The hit series *1923* may have wrapped up, but fans are still obsessed with its unforgettable characters and dramatic storylines. While the show’s romantic twists—especially the tragic fate of Alexandra and Spencer—left viewers reeling, the cast’s real-life love stories are even more surprising and heartwarming.

Let’s start with Hollywood legend Harrison Ford, who plays Jacob Dutton. Ford has been happily married to actress Calista Flockhart since 2010. Their relationship first made headlines because of their 22-year age difference, but Calista quickly dismissed any concerns, saying it never mattered to them.

Ford, who had already been married twice and had four children, later adopted Calista’s son, Liam. Together, they’ve built a loving, blended family, proving that love can find you at any stage in life.

Helen Mirren, who brings Cara Dutton to life, has also enjoyed a long-lasting romance. She’s been with director Taylor Hackford since the 1980s, and after 11 years of dating, they married in 1997.

Mirren once joked that marriage wasn’t really her “taste,” comparing it to turnips, but she just needed to meet the right “turnip.” Despite personal tragedies, including the loss of Hackford’s son Rio, their bond has only grown stronger over the decades.

Next up is Brandon Sklenar, who plays Spencer Dutton. Unlike his on-screen persona, Brandon keeps his private life under wraps. However, it’s known that he’s been dating Courtney Salviolo since at least 2022.

The couple keeps a low profile, but Courtney was by Brandon’s side at the *1923* Season 2 premiere in February 2025. Their subtle public displays of affection prove they’re happy together—even if fans secretly hoped Brandon was dating his on-screen love interest, Julia Schlaepfer (Alexandra). Despite their undeniable chemistry, Brandon and Julia are just good friends in real life, and both have spoken about their natural connection on set.

Darren Mann, who played Jack Dutton, found love early. He’s been married to Jesse Mann since 2021, and they tied the knot in Puerto Rico. To celebrate their third anniversary in December 2024, Jesse posted a sweet message, saying, “Life with you still feels like a honeymoon.” Darren replied with a loving “Love you always Xoxo,” proving their romance is still going strong.

Sebastian Roché, who portrayed the villainous Father Renaud, has been married to actress Alicia Hannah-Kim since 2014. Their busy filming schedules—him on *1923*, her on *Cobra Kai*—meant they barely saw each other in 2024 and even forgot their 10th anniversary.

Alicia joked they were “FaceTime married,” showing that humor and resilience keep their relationship thriving despite long-distance challenges.

Finally, Jennifer Carpenter, who recently joined *1923* as Mabel, has been married to musician Seth Avett of The Avett Brothers for nearly a decade. They wed in North Carolina and share a son named Isaac. Before Seth, Jennifer was famously married to her *Dexter* co-star Michael C. Hall.

While the on-screen drama of *1923* keeps us hooked, the cast’s real-life relationships are filled with enduring love, resilience, and a few surprises. Their stories prove that, sometimes, real life is even more captivating than fiction.
