At first glance, Kiernan Shipka and James Marsden have had very different careers. The young actress became famous for playing Sally Draper on the critical darling Mad Men, and Marsden got his start with movies like Disturbing Behavior and X-Men. However, both actors starred in popular Netflix series. It's safe to say that The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina and Dead To Me made fans love Shipka and Marsden even more.
Of course, since they are both part of Hollywood, there is often speculation about Shipka and Marsden's love lives. Fans wondered if James Marsden was dating Westworld co-star Evan Rachel Wood, and there were rumors about Kiernan Shipka and John Mayer.
In the past few months, there have been many photos of Kiernan Shipka and James Marsden spending time together. This has led fans to believe that something could be going on between them. Here's the truth about whether the actors are dating...
Are Kiernan Shipka And James Marsden Dating?
Earlier in 2023, a post from the FauxMoi SubReddit shared a photo of James Marsden and Kiernan Shipka grabbing dinner together with a group. The post read, "Kiernan Shipka spotted out for dinner with James Marsden and friends in New York." This made people wonder if it's possible that the actors are dating or if they just have a platonic relationship.
Several people commented on the age difference between the two actors, as Shipka is 23 and Marsden is 50. One fan wrote that they had no idea that Marsden was that age: "This is me learning James Marsden is 50 and not like 36."
Some comments said that perhaps they are just pals. One Redditor wondered if it was business-related since they are both in the acting industry.
The actors have been seen in public together quite a few times. Shipka and Marsden both starred in the TV series White House Plumbers, which could be why they have been spending time together. Perhaps they bonded on set and became friendly. In April 2023, Footwear News reported that Shipka was at the White House Plumbers premiere.
According to Entertainment Tonight, when James Marsden had a 50th birthday party in September 2023, many celebrities were there, including Kiernan Shipka.
Page Six also reported in December 2022 that the two actors were at a Christmas gathering that Leonardo DiCaprio hosted. Delilah Belle Hamlin was there as well.
James Marsden and Kiernan Shipka have never said that they are dating. Anonymous sources also haven't spoken to any publications about a potential relationship. At the very least, it seems that the actors met while filming White House Plumbers, and they have been friends since. However, this is all speculation because Marsden and Shipka haven't said that they are friends, either.
The actors also don't seem to have given any interviews where they have talked about working with each other on White House Plumbers. Shipka did praise her co-star Woody Harrelson when speaking to Access Hollywood.
At the time of this writing, Kiernan Shipka might be single. There are no reports of her being in a relationship. As for James Marsden, he might still be in a relationship with Edei, whose real name is Emma Deign.
Hello Magazine reported that they began dating in 2015 and still seemed to be together in September 2022. Of course, if Marsden and Edei are still dating, then that means that he definitely isn't in a relationship with Shipka.
Who Has Kiernan Shipka Dated?
According to J-14, Kiernan Shipka was in a relationship with Christian Coppola, her The Chilling Adventures of Sabrina co-star. When she shared a photo of the two of them in Rome in July 2019, she wrote "MY LOVE" in the caption. This suggested that they were a couple.
As of November 2022, no one was sure if the couple was still together. J-14 noted that in October 2022, Shipka kept sharing photos of herself on Instagram that Coppola had snapped.
J-14 also reported that people thought that Shipka could have been dating Charlie Oldman and her Sabrina co-star Gavin Leatherwood. These relationships were never confirmed.
While fans often wonder who Shipka is dating and she doesn't always seem to come right out and say who her partner is, she does sometimes chat about love in interviews. A few years ago, she was interviewed by Stylist.co.uk. When she was asked about going on dates, she said, "Not a lot, because I’m so busy. I think that the show made me exponentially busier, and all I want to do is sleep on the weekends. Meeting people has always been kind of a funny situation for me, growing up not going to school, but knowing everyone who went to the schools in LA. It’s good, I’ve found ways."
When asked about using an app to find love, the actress told Stylist.co.uk, "Of course" and mentioned that she was a fan of Raya. She said, "Love it. God bless Raya."
Who Has James Marsden Dated?
James Marsden has had a few relationships, including his marriage to Lisa Linde, which lasted from 2000 to 2011. They are parents to a daughter named Mary James Marsden and a son named Jack Marsden.
While most interviews with Marsden focus on his latest projects, he did mention his divorce when he was on the cover of Men's Health in 2018. He mentioned that it was very challenging and said, “It was scary and sad and made me pull everything into focus. I needed to focus on what was important. So that’s who I am now because of that. I know regrets can be catalysts for good things.”
However, James Marsden did talk about his romantic life in a 2023 interview with Vanity Fair. He and Lizzy Caplan, who he is good friends with, spoke to the publication together. He said that she was there for him when he was splitting up with his wife and it sounds like that made them even better friends.
Marsden and Caplan mentioned that they co-starred in the 2014 comedy Bachelorette, which made fans think that they were a couple. Marsden said, "We were with each other all the time, is probably why. We liked to get the gossip going."
There definitely doesn't seem to be any proof of Kiernan Shipka and James Marsden being romantically involved. One thing is certain, though: both actors must be used to fans talking about their love lives and trying to figure out who they are interested in.
