close to her because she’s so cool, so open, and such a lovely person.”

Steve Buscemi and Karen Ho

Steve Buscemi, who plays Principal Barry Dort in season 2, is in a relationship with Karen Ho. The actor has not publicly spoken about his romance, but the two have attended several events together, including the Wednesday season 2 premiere in London on July 30.

The couple also stepped out for the Saturday Night Live 50th Anniversary Special in February 2025, the 2025 Tribeca Film Festival and a Netflix Big Mouth event in May 2025.

Prior to his relationship with Ho, Buscemi was married to filmmaker Jo Andres from 1987 until her death on Jan. 6, 2019. The actor has one son, Lucian (born in 1990), with his late wife.

Joanna Lumley and Stephen Barlow

Joanna Lumley, who joins the cast as Grandmama Hester Frump in season 2, has been married to Stephen Barlow since 1986. The British actress and the British conductor live in London and talk about their “shared love of track” on their podcast, Joanna Lumley & The Maestro.

In a 2024 interview with Radio Times, Lumley jokingly shared that the secret to her long-lasting marriage is to “not get divorced!”

“I think, respect your partner and always treat them as the most important person in the world,” she continued, while later adding, “I’ve become fonder of car racing because he likes that. We series television, but we also read a lot and he’s a musician, so we listen to a lot of track. We’re not ruled by the box.”

Prior to her marriage to Barlow, Lumley welcomed a son named Jamie with her then-boyfriend, photographer Michael Claydon.

Fred Armisen and Riki Lindhome

Fred Armisen, who plays Uncle Fester, banger it off with Riki Lindhome while they were both working on season 1 of Wednesday. Lindhome, who played Dr. Valerie Kinbott, had known Armisen for years and began to catch feelings while they were filming in Romania in 2020.

“I could tell I was having feelings, but then I was like, ‘Well, I can’t say anything because I’m about to have a baby,’ ” Lindhome told PEOPLE in 2024.

When she started dating Armisen in early 2022, Lindhome was welcoming her first child, a son named Keaton, via surrogacy.

She was open with him about her newest addition and gave him the opportunity to back out if it was too much, but Armisen stepped up and invited Lindhome and her son to move in with him. In June 2022, they married — purposely on a Wednesday — in a short and intimate ceremony at a courthouse.

“We were friends for so long that it just happened quick. We had one dinner and then it was like, ‘Oh, yeah, let’s see where this goes.’ It was surprising. I would say it was more of a shock to him. He did not see it coming at all,” she told PEOPLE.

Christopher Lloyd and Lisa Loiacono

Christopher Lloyd, who plays Professor Orloff in season 2, has been married to his wife, Lisa Loiacono, since 2016. The Back to the Future actor and the former real estate agent began dating shortly after meeting while she was selling his Los Angeles home in 2012.

Four years after meeting, Lloyd and Loiacono tied the knot on Nov. 23, 2016. Although the couple keep most of their private lives out of the public eye, they frequently attend events together and Lloyd features Loiacono on his Instagram.

“Love is the answer. Happy Valentine’s Day to mine❤️,” he captioned a photo of them kissing on Valentine’s Day 2025.

Thandiwe Newton

Thandiwe Newton, who plays Dr. Rachael Fairburn in season 2, appears to be single. The Beloved actress was previously married to Ol Parker in 1998, but they separated in 2022 after 24 years of marriage.

The former couple share three children together: daughters Ripley (born in December 2000) and Nico (born in December 2004) and son Booker Jombe (born in March 2014).

Shortly after separating, Newton was seen kissing and getting dinner with musician Lonr in early 2022.

Although Newton and Parker are separated, they came together to celebrate Nico as she was appointed the global ambassador for Lancôme in September 2024.

Heather Matarazzo and Heather Turman

Heather Matarazzo, who plays Judi, has been with her partner, Heather Turman, ever since they met on the set of Turman’s Indie film Stuck in 2016. The Princess Diaries star and the screenwriter, who married in 2018, have gone on to work on other projects together, including the 2024 short horror film, The Green Ribbon.

Although they both work in the television and film industry, they later packed up and moved to Turman’s native state of Michigan.

“We kind of looked at each other and we were like, ‘Do we wanna be in Los Angeles anymore?’ And the answer was a big fat no,” she said in a TikTok in 2024. “I’ve only ever lived in New York or L.A., so this was quite an experience for me and continues to be.”

Matarazzo said that she and her wife enjoy gardening, checking out local art fairs and spending time with their animals. She added, “I feel very grateful to have landed in Michigan. Very, very grateful indeed.”
