Bill Hader, Anna Kendrick reportedly dating, plus more celeb love news
]
— On Jan. 15, Deux Moi broke the news that, according to an anonymous source, “Bill Hader is dating Anna Kendrick.” The insider added that the “Saturday Night Live” alum and the “Pitch Perfect” actress have been an item “for the last couple of months.” Two days later, Deux Moi reported that, according to a second source, “They were filming a movie this past spring [and] summer, and they were dating back then.” (It’s unclear what project the pair — who previously portrayed siblings in the 2019 Disney Christmas movie “Noelle” — would’ve been shooting around that time.) On Jan. 20, however, People magazine reported that they’ve actually been a couple for much longer than that: “Anna has been dating Bill quietly for over a year,” said a source. “They met years ago. She’s hosted ‘Saturday Night Live’ and they’ve done a movie together, but they got together well after the movie. … They are both very private people, and with the pandemic it was easy to keep it quiet. They’re both hysterical so they must keep each other laughing all of the time. She’s really, really happy.” An Us Weekly source added that Bill and Anna are so serious, she’s “already bonded” with the three daughters he shares with his ex-wife, director-screenwriter Maggie Carey. “They’re really into each other and make each other laugh — a lot,” said the Us Weekly source. “They’re keeping their relationship private, but friends close to them know.” RELATED: The weirdest celeb hookups of 2021
— The rumor mill went into overdrive after The Sun reported on Jan. 16 that Taylor Swift and her boyfriend of several years, Joe Alwyn, recently jetted off to St. Ives — a seaside town in Cornwall, England — for a romantic getaway. One alleged insider told the British tabloid that the vacation could be an indication that the couple either got engaged or are nearing an engagement: “To go that far just for a few days clearly meant a lot to them,” said the source. “It feels like things are getting more serious and people think an engagement could be on the cards. That could explain such a long journey to a specific place. Taylor is keeping her cards close to her chest, but they’re certainly very happy and enjoying their time together. Lockdown made things even more serious and they’ve lived together throughout.” If the duo — who’ve sparked several rounds of engagement and marriage rumors in recent years — are planning to tie the knot (or already did!), it’s unlikely the public will hear about it anytime soon.

— Christina Haack and her fiancé, Josh Hall, sparked rumors that they’d secretly tied the knot when they stepped out in Cabo San Lucas, Mexico, on Jan. 15. The duo were snapped packing on the PDA at the beach as the “Flip or Flop” star sported what appeared to be a wedding band alongside her massive engagement ring. Her beau, meanwhile, rocked some eyebrow-raising new body art: an infinity symbol on his ring finger. (See photos here.) If the duo did quietly exchange vows, it would be in keeping with the breakneck pace of their romance thus far: They got engaged in the summer of 2021 following a courtship of just a few months. On Jan. 17, Josh further fueled the secret-wedding talk by captioning a PDA-packed snap with the blonde beauty, “True love is rare, so go for it. Fear controls you, so face it. Time is precious, so indulge it. Life begins at the end of your comfort zone. Never settle for less than you deserve. We only get one life, so don’t waste a moment of it.” Christina was previously married to Tarek El Moussa for nearly a decade and then to Ant Anstead for less than two years. Speaking of Ant…
— During a Jan. 18 interview with Us Weekly, Ant Anstead said that he and his girlfriend, Renee Zellweger, are “absolutely not” thinking about marriage at this point in their relationship. “What’s the rush?” he asked. Late last year, there were reports that the former “Wheeler Dealers” host and the Oscar-winning actress — who were first linked in June 2021 — were focused on hitting another milestone in their relationship: living together!
— E! News reported on Jan. 11 that, according to a source, Ashley Benson and G-Eazy “have been spending a lot of time together and are casually dating again.” The duo called it quits in early 2021 following nearly a year of coupledom, but they’ve been seen together in public several times since Christmas, raising questions about the current status of their relationship. “They had a difficult breakup but reconciled and love being together. They have a lot in common and are taking it slow,” said the E! source. They reportedly reconnected after the rapper’s mother died in November. “[He’s] still mourning his loss and isn’t focused on their status at the moment,” added the insider, noting that the “Pretty Little Liars” alum has “been there for him” as he grieves.
— On the Jan. 16 episode of her “Whine Down” podcast, Jana Kramer opened up about how she met her new boyfriend, Ian Schinelli. Professional football player Andrew East — who’s married to Jana’s pal Shawn Johnson East — introduced them at a birthday party for the Easts’ daughter in October. (Ian and Andrew work out together.) “Andrew came over to me and was like, ‘Hey, there’s a guy here I want you to meet,’ and I’m like, ‘We’re at a 2-year-old kid’s party, what are you doing, please don’t try to set me up right now,’ and he’s like, ‘Seriously, he’s a really good dude, a Navy SEAL, he’s the guy in the orange shirt,’” she recalled. “I was like, ‘Shut up! I’ve been staring at him like this entire time!’” The rest is history!
— On Jan. 17 — two days before her 40th birthday — Jodie Sweetin took to Instagram to announce that she and her boyfriend of about four years, Mescal Wasilewski, are engaged. “I love you Mescal, for always. You’re my person. I can’t wait to see the life that lies ahead for us. Here’s to us, @ghostfacelito and our life of adventures. Together. I think I’m really gonna like turning 40,” she captioned a selfie showing off her unique engagement bling. It’ll be the “Full House” star’s fourth marriage.
— During an interview with Marie Claire that debuted online on Jan. 18, Jenny Slate revealed that she quietly married Ben Shattuck in the living room at their home in Massachusetts on New Year’s Eve. “We were planning on a [wedding] that ended up being almost 200 people, and then now, it’s just our parents and siblings,” she said. “We each invited six friends… I actually like it. I like it better. I didn’t realize how the large thing was making me feel uncomfortable, a little bit. Just a little.” The duo announced their engagement in the summer of 2019 and welcomed a daughter in late 2020 or early 2021.
— For weeks now, there have been whispers online that Hunter Schafer and Dominic Fike are quietly dating. On Jan. 16, the “Euphoria” co-stars were snapped holdings hands (with their fingers entwined!) at a restaurant in West Hollywood, seemingly confirming suspicions they’re more than friends.
— On Jan. 20, “Downton Abbey” actress Michelle Dockery and Jasper Waller-Bridge — the little brother of actress and “Fleabag” and “Killing Eve” writer-producer Phoebe Waller-Bridge — publicly announced via London’s The Times newspaper that they’re engaged. “The engagement is announced between Jasper, son of Michael Waller-Bridge of King’s Lynn, Norfolk, and Teresa Waller-Bridge of Battersea, London, and Michelle, younger daughter of Michael and Lorraine Dockery of Gidea Park, Essex,” the traditional submission to the newspaper’s births, marriages and deaths column read. Michelle and Jasper, who’s worked in music management and is now a TV and film producer, have been dating since 2019. She was previously engaged to publicist John Dineen, who died in 2015 following a battle with cancer.
— On Jan. 13, Vogue broke the news that “Orange Is the New Black” alum Danielle Brooks recently married her partner of several years, Dennis Gelin, at the Alfred DuPont Building in Miami. (It’s unclear if they exchanged vows in late 2021 or in early 2022.) The Tony-nominated actress revealed on New Year’s Eve in 2019 — a little more than a month after they welcomed their daughter, Freeya — that they were engaged.
— On Jan. 18 — after weeks of rumors that he and Megan Thee Stallion had quietly parted ways — Pardison Fontaine took to his Instagram Story to make it clear they’re still going strong: “Been seeing the breakup rumors and was letting [your] imaginations run, but y’all getting too crazy. Ain’t give [anyone] a story, so they made one. We really been on it double time,” he wrote, adding a padlock emoji to indicate that he and his girlfriend of a year are keeping things on lock. Megan, meanwhile, has yet to address the split speculation.
On the Jan. 13 episode of the “BFFs With Dave Portnoy and Josh Richards” podcast, Zack Bia shot down recent rumors that he and Madelyn Cline are an item: “We are not dating,” he said, though he acknowledged that he and the “Outer Banks” actress “hang out all the time.” Explained the DJ-influencer, “I think, as someone like herself who is extremely busy and is going to start traveling — she’s on set five months out of the year — she has such a busy schedule and I think I have such a busy schedule. It is one of those things where we really enjoy hanging out and enjoy going to dinner. But we never officially started dating and probably will never officially stop because we are just hanging out. We are enjoying it and not even thinking about what it is.”
— What a difference a week makes! On the Jan. 17 episode of “Watch What Happens Live,” Carl Radke said that he and “Summer House” co-star Lindsay Hubbard are now officially a couple. “We’re girlfriend-boyfriend,” he said. (The publicist insisted just last week that they’d yet to label their relationship.) “I’ve really enjoyed where we are right now. We’re having a lot of fun. … We’re really happy. She’s my best friend, she’s got my back, and we respect each other, which I think is huge for a relationship,” he gushed, adding that things between them started turning romantic after they attended Kyle Cooke and Amanda Batula’s September 2021 nuptials. “There were some feels, and I was looking at her differently. I was holding back a little bit just because I was scared, and it’s a scary thing pursuing your best friend,” he said.
— On Jan. 17, Bachelor Nation’s Derek Peth and model Saffron Vadher took to Instagram to announce that they secretly tied the knot more than a year ago. “Mr. & Mrs. Peth!!! 14/01/2021,” they captioned a joint post. “I love our life together,” the reality star added in the comments section, prompting his missus to respond, “I love u moreeee.” They got engaged in late 2020 — less than a year after they were first publicly linked.
— In other Bachelor Nation wedding news… Bachelor Nation’s Jordan Kimball married Christina Creedon at The Wynden in Houston, Texas, on Jan. 15. “It feels like it happened so fast,” the groom told Us Weekly following his nuptials. “I was blindsided by this love. She’s just the sweetest person. … I can’t handle how sweet, genuine and how true her heart is. I feel like I’m a protector. I’m here to support her. We always share different kind of perspectives, but coming from ‘The Bachelor’ to this, I would say that ‘The Bachelor’ kind of prepared me in a way that I was ready to take [marriage] seriously. … You can grow from anything. And I think that that’s what I’ve done, grown from it.” Jordan also shared a slideshow of wedding photos on Instagram along with the caption, “My Dear Christina, you are the blessing I’ve always prayed for, cheers to forever loving you! I love our unconditional and comforting love. I truly feel you were sent into my life from above, I promise you all of my affection for all of my years. I love you Mrs. Kimball, always.” The duo got engaged on Christmas Eve in 2020.
— Following a decade of coupledom and two engagements, “Family Karma” stars Vishal Parvani and Richa Sadana finally tied the knot at the TRS Coral Hotel in Cancun, Mexico, on Jan. 15. They took to Instagram to jointly share a slideshow of wedding photos along with the caption, “Husband and Wife. Love you for always. 1.15.2022. Thank you to all our friends and family, for all the love and support these past 10 years. We did it!”
— On Jan. 19, People magazine broke the news that Adam Rippon and Jussi-Pekka Kajaala secretly tied the knot in the Los Angeles area on New Year’s Eve. The Olympic figure skater and the Finnish real estate broker essentially eloped, exchanging vows in front of their officiant, a woman named Maria, and their pit bull mix puppy. “We always wanted to do something simple and just the two of us,” said the “Dancing With the Stars” alum. “We’ve been waiting to do it for a while and we always were like, ‘Let’s just go and do it and just have it be finished and we can finally be married.’” They got engaged in late 2020.
— On Jan. 12, People magazine broke the news that Pentatonix singer Matt Sallee married Sarah Bishop at Cielo Farms in Malibu on Jan. 2. “We both knew pretty much after our first date that the connection was rare and special,” said the bride and groom, who met in church two and a half years ago. “We’d both separately been praying for our life partners and knew that this wasn’t a coincidence, and our walk on the moonlit beach that night solidified it.”
— According to People magazine, singer-songwriter Meghan Linsey, who placed second on the eighth season of “The Voice” in 2015, eloped with longtime love Tyler Cain at Ironwoods Beach in Lahaina on Maui in Hawaii on Jan. 16. “We are just so excited to finally be married,” gushed the bride. “We’ve been together for 10 years in March and we are more in love now than we’ve ever been. We just knew if we don’t do it now, then when?” They got engaged in June 2019 and originally intended to tie the knot in April 2020 but were forced to push their nuptials amid the coronavirus pandemic.
— On Jan. 18, People magazine broke the news that “Straight Outta Compton” actor Keith Powers and “Star” actress Ryan Destiny recently called it quits after four years of coupledom. “They’re taking time to focus on themselves and their emerging careers but are remaining close friends,” said a source.
— According to People magazine, “Alaskan Bush People” star Bear Brown married Raiven Adams on Jan. 16. “It feels really good to be a married man, I’ve loved Raiven a long time and it’s a honor and a privilege to finally call her my wife. She is the most beautiful woman I’ve ever seen and still takes my breath away! … I look forward to building a life, a family and a home with Raiven, she’s the love of my life and my heart belongs to her and her alone,” gushed the groom. The off-and-on couple got engaged in August 2019 and welcomed son River in early 2020.
— On Jan. 17, People magazine broke the news that “Suburgatory” and “Imposters” actor Parker Young married his partner of 16 years, Stephanie Weber, in the backyard of their home in California on the bride’s birthday in September 2021. The groom’s “United States of Al” co-star Adhir Kalyan officiated the intimate nuptials, which were actually a surprise to the bride: “I think when couples have been together for as long as we have it can be easy to get complacent and let the spark can fade. It’s important to keep things exciting,” explained Parker, adding that he and Stephanie “never really cared to have a fancy, showy, expensive wedding.” Said the newlywed, “All we need is each other. That’s all we’ve ever needed. We committed our lives to each other long ago, so really this was just semantics. … I had already made that commitment to Stephanie almost two decades ago when I met her in high school and asked her to be my girlfriend. We didn’t need any paperwork or documents to solidify our commitment or some grandiose event to make it official. I found my soul mate long ago and we determined to walk this life together hand in hand.” Stephanie, meanwhile, said that the impromptu wedding felt “like a dream” because “the man that I have been together with for 15 years is finally caving in and giving me my daughter’s last name.” They were also joined at the ceremony by their dog and their little girl’s babysitter. The high school sweethearts reportedly got engaged in March 2018 and welcomed daughter Jaxon Orion later that year.

E! News has reached out to Bill and Anna’s reps for comment. Their representative declined to comment for People.
News of the pair’s secret romance comes more than a year after Bill and “The O.C.” alum Rachel Bilson called it quits. The two, who first sparked romance rumors in late 2019 before making their red-carpet debut as a couple at the 2020 Golden Globes, were together for less than a year. At the time of the split, a source told E! News that Rachel, 40, was “devastated.”
Celebrity Couples Who Found Love on Set
Bill and Rachel appeared together in the 2013 romantic comedy “The To Do List,” which was directed by Bill’s then-wife Maggie Carey. The two were married from 2006 to 2018 and have three children together.
And even though Anna and Bill have been together for a while now, the “Pitch Perfect” actress previously said that she doesn’t believe in soul mates “in any traditional sense.”
“Like, that word is kind of synonymous with ’the one,’” she told Emmy magazine in 2020. “There’s many ’the ones’ and if we’re lucky we spend a long time with someone.”

Bill Hader & Anna Kendrick’s Secret Romance Sparks Reactions
]
The world recently learned that Jason Momoa and Lisa Bonet are splitting up, which was a surprising (and mildly crushing) development, but the antidote might have arrived: Love Life star Anna Kendrick and Barry assassin Bill Hader have been secretly dating for about a year. The former Noelle co-stars were apparently (and this was a fitting prerequisite) “both single at the same time,” according to Us Weekly and are “really into each other and make each other laugh — a lot.”
It’s actually almost shocking to think that these two lovely people haven’t dated until now. They seem pretty perfect for each other, although heck, maybe the competitive comedic timing between them could be exhausting? Nah, they probably know how to turn it off during private time. Regardless, there’s a heck of a lot of people out there who are still waiting for news on Barry‘s return to HBO. The last we heard, Season 4 had been written, even though Season 3 hadn’t started filming yet. Other shows have already roared into production again (Love Life Season 2 filmed and released during the pandemic), so yeah, let’s hear some more updates on Barry. In the meantime, people are cracking jokes about possible crossovers and also commenting on how this dating development is possibly too adorable.
