Fresh star stories with a cool online feel.

Technically, the Freaks and Geeks alum isn't married yet (to our knowledge), but she and fiancé Steven Rodriguez have been engaged since 2013. Rodriguez is an actor turned makeup artist, so he's in the industry, but the couple actually met when he was 11 years old and Cardellini was just 10. As she recalled to People, "He was the new kid at my school. He could do amazing bike tricks and I was impressed. Not afraid to say it."

The duo got back in touch as adults and quickly realized there was something more romantic to their connection. "We've been friends for years and years," Cardellini noted. "It was not even three years that we got together and realized that we should've been doing that all along ... It didn't take long to figure out we were amazing friends, and we could probably be great partners." As Rodriguez sees it, their relationship felt like it was "meant to be."
