Sometimes the best love stories start by accident. Anne Hathaway and Adam Shulman didn’t plan to meet at the Palm Springs Film Festival in April 2008—they just happened to cross paths through mutual friends. But what unfolded wasn’t some love-at-first-sight Hollywood fantasy that clicked into place overnight. Instead, it was something more real: instant chemistry paired with terrible timing that forced them both to wait before they could actually be together.

Hathaway has been refreshingly honest about this gap. She knew immediately, she’s said, that Shulman was the one. But knowing and acting on it are two different things. The timing simply wasn’t right. It wasn’t until November 2008 that they actually started dating—seven months after they first laid eyes on each other. That patience paid off. By November 2011, Shulman had proposed with a custom emerald-shaped diamond ring from his own jewelry line, James Banks Designs. The couple married in September 2012 at sunset in Big Sur, California, with designer Valentino Garavani creating Hathaway’s gown for the traditional Jewish ceremony.

What makes their relationship noteworthy isn’t just the longevity or the fairy-tale elements—it’s how grounded they’ve remained despite living in the spotlight. They’ve built a life together that includes two children: Jonathan, born in March 2016, and Jack, born in November 2019. They even collaborated professionally on the film Song One in 2014, which Hathaway called a genuinely rewarding experience. Shulman has been a quiet force in her life, and Hathaway has credited him with changing how she moves through the world. In an Elle interview from April 2017, she reflected on his impact:“He changed my ability to be in the world comfortably…His unique and specific love has changed me.”

Now, in June 2026, they’re expecting their third child together. On June 19, Hathaway announced the pregnancy via Instagram with a simple, joyful message:“x Baby, I’m yours x,”paired with the sounds of Barbara Lewis’song“Baby, I’m Yours.”It’s a fitting choice—a vintage soul track for a couple who’ve built something enduring and real. After nearly two decades together, they’re still growing their family. That’s not a fairytale plot twist. That’s just what happens when two people actually choose each other, again and again.
