Winona Ryder

Of course, many of beloved star Winona Ryder’s relationships have become tabloid fodder. However, despite a few broken engagements, Ryder says she has no problems with the way things turned out.

“I’d rather never have been married than been divorced a few times,” Ryder explained to The Edit in 2016. “Not that there’s anything wrong with divorce, but I don’t think I could do it if that was a possibility. When your parents are madly in love for 45 years, your standards are really high. But I’ve been happily with someone for quite a while now.” That might explain why Ryder has never married her partner since 2011, fashion designer Scott Mackinlay Hahn.

Chelsea Handler

No doubt about it, Chelsea Handler is a woman of many talents. From stand-up comedy and talk show hosting to writing and producing, she’s done it all! While, thanks to her multi-show deal with Netflix, Handler has more free time than ever before, she has still yet to find the right person to settle down with.

Still, that has not stopped Handler from looking for her dream man! In recent years, the comedian has dated the likes of TV executive Ted Harbert, hotelier Andre Balazs, rapper 50 Cent, and animal trainer Dave Salmoni. Today, however, she remains happily single.

Charlize Theron

Almost everyone knows Academy Award-winner Charlize Theron as one of the most famous actresses in Hollywood. But you might not know that she thinks little of marriage. “Marriage to me is not that important. I want to have a partner and have a monogamous long-term relationship, I really do. But I don’t need to have a wedding,” she explained to Vogue in 2014. “My heart and my life and how I am with that guy is going to be exactly the same… Let’s put it this way: I never had the dream of the white dress.”

Most recently, Theron was in a nine-year relationship with Stuart Townsend. Sadly, the two parted ways in 2010. Since then, the actress has put her mothering skills to the test by adopting two children, Jackson, 6, and August, 2.

Rachel Maddow

It probably comes as no surprise, but many journalists are too busy to marry! Rachel Maddow is one of the most TV anchors who has yet to walk down the aisle. But it isn’t because she’s still searching – Maddow has been in the same relationship for decades! But, these days, Maddow remains busier than ever, between moderating debates and her nightly news program.

The Guardian

Behind the scenes, Maddow has been dating Susan Mikula while in college in 1999. Sadly, for many years, Mikula and Maddow could not marry, due to United States laws. Still, despite the legalization of gay marriage, the couple has decided to continue life unmarried!

Kylie Minogue

While Australian pop princess Kylie Minogue has enjoyed many several high-profile relationships over the decade, she’s another celebrity who’s never married! Fans have always wondered if Minogue would marry; it seems she loves the single life.

While one of her former boyfriends, actor Joshua Sasse, sparked engagement rumors when he named Minogue his “fiancée” in 2016, the two split less than a year later. Recently, the 53-year-old superstar announced a relationship with GQ‘s Creative Director, Paul Solomons. Even though Minogue stated in an interview that she found “true love” in Solomons, the two remain unwed.

Fabio Lanzoni

In the ’80s and ’90s, millions of women all around the world wanted to marry Fabio Lanzoni. After all, he was a romance novel model, cementing him in the imagination of ladies worldwide. However, Lanzoni never settled down. While he loved the single life for many decades, that all might change soon enough…

“Unfortunately, I had this amazing woman when I was younger, and she left a print on me,” Lanzoni recently told Oprah on her show Oprah: Where Are They Now? “[But now] I’m ready now to find the one and get married and have kids.” We hope he finds the one he’s looking for!

Ann Coulter

Media pundit Ann Coulter has undoubtedly made a name for herself, thanks to her outspoken role as a best-selling author and political commentator. However, something you might not know about Coulter is that she’s never married and loves the single life!

While Coulter has never explained why she’s never married, fans have their own ideas. You see, she’s been engaged multiple times in the past, to the likes of Spin founder Bob Guccione Jr. and conservative writer Dinesh D’Souza, but they have never led to a walk down the aisle. So, it seems the 59-year-old has simply not found the right one yet!

Sheryl Crow

Beloved songwriter Sheryl Crow has enjoyed some very high-profile relationships over the years. Since becoming famous, she’s dated the likes of Lance Armstrong, Eric Clapton, and Owen Wilson. But none of them had led to marriage. But that’s not because Crow doesn’t want to!

“I would love to get married – I’m still old-fashioned. But I don’t think marriage is the be-all and end-all,” Crow told Good Housekeeping back in 2014. “It’s better to have three broken engagements than three divorces.” Still, Crow shouldn’t worry! She’s 59-years-old and has plenty of time to find the right person to settle down with.

Lucy Liu

Iconic actress Lucy Liu has remained a famous face in Hollywood since the ’90s, thanks to movies like Charlie’s Angeles and Kill Bill: Volume 1. However, behind the scenes, while Liu is one of the many Hollywood stars who loves the single life. But that doesn’t mean she hasn’t enjoyed a historic love life!

Over the years, Liu has been connected to everyone from actor George Clooney and billionaire Noam Gottesman. However, much to the frustration of the tabloids, Liu keeps a tight lid on her romantic life. And the single life did not stop Liu from having a child herself! “It just seemed like the right option for me because I was working and I didn’t know when I was going to be able to stop,” Liu told People Magazine. “I decided that was probably the best solution for me, and it turned out to be great.”

Jon Hamm

Similar to his famous character on the hit show Mad Men, actor Jon Hamm doesn’t believe the marriage life is for him. When talking about his relationship with actress Jennifer Westfeldt, Hamm said, “We may not have a piece of paper that says we’re husband and wife, but after ten years, Jennifer is more than just a girlfriend. What we have is much deeper…she is the love of my life.”

Sadly, “true love” was not enough, as Hamm and Westfeldt split in 2015. “I don’t have the marriage chip,” Hamm explained, noting that his parents’ divorce left a lasting impact. As of this writing, the Mad Men star remains unwed.

Mary-Louise Parker

While famed actress Mary-Louise Parker shares a son with her ex-boyfriend, actor Billy Crudup, and once almost married Jeffrey Dean Morgan, she has never walked down the aisle. In fact, it seems that Parker does not need a husband, after adopting her own daughter in 2007 and raising her right.

“Maybe a psychiatrist would say I’m not married now because I have some sort of father thing. But you know what? That would be the least of my problems,” Parker said. As Parker seems like a great mom, we think that she has no problems to worry about!

Diane Keaton

Sadly, while Diane Keaton has one of the most successful careers in Hollywood, her love life has not endured the same levels of prosperity. Despite some of the most high-profile relationships ever, marriage bells never rang for Keaton. Many years ago, the Godfather actress wanted to marry her co-star and former boyfriend, Al Pacino, but it didn’t work out.

“He was even less inclined to be realistic than me,” Keaton later said. “And I was on the cusp of being very old. So that poor guy. I don’t think he was really that interested. And I don’t think a long-term happy marriage would be easy for him.” However, Keaton is proof you don’t need to be married to raise children or be happy on your own! The actress loves her life with her two children: son Duke and daughter Dexter.

Tyra Banks

Believe it or not, Tyra Banks is another successful celebrity who has never tied the not. However, considering her incredibly hectic schedule, it makes some sense. After all, Banks has a long list of jobs: TV host, businesswoman, author, actress, and content producer – just to name a few! She still models as well, gracing the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Edition cover in 2019.

The Today Show

However, it seems that all could change soon enough. While Banks recently confirmed that she’s “not engaged,” reports say that she and her boyfriend, Candian businessman Louis Bélanger-Martin, are getting very serious. So we will need to wait and listen for wedding bells!

Adrien Brody

At 48-years-old, Oscar winner Adrien Brody has still yet to tie the knot. While he’s dated some serious A-listers, like January Jones, Tori Amos, Elsa Pataky, and Keira Knight, it’s simply never worked out. For a while, it seemed that he would marry Michelle Dupont, a music industry personal assistant, especially after they attended the 2003 Oscars together. Sadly, they parted ways just a little while later.

Now, Brody has started dating Georgina Chapman, the former wife of disgraced media mogul Harvey Weinstein. Will this lead to the wedding aisle? Only time will tell! “She thinks he’s unusual and interesting,” a source told People Magazine. “She finds [him] to be an interesting person with a deep passion for his work that is similar to hers.”

Kristin Davis

Given her marriage-obsessed character Sex and the City Charlotte, many fans think that actress Kristen Davis also wants to settle down soon. However, that could not be further from the truth! Davis says she’s often too busy for relationships and loves the single life!

Frazer Harrison

“[In my twenties], I thought I’d never get married. Guess I was right! I grew up in the south, so all everyone talked about was marriage. But all I wanted was to move to New York and do theater. And in my thirties, I was busy doing the show, so I just didn’t have time,” Davis said recently. Today, the actress keeps herself busy with work and single motherhood. She has two adopted children, Gemma and her one-year-old son, whose name she has yet to reveal.

Winona Ryder

Of course, many of beloved star Winona Ryder’s relationships have become tabloid fodder. However, despite a few broken engagements, Ryder says she has no problems with the way things turned out.

“I’d rather never have been married than been divorced a few times,” Ryder explained to The Edit in 2016. “Not that there’s anything wrong with divorce, but I don’t think I could do it if that was a possibility. When your parents are madly in love for 45 years, your standards are really high. But I’ve been happily with someone for quite a while now.” That might explain why Ryder has never married her partner since 2011, fashion designer Scott Mackinlay Hahn.

Goldie Hawn & Kurt Russel

For anyone who doesn’t know, actress Goldie Hawn had been married twice before she ever started dating star Kurt Russel. That certainly explains why she does not want to do it again! Hawn and Russel met on the set of the film The One and Only, Genuine, Original Family Band, but it took them a year to start dating.

Incredibly, Hawn and Russel have remained together since 1983’s Valentine’s Day, never breaking up once! Today, the couple has a child together, while Hawn is also stepmom to Kurt’s son from a previous relationship. While marriage works for some, it seems that his Hollywood couple doesn’t need it!

Oprah Winfrey

While she does not frequently talk about it, TV legend Oprah Winfrey has been in a committed relationship with Stedman Graham since 1986. And while they became engaged in 1992, they ultimately decided to call it off. The reason? Well, according to Winfrey, the reason their relationship has lasted is that the two never married!

“We would not have stayed together, because marriage requires a different way of being in this world,” Winfrey explained to Vogue in 2017. “His interpretation of what it means to be a husband and what it would mean for me to be a wife would have been pretty traditional, and I would not have been able to fit into that.”

Ariel Winter

For many, many years, Modern Family actress Ariel Winter had no plans on getting married. She was simply happy working on one of the biggest sitcoms of all time and loving her long-term boyfriend, Levi Meaden. However, as Winter recently explained to People Magazine, now that Modern Family has ended, she’s more open to the idea of getting hitched.

“He’s supportive, he’s loving he’s caring, he’s a normal person. He cares. He’s smart, he’s talented, he’s everything. He’s great,” Winter said of Meaden. “I definitely do [see us getting married now]… that’s definitely my goal, long term is definitely my goal.”

Al Pacino

At this point, legendary actor Al Pacino has remained a household name for over five decades. And during that time, The Godfather star has enjoyed some seriously long-term relationships. Most notably, he had a nearly three-year-long relationship with actress Diane Keaton. Since then, Pacino has fathered three children, Julie, Anton, and Olivia, with two different women. However, he has never married.

Still, even at the age of 81, Pacino will not rule out marriage entirely. “I never say never. It’s possible,” Pacino said when asked if he would marry his longtime girlfriend Lucila Polak. Sadly, after a decade together, the couple split in 2018. And while they never married, Polak’s daughter still considers Pacino her step-father.

Jennifer Aniston

Fans are rooting for Jennifer Aniston like no other. Of course, her relationships have included the likes of Brad Pitt and John Mayer, but they’ve never led to marriage. While she did wed actor Justin Theroux, it only lasted three years, ending in 2017.

Over the past four years, it seems that Aniston has decided to take some time to herself. While there have been a few flirtatious moments with Brad Pitt since then, nothing has materialized. Aniston must love the single life! Still, that hasn’t stopped fans from desiring a Pitt and Aniston reunion!
