Celebrities Who Never Got Married – And The Reasons Behind

Stacey Abrams – 47

Not much information is available about Stacey Abrams’ personal life, and it’s quite probably because people tend to focus more on her work and contribution to society. As a voting rights activist and lawyer, Abrams has been a prominent figure in the political scene after she campaigned for various causes and succeeded.

Now in her late forties, several folks were curious why Abrams hasn’t been in a serious relationship or even considered marriage. But with one quick look at her career, it’s safe to assume Stacey probably doesn’t have the time for it!

Condoleezza Rice – 66

As a highly accomplished woman, one could say Condoleezza Rice probably has it all. Not only is she an esteemed professor at the prestigious Stanford University, but the American diplomat has been triumphant in other aspects of her life, except, perhaps, love.

People couldn’t help but wonder why she has never walked down the aisle, considering she was nearing her seventies. But Rice would shrug off and say perhaps her ‘Mr. Right’ hasn’t arrived yet! No matter the case, one could still tell she found a different kind of love that makes her happy anyway – it’s the love for her students and teaching.

Marisa Tomei - 56

Marisa Tomei has earned multiple awards and cemented her star-status in Hollywood thanks to her award-winning performance in The Wrestler, where she portrayed Cassidy's role – she even received a nod from the Academy Awards because of it. Unfortunately, her jampacked schedule has made it almost impossible for her to date!

Tomei's been linked to many handsome actors like Josh Radnor and Robert Downey Jr. and was even in a relationship with Marco Calvani. Yet, it seems Marisa won't settle down at all after she declared that 'marriage as an institution' isn't for her. Likely, we'll never see this beautiful star don a wedding dress in this lifetime!

Leonardo DiCaprio – 46

Ever since Leonardo DiCaprio graced the silver screen back in the ‘90s, he’s officially become one of Hollywood’s most sought-after actors. His career has been one emotional rollercoaster ride, considering he’s starred in the best films, from Titanic to The Revenant - where he finally got his first Academy Award.

Despite his massive success in the industry, his love life seems to be the complete opposite. DiCaprio is nearing his fifties, yet he’s still the most eligible bachelor around. For now, the actor shows no signs of settling down amidst his high-profile love affairs. Whatever the reason, one could surmise that perhaps he simply hasn’t met ‘the one’!

Jon Hamm – 49

Unlike most men his age, Jon Hamm revealed that he doesn’t feel the pressure of getting hitched anytime soon – and why would he? The actor had the time of his life as one of Hollywood’s favorite leading men while freely navigating the dating scene to his delight. Currently, fellow Mad Men actress Anna Osceola has captured Jon’s heart, and it seems he’s quite enamored by her.

Speculations arose when the two found themselves caught together on a date around town, but fans can only keep their fingers crossed that they’ll make things official. We’ll never know; maybe Jon may pop the big question if all goes well!

Kourtney Kardashian – 41

With her gorgeous Armenian looks and sassy personality to match, it’s almost hard to imagine why Kourtney Kardashian still hasn’t left the singles’ market yet! To be fair, she’s had quite a colorful life with her former partner, Scott Disick, with whom she shares three kids. The tandem was among reality TV’s most influential couples, so why did they forego tying the knot after all this time?

As it turns out, their differences were a significant factor in why Kourtney and Scott never ended up in front of the altar. But that doesn’t mean her feelings for him wavered – he is the father of her kids, after all.

Owen Wilson – 52

Owen Wilson may not be the typical dashing leading man that fans often see in movies, but his charm and quirky antics make up for it! He has starred in various blockbuster flicks like Zoolander and Wedding Crashers throughout the years, but unlike his career, Owen hasn’t been that lucky in the love department.

To date, the comedian had two serious and long-term relationships, which gave him two sons. That would’ve been enough for some to settle down, yet it never seemed to work out for any of Owen’s former girlfriends. Oh well, maybe he’s just not the marrying type.

Susan Boyle – 59

Susan Boyle’s claim to fame was her stellar and moving performance of Les Miserables’ I Dreamed a Dream on the popular competition show Britain’s Got Talent. Since then, Boyle made appearances in several programs like highly well-received The Christmas Candle back in 2013 – people couldn’t get enough of her melodious voice.

With her busy schedule and constant guesting stints, Susan admitted she completely missed out on dating and finding the right man for marriage. But the artist isn’t keeping her doors closed despite being of older age! Who knows, perhaps her soulmate is just around the corner. We wish her nothing but the best!

Lucy Liu – 52

Remember how Lucy Liu officially became a powerful vixen onscreen when she played the role of Alex in the 2000 hit reboot film Charlie’s Angels? That was a pivotal moment in her career as it attracted hunks along her way, and her personal life hasn’t been the same since then! Unfortunately, there seems to be no man who could convince Liu to walk down the aisle.

At some point, people thought marriage was in the books for Lucy after her engagement with Zach Helm became public in 2004. But when that fell through, she figured perhaps motherhood would best suit her instead – a goal Lucy eventually accomplished in 2015.

Bill Maher – 64

Kids nowadays aren't too familiar with Bill Maher and his work, but he's actually made a name for himself due to his famous talk show with HBO called Real Time with Bill Maher. The show first aired in 2003 and continues to rule the airwaves – his comedic ways are just too funny to miss!

Meanwhile, Bill's personal life has been a hot topic as he typically led a bachelor lifestyle for most of his life, with a couple of questionable conquests. Maher's relationship with model Heather Hunter became publicized after he apparently failed to fulfill his wedding promise. It seems some guys can't shake off singlehood!

Mary-Louise Parker - 56

Mary-Louise Parker first gained prominence in the late-90s for her craft, and then for her relationship with actor Billy Crudup. Their chemistry was electrifying, and they were soon to become parents, but sadly, this lovely duo split up even before the birth of their child.

To date, the reason for Mary and Billy's separation remains a mystery, just as her second mysterious breakup with Jeffrey Dean Morgan. Both met while shooting for Weeds, started dating, got engaged, and then, suddenly came the unfortunate news. Still single, Mary enjoys her life with her children - a son William Atticus Parker and an adopted daughter Caroline Aberash Parker.

Lauren Graham - 53

Besides being dedicated to her critically acclaimed TV show Gilmore Girls, the gorgeous Lauren Graham has also been in a committed relationship with the talented actor Peter Krause. The couple has been officially dating since 2010, but they met way back on the sets of Caroline in the City.

Though not married yet, Lauren and Peter are happily living together in Los Angeles. Before the Six Feet Under star, our favorite celeb dated Mathew Perry around 2003, who announced their breakup after being together for two years. Now that she's enjoying a stable love life, we hope Peter and Lauren see a forever in each other!

Kylie Minogue - 52

Kylie Minogue may not belong to generation Z, but her thoughts and beliefs are utterly modern. While the highest-selling artist has been in a committed relationship with Paul Solomons for several years, Kylie says she doesn't really believe in the concept of marriage. Even her fans have shown immense respect for her values and have been nothing but supportive.

Besides, everyone can see how Kylie is head over heels in love with Paul. She often speaks about him with a lot of pride and credits him for filling her life with light when she needed it the most. Kylie and Solomons both admit that they are each other's happy place!

Seth MacFarlane - 47

A renowned voice artist and a brilliant actor - Seth MacFarlane has always been on the top of his field. Perhaps being so occupied with work is why he doesn't pay much heed to his love life. Although he has been in a couple of romantic relations, including A-list celebs like Emilia Clarke, but never pulled any of these affairs for long enough to be married.

Fans had great hopes when they saw Clarke and Seth together, but, unfortunately, things went south within a year. It's hard to say if the professional star has dated anyone after her, but since then, Seth has kept his romantic life under the radar.

James Franco - 43

James Franco has wowed us with his charm and acting for some time now. If you've seen films like "Pineapple Express," "James Dean," and the 2020-released "Kill the Czar," then you know all about his brilliance. But, while it's the norm for actors to marry colleagues and, in some cases, non-actors, Franco is quite the exception.

Although we had hoped for a wedding when he dated "Whatever It Takes" co-star Marla Sokoloff and actress Ahna O'Reilly, those relationships eventually ended. Later, during an interview with "Playboy," he revealed that his interest in education affected his time with O'Reilly. So it may be a while before Franco says, "I do."

Winona Ryder - 49

There was a time when Winona Ryder was vocal about her relationship with the Hollywood handsome Johnny Depp. Both even got engaged, and Depp had a tattoo of his lady love's name on his arm. God only knows what happened all of a sudden, but the entire Tinseltown was upset when these two split up. Since then, the celeb has kept her personal matters to herself.

Although Winona tried dating after Depp, she seems to have given up marriage. The Stranger Things 3 star is currently seeing Scott Mackinlay Hahn. Together since 2011, the duo appears to be in no hurry to tie the knot.

Sheryl Crow - 58

Sheryl Crow is a top-list singer, composer, and actress. The talented artist has released two live albums, four highest-selling compilations, and approximately ten studio albums. Lucky in work and a little bit unlucky in love, Crow has been engaged thrice but never married yet.

It's only fair that the musician took the most extended break from marriage to focus on her career and amply provide for her two adorable adopted kids. However, Sheryl had gladly announced that she is now ready to give love another chance if she finds someone worth taking the risk.

Ricky Gervais - 59

Ricky Gervais has been in a 38-year-long relationship with the famous author and producer - Jane Fallon. Are you wondering why they aren't married yet? The comedian is an atheist who sees no point in exchanging vows in front of a higher power he does not believe in, really.

Well, the duo has been inseparable since their college days; Jane and Gervais probably don't need an additional tag to certify their companionship. Besides his personal life, Ricky has been doing great in his professional life as well. He recently featured in Time's list of 100 most influential people globally. Heartfelt congratulations to the rockstar!

Diane Keaton - 75

In her mid-70s, Diane Keaton lives her best single life as a doting mother to her two adopted children. The legendary actress recently admitted in an interview that it'd been thirty-five long years since she even went on a date.

Although it's not like she didn't wish to tie the knot with someone special ever, unfortunately, none of her affairs proceeded towards marriage. While the BAFTA Award winner may not be interested in dating anymore, but back when she was open to the idea, Diane was romantically involved with some of Hollywood's megastars, including the legendary Al Pacino and Woody Allen himself.

Ralph Nader - 86

The American political activist Ralph Nader makes overworking look cool! At a very early stage in life, he decided never to get married, and it seems there have been no regrets either! In an interview with Karen Croft, Ralph admitted that he's firm on his decision and will happily devote all his life to work. Understandably so, not everyone is meant to follow the age-old tradition.

This happily single man keeps himself busy with several reformation projects, lives a modest lifestyle, and promotes traveling by public transport. Nader may have appeared in a cameo role for Fun with Dick and Jane, but he doesn't own a TV himself.

Tim Robbins - 62

Tim Robbins and Susan Sarandon were famous for maintaining a healthy relationship in an industry where changing partners frequently appears to be a casual affair. Without performing wedding nuptials, the couple stayed together for 23 years. Both Tim and Susan believed that after being married, they would lose interest in each other. Despite their age gap, they seemed to be on the same page since day one about this opinion.

However, over time, their love faded. Robbins and Sarandon eventually had to announce their separation in 2009. The Shawshank Redemption actor now stays busy spending time with his children and rarely connects with his ex-partner as parents only!

Kristin Davis - 55

Not everyone is made for marriage, and Kristin Davis happens to be one of them. The SATC star sure has been a part of many relationships but never decided to settle down. We wonder if this was because she could not find her soul mate or never felt any man was good enough. Whatever it may be, we love how independent Kristin is.

Not many would be aware, but Davis even adopted a baby girl and makes motherhood look beautiful even without a partner. She undoubtedly is an inspiration to many single women out there!

Dana Delany - 64

Would you believe ff we tell you that the forever pretty Dana Delany is a non-believer in the marriage institution? Well, as unbelievable as it may be, it is true! She may not want to settle down, but she sure does want her fans to be happy with her performances, and they most definitely are!

The Desperate Housewives star is frequently rumored to be dating quite known faces of the entertainment industry, but none she wanted to spend the rest of her life with yet, it seems. Our eyes are on you, Dana, your fans still await the news of you walking down the aisle for sure!

Edie Falco - 57

Edie Falco may be in her late fifties, but she has no plans to tie the knot. She has an unconventional life and is absolutely proud of it. Falco's choice of entering motherhood proved life-changing when she adopted two children, even without a partner by her side.

Edie's idea of marriage was broken into pieces all because of her parent's failed relationship. What she now wishes for her kids is something way different than what she witnessed as a child. Falco sure passes the test of being a good mother, and we are confident, if she ever decides to marry, she will make a fantastic partner too!

Matt Dillon - 56

Matt Dillon is famous for dating some celebrated women from the entertainment industry, but unfortunately, it did not end up in anything substantial. He has been going strong with Roberta Mastromichele for years now, but what is not in sight is a wedding. It seems Matt finds more peace in being in a stable relationship than dealing with a marriage's pressures. Well, he is not wrong!

Till then, we look forward to Matt and Roberta's hand-in-hand pictures at different events, and not to lie, the news of their wedding soon. No pressure from our side, sir!

Benicio del Toro - 53

If there is something we wish to know about Benicio del Toro is his personal life. He has never tied the knot but has a daughter with Kimberley Stewart. There was absolutely no news of them even dating; we wonder where the paps were as they missed out on something so important.

Currently, Toro seems to be enjoying his singledom and has no plans to marry in the future as well. If this gives him happiness, his fans are totally supportive of this decision. The director-actor is probably more concerned about taking his career ahead than it already is!

Shakira - 43

We have danced to her tunes and jived to her music. She is none-other-than Shakira! This stunning and talented lady is in her forties but has no plans to marry. Although that does not mean she is not in love because her long relationship with Spanish footballer Gerard Piqué is absolute goals!

Shakira has two beautiful children with him and is living quite a happy life. The Beautiful Liar diva is the perfect instance of how two people can deepen a bond even without a legal stamp of approval. We are in complete awe of how she balances a demanding career and her family!

Allison Janney – 61

Allison Janney has captivated the hearts of many through her films and television appearances. Naturally, when the Mom actress declared that she has no intention of ever getting married, several hearts were broken at once!

Not only does she have no desire to be someone’s partner, but the award-winning star also does not wish to embrace motherhood either! Nonetheless, her success and contentment scream that she’s perfectly content with her life just the way it is, and Allison has no aim of altering it anyhow. On the work front, Janney is preparing to appear in the upcoming movie Breaking News in Yuba County!

Jacqueline Bisset – 76

Jacqueline Bisset lets the world know you do not need a man to complete you! The Golden Globe nominee has made it abundantly clear that she does not wish to compromise her freedom for anything, which is why the actress has still not exchanged vows with anyone despite radiating with sheer beauty even in her 70s!

The Airport actress has also reasoned that she won’t marry because she is unwilling to put up with the “bad habits” of another. We can only guess as to what that remark means. Bisset has made peace with her singlehood and independence and is happier than ever!

Billy Crudup – 52

Billy Crudup has had many love interests throughout his life. The Jackie actor also made some of those relationships public and spilled some real tea to the paparazzi about his romantic life. However, he still has not said "I do" to any of his girlfriends.

When Crudup's relationship with Claire Danes began to gather friction, we romantic buffs assumed this could culminate into a grand wedding. However, the couple mutually called it quits after only two years of togetherness. From what it appears, Crudup does not consider marriage to be on the cards at all!

Joan Jett – 62

Joan Jett is not a stranger to being on the front page of snazzy magazines and newspapers! The rock singer, best known as the frontwoman of her band Joan Jett & Blackhearts, has appeared in various interviews, with her love life being the center of attention, always!

When the singer refused to get married but continued dating many A-list celebrities of both genders, the paparazzi couldn’t help but ask questions about her romantic allegiance. However, this resilient star has always remained tight-lipped and refused to feed any information about her personal life, and that’s precisely how it should be!

Drew Carey – 62

Drew Carey has seen many ups and downs in his romantic life. At one point, the comedian did wish to dedicate his life to a single woman, but things went haywire because of reasons unknown. He first announced his engagement with Nicole Jaracz in 2007, whose son was adored by the actor.

However, Carey would call off the engagement five years later. The entertainer then announced that he was betrothed to a therapist named Amie Harwick, although that too did not go as planned. At present, Drew is not looking to settle into wedlock and dedicates his time to work.

Kurt Russel and Goldie Hawn – 69 & 75

This couple makes it clear that love does not need the seal of marriage for authentication! Russel and Hawn met in 1983 on Swing Shift's set and instantly felt the spark for each other; they began dating and parented a child together. The pair have now been together for almost 37 years and is still going strong!

When asked why they never married, Russel revealed that a legal certification wasn't necessary for couples like them to create something that already was there! The attractive duo shows how to stay loved up every day, and commitment to one another is the only thing that matters.

John Cusack – 54

John Cusack remains hush-hush about his relationships. But word on the street is, the actor has no intention of being married. He says that he won't do something just because society wants him to do it. Kudos to this guy!

However, the actor has still dated some of the high-profile actresses, including Pulp Fiction actress Uma Thurman and Jennifer Hewitt. Whether or not the Say Anything actor will ever tie the knot or not is a mystery, but the Cusack appears to be content with whatever he presently has in life. And in the end, that's what matters.

Oprah Winfrey – 66

Oprah Winfrey has consolidated herself as a strong and successful lady and an inspiration to millions of women out there. After amassing a vast fortune and building an ideal life for herself, the talk show host has decided not to get married or have kids.

Although she has been dating her lifelong love, Stedman Graham, she has no desire to enter into wedlock with him. Her philanthropic work made her realize the heavy responsibilities of marriage and motherhood and confessed that her work wouldn’t allow her to dedicate time to a family.

David Muir – 47

David Muir has piqued the fancy of many due to his handsome features, charming personality, and compelling way of speaking. In fact, this fine-looking journalist made it to the list of Most Desirable Men Alive of People’s magazine in 2014 and for obvious reasons!

Although the anchor has been linked with various other celebrities romantically, there have been no records of him ever being married for reasons unknown. Although, if he has a secret wife hiding somewhere in his mansion, then the story is different altogether! But on the records, Muir is single and may be ready to mingle?

Cote De Pablo - 41

The stunning American-Chilean singer and actress Cote De Pablo has been single since she broke up with her long term partner Diego Serrano in 2015. As per the reports, none of the celebs shared a reason for their split, but fans were shocked to learn the reality.

However, there may have been some turbulence in her love life, but Pablo's career has seen nothing but growth. From playing Marguerite Cisneros in The Jury to several well-received projects, including NCIS, The 33, and The Dovekeepers, the talented lady has given performances par excellence. Besides work, Pablo loves spending time with her family and going on extended vacations with them.

Al Pacino - 80

Isn't it hard to believe that a man as handsome as the legendary Al Pacino has never been married? Well, The Godfather star did date fascinating women like Veruschka von Lehndorff, Lyndall Hobbs, and more; it was only his fear of commitment that never let him walk down the aisle with either of these lovely ladies.

Pacino may have feared being a husband, but he was always ready to become a dad. The celeb is a dedicated parent to three loving children, two of which are twins from his ex-lover - Beverly D'Angelo, and one from his acting trainer. Wedded or not, Pacino isn't alone or lonely for sure!
