The Short Answer: Yes, Since 2007
Rebecca Romijn married Jerry O'Connell on July 14, 2007. She was 34 and he was 33. The intimate ceremony — after her high-profile first marriage to John Stamos ended in 2005 — marked the start of one of Hollywood's most genuinely happy unions. Nineteen years later, they are still going strong.
Their marriage is famous for its humor: Romijn and O'Connell are relentlessly funny together, roasting each other on talk shows and social media with obvious affection. They co-hosted CBS's The Talk and various projects, and their chemistry is the real thing — not a brand.
In December 2008, when Romijn was 36, they welcomed twin daughters Dolly Rebecca Rose and Charlie Tamara Tulip O'Connell. Now 53, Romijn balances Star Trek: Strange New Worlds with family life — and a marriage that looks like fun.
Who Is Rebecca Romijn?
Rebecca Alie Romijn was born November 6, 1972, in Berkeley, California. A top model (Sports Illustrated, Victoria's Secret) before acting, she broke through as the blue-skinned Mystique in X-Men (2000) — a physically grueling role requiring hours of body paint — and reprised it across the franchise.
She starred as Alexis Meade on Ugly Betty, hosted Skin Wars, and since 2022 has played Number One (Una Chin-Riley) on Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, earning a new generation of sci-fi fans.
Now 53 (turning 54 in November 2026), Romijn has had one of the most successful model-to-actress transitions in the business — and a personal life to match.

Current Status: 19 Years and Laughing
As of 2026, Rebecca Romijn and Jerry O'Connell are still married — 19 years. Their twins are 17, and the family remains close-knit and funny. O'Connell, 52, continues acting and hosting; Romijn, 53, continues beaming blue (or Starfleet gold).
Their public dynamic — playful, teasing, clearly devoted — has made them a favorite Hollywood couple. In an industry of curated perfection, their messiness feels real.
Nineteen years in, the joke is still on everyone who doubted the second marriage would last.
About Jerry O'Connell
Jerry O'Connell, born February 17, 1974, in Manhattan, was a child star (Stand by Me, 1986) who grew into a versatile actor: Sliders, Jerry Maguire, Piranha 3D, and Billions. He is also a talk-show host (The Talk) and professional funnyman.
His marriage to Romijn is his first and only. Together they are greater than the sum of their parts — a comedy duo who happen to be married.
At 52, O'Connell is the rare child star who grew up normal — and the husband who makes Romijn laugh daily, by all accounts.
The Stamos Years
Romijn's 1998-2005 marriage to John Stamos was a 2000s tabloid staple: the model and the Full House heartthrob, red-carpet perfect. The divorce in 2005 was amicable by Hollywood standards but heavily covered.
She dropped the Stamos from her professional name after the split, reclaiming Romijn. The O'Connell marriage, beginning two years later, has now lasted nearly three times as long.
First marriages teach; second marriages — when they work — prove it.
What Fans Also Ask
Fans asking if Rebecca Romijn is married usually want the O'Connell story, the twins, and the Stamos history. The answers below cover the most-searched questions.
Nineteen years, twin teens, and endless laughter — Romijn and O'Connell are Hollywood's happiest punchline.
Hosting and Recent Work
Beyond Star Trek, Romijn has thrived as a host: Skin Wars, the reality competition she fronted, and various hosting gigs that leverage her warmth and wit. She and O'Connell remain a go-to hosting duo.
At 53, with twins nearly grown and a 19-year marriage, Romijn's career is in a rich third act — model, mutant, first officer, host. The throughline is charisma that never needed a blueprint.
Star Trek: Strange New Worlds
Romijn's 2020s renaissance is Star Trek: Strange New Worlds, where she plays Una Chin-Riley — Number One, the Enterprise's first officer. The role, originating from the 1965 pilot, gave Romijn a sci-fi icon to match Mystique — and a new generation of devoted Trekkie fans.
Her Number One is warm, competent, and quietly revolutionary: a genetically modified officer hiding her identity in a Starfleet that fears her kind. Romijn plays the duality beautifully, and the show is Paramount+'s flagship.
At 53, Romijn has now headlined two major franchises across three decades — blue mutant and Starfleet officer. The twins are 17, the marriage is 19 years, and the career keeps ascending. Not bad for a former model.
The Stamos Years: What the First Marriage Taught
Before the laughter with O'Connell, there was the high-gloss first act. Romijn married Full House star John Stamos in 1998, at the height of both their fame — she the supermodel-turned-actress, he the beloved sitcom star. For seven years she was credited professionally as Rebecca Romijn-Stamos, a hyphen that marked the era. The marriage ended in divorce in 2005, and Romijn has rarely discussed its details publicly, which is itself a statement about how she handles endings.
What the record does show is the contrast in what followed. Within two years of the divorce, she was dating Jerry O'Connell — a courtship both have described as humor-matched from the start — and married him in July 2007 in an intimate ceremony, the opposite of a celebrity production. The twins arrived eighteen months later. Where the first marriage was a merger of two famous names, the second was built on a shared comic sensibility and a deliberate step back from the spotlight.
The lesson, if there is one, is visible in the results: nineteen years, two teenagers, and a partnership that performs its happiness rather than guarding it. Romijn's public warmth with O'Connell — the talk-show roasting, the social-media bits — reads as the confidence of someone who learned what she needed. The Stamos years were the education; the O'Connell years are the application.
