7 Celebrities With Non-Famous Partners

Oscar-winning actress Jennifer Lawrence is happily married to art gallery director Cooke Maroney. The two were introduced by a mutual friend in 2018, and were married a year later. In 2022 they welcomed their first child, Cy. 

In 2021, Lawrence told Vanity Fair that she didn’t know what to do about her celebrity status in her early relationship with Cooke.

“When I started dating my now husband, I was so embarrassed to bring my [security guard] when he asked me out. I mean, how mortifying would that have been? So I didn’t, and it made me really nervous the first few times, and it turned out totally fine,” she said.

In a later podcast, she echoed that statement, saying being with Maroney opened up realms of normalcy. 

“I used to have a stigma about, you know, I’d get nervous before going to restaurants, or I felt like I couldn’t go to dive bars. There were just certain things, like, ‘Oh, I can’t do that’,” Jen told Catt Sadler on her podcast in 2019. “And then the past year, I’ve just been doing all of that … Honestly, I was dating someone, and I didn’t want to tell him about [my nerves]. You know, I wanted to be normal and cool, so I just kind of hid that part of me and everything ended up being fine. And I was like, ‘oh, I can do this.’ It was cool.”
