15 Celebs Who’ve Never Married

There is a LOT of social pressure to get married and that’s doubly true for celebrities. When thousands, maybe even millions of people’s parasocial relationships rely on you matching up with the correct other famous person, that can result in a lot of pestering, particularly online.

Whether they’ve been with a partner for 20 years or just never had a very long relationship, here is our list of 15 celebrities who haven't walked down the aisle and never married.

Kristin Davis of Sex and the City fame is quite different from her character in the show. These days she’s more concerned with caring and providing for her adopted child than getting married.

In 2013, she spoke on the topic of marriage, saying,  "I certainly intellectually feel like I'd like to have another romantic relationship, but I don't know how to make the day-to-day of it happen. I don't have time!.. Now I have a baby and I have to put her first and think about what she needs, and stability is a huge, huge part of that."

Oprah is one of the most powerful women on the planet. It’s no surprise that her relationship status has been the subject of news coverage for years but her reason for not wanting to marry her long-time partner is certainly interesting.

In a 2020 interview, Oprah said of her partner, “He’s never demanding anything from me like, 'Where’s my breakfast? Where’s my dinner?' Never any of that, which I believed would have changed had we married.”

According to her quote, it seems like Oprah thinks that marriage would change her relationship with her partner Graham for the worse so she’d prefer to keep things just as they are.

Charlize Theron is a well-known actor that has been in the business since the mid-90s. She has also never been married and her reason for it is pretty sobering.

Theron explained in a 2019 interview, “I haven’t been in a relationship for a very long time… I never wanted to get married. Those are things that are not hard for me, because they're innately my truth. I find people are somewhat perplexed by that, and also more with women, right?"

She’s certainly correct that others seem to struggle to wrap their heads around the fact that marriage just isn’t right for some people, and that seems to especially be true for women.

Diane Keaton is another famous actor and filmmaker who just never really bothered. It seems that marriage was never right for her according to this 2019 quote. “I don’t think it would have been a good idea for me to have married, and I’m really glad I didn’t, and I’m sure they’re happy about it, too.”

It’s unclear how life would have been different if she had gotten married but, ultimately, if it wasn’t right for her, then it’s for the best that she stayed single.

Jon Hamm seems to be perfectly happy remaining unmarried.

Even when he was happily together with his longtime partner Jennifer Westfeldt, he didn’t seem to have any interest in marrying, saying in a 2010 interview, “I don’t have the marriage chip, and neither of us has the greatest examples of marriages in our families. But Jen is the love of my life, and we’ve already been together four times longer than my parents were married.”

Lauren Graham has been with Peter Krause since around 2010 and in 2014 she shared her feelings on marriage, saying, “I feel like close to five years in Hollywood, it’s like, aren’t we married already really? It’s good the way it is.”

It seems as though Graham feels it’s not really necessary for her and Krause to get married and that she’s happy with the way things are.

Al Pacino

Al Pacino is unlikely to ever get married at his age and, when asked in 2020, he gave the most Al Pacino response imaginable. When asked why he never married, Al Pacino said, “Why I never proposed in the past? I hate to say this, but marriage is a state of mind, not a contract. When I think about the law and marriage, I ask myself, when did the cops get involved?”

It seems as though Al Pacino’s negative thoughts on marriage stem from their connection to government and possibly his own history, coming from a broken home.

Leonardo DiCaprio often has his dating habits made fun of as his girlfriends never seem to exceed the age of 25, but his thoughts on marriage are actually quite sweet.

When asked about the possibility of marriage, DiCaprio had this to say, “That time will come when that time comes. The truth is, you can’t predict marriage. You can’t plan it. It’s just going to happen when it happens."

Maybe one day DiCaprio will find that special someone, but for now, he’ll have to continue to endure the jabs at his dating tendencies.
