Revisiting Ewan McGregor and Mary Elizabeth Winstead's secret love story: From Fargo to Star Wars

A Love Tale Written in the Stars: Ewan McGregor & Mary Elizabeth Winstead's Romantic Saga

Who would've thought that the set of Fargo would turn into Cupid's playground? Ewan McGregor and Mary Elizabeth Winstead's whirlwind romance has had its fair share of dramatic twists and turns, making their story more gripping than any film reel. Now, as they both are shining in respective roles in the Star Wars universe, let's throw it back to their epic love journey.

Fargo Flames to Wedding Bells

Starting off as co-stars on the set of the TV series Fargo in late 2016, sparks were evident. As reported by People back in 2022, the two sealed their romance with a heartwarming, intimate wedding ceremony surrounded by close friends and family. "It was a small wedding for family and close friends," a source had shared, revealing the organic, farm-to-table menu and the duo's fondness for their tranquil canyon life.

Navigating the Waters of Heartbreak

Heartbreak wasn't a stranger to either of them. Before finding solace in each other's arms, both had to traverse the tumultuous roads of divorce. In 2017, Winstead ended her seven-year-long marriage to Riley Stearns. Around the same time, the Doctor Sleep star, McGregor, also embarked on a separation journey from Eve Mavrakis after a whopping 22 years. "I got divorced a couple of years ago...that was what I knew," Winstead confessed in a candid chat with Glamour U.K. in 2020. "I was really starting new as an adult for the first time in my life."

From Past Challenges to Present Bliss

The silver lining? The birth of their son, Laurie, in June 2021. The baby boy added a new chapter of happiness to their tale. During his Emmy acceptance speech, McGregor gushed, "Mary, I love you so much. I'm gonna take this home and show it to our new little boy, Laurie."

Star Wars Beckons: Their Next Hollywood Adventure

Beyond their personal joys, the future looks intergalactic for the duo! McGregor shined in his Jedi spirit in Obi-Wan Kenobi, released on May 27, last year. On the other hand, Winstead is joining forces with Rosario Dawson for Ahsoka, rekindling memories of their previous collaboration in 2007's Death Proof.

Indeed, as the stars align for this Hollywood couple, their journey from the snowy sets of Fargo to the expansive Star Wars universe exemplifies that love truly knows no bounds.
