Allison Williams, best known for her role as Marnie on HBO’s *Girls*, has officially tied the knot with fellow actor Alexander Dreymon, marking a new chapter in a love story that’s been quietly unfolding behind the scenes for years.
A Quiet “I Do”
The couple, who began dating in late 2019, recently confirmed their marriage after Williams casually referred to Dreymon as her “husband” during an interview with *The Guardian* in June 2025. While the exact date of their wedding hasn’t been publicly disclosed, the confirmation came as no surprise to fans who’ve followed their low-key but affectionate relationship.
Love on Set
Their romance began on the set of the 2020 survival thriller *Horizon Line*, where they played a couple facing a life-or-death situation mid-flight. That on-screen chemistry quickly translated into real life, and the two began dating shortly after filming wrapped.
Parenthood in Private
In November 2021, the couple welcomed their first child, a son named Arlo, via emergency C-section. True to their private nature, they kept the news under wraps until April 2022, when they were spotted vacationing with their baby in the Bahamas. Williams later opened up about motherhood, calling it “the most unbelievable adventure” and admitting she’s “obsessed” with her son.
Red Carpet Moments
Though they’ve kept their relationship largely out of the spotlight, Williams and Dreymon have made a few memorable public appearances. They made their red carpet debut in December 2022 at the premiere of *M3GAN*, a horror-comedy film starring Williams. Dreymon later confirmed their engagement in an Instagram post, calling her his “gorgeous fiancée”.
Since then, they’ve been spotted together at high-profile events like the Oscars, New York Fashion Week, the Met Gala, and the Giorgio Armani Women’s SS25 fashion show, often sharing affectionate moments that hint at their strong bond.
Who Is Alexander Dreymon?
Dreymon, 42, is a German-born actor best known for his role as Uhtred of Bebbanburg in Netflix’s *The Last Kingdom*. He’s also appeared in *American Horror Story: Coven* and *Christopher and His Kind*. Beyond acting, Dreymon made his directorial debut in the final season of *The Last Kingdom*, a move he described as a long-time dream.
He’s lived a nomadic life, growing up between France, the U.S., and Switzerland, and has said he feels at home in many places. That global perspective, paired with his passion for storytelling, has made him a versatile and grounded performer.
Past Relationships
Before finding love with Dreymon, Williams was married to CollegeHumor co-founder Ricky Van Veen. The two wed in 2015 but separated in 2019 after nearly four years of marriage. Their split was amicable, and Williams has since spoken about how her life has evolved in unexpected and beautiful ways.
A Love Story on Their Terms
What makes Williams and Dreymon’s relationship stand out is how intentionally private they’ve been. In an era of oversharing, they’ve chosen to protect their personal life, sharing just enough to let fans in without sacrificing their boundaries. Their wedding, much like their relationship, was a quiet celebration of love, family, and partnership.
As Williams once said in an interview, “Everything is unrecognizable to me now. It’s all different.” That transformation—from newly single to mother and now wife—has been profound, and she’s embraced it with grace and gratitude.
