Are Dominique Crenn and his partner Maria Bello married?

Sadly no, Dominique Crenn and his partner Maria Bello are still not married as of 2022.

According to Maria, they are “quite happy” living their lives as fiancées. So they don’t know when they will actually walk down the aisle. However, they do plan to have a grand wedding.

“So this is our first fun time in Hollywood. It was unexpected and meaningful, but it was time. I was finally old enough to get married,” Maria shared after a week of engagement.

The actress added that they are “really excited about this new chapter.” Being with Dominique, doing the things she always does, but this time, with her partner, Maria wants nothing more.

When did Maria Bello and Dominique Crenn start dating?

Maria Bello and Dominique Crenn started dating in late 2018 to early 2019.

Shortly after the couple started seeing each other, Dominique was later diagnosed with breast cancer. She then tried to warn Maria about how her cancer would affect their relationship. But the actress didn’t let anything come between them. “She was like, ‘I’m here and I’m going to be here the whole time,’ and she was there for me. She was there for us,” Dominique explained.

In response, Maria added, “Listen, I just know. I just know and so does she. I have never laughed so much as I did last year.”

Also, Maria doesn’t hesitate to mention that you really learn how a person rolls when they’re sick. And she loves how Dominique “rolls through life and dances through life” even when she’s really sick. It’s no wonder she chose her as her future partner.

The couple got engaged in December 2019 during a romantic getaway to Paris. However, they only revealed the news of their engagement in February 2020 while en route to Elton John’s annual Oscar party.

“We’re pretty happy, because we just got engaged,” Bello revealed to Entertainment Tonight reporter Lauren Zima at the time.

Dominique beat cancer and was healthy when we last checked.

Do Dominique Crenn and Maria Bello adopt children?

Dominique Crenn and Maria Bello have children of their own. But it’s unclear whether they adopted children together.

Talking about Dominique’s children, she has twin daughters named Olivia and Charlotte whom she shares with her ex-partner Katherine Keon. The twins live with Katherine and turn 8 on May 1, 2022.

On their 8th birthday, Dominique posted a photo of them on her IG with the caption, “You are my brightest light, and my strength that allows me to work harder for a better world. You are kind, smart, conscious, and curious. You are the example of a truly free person, I love you more than you know. You are my best friends and you both teach me humility. You are the most important thing in this world. I love you, Charlotte and Olivia.”

As for Maria, she has a son named Jackson from her relationship with screenwriter Dan McDermott. And now that Dominique and Maria are engaged, Dominique may also take on the role of parent to Maria’s son.

And for anyone wondering if Dominique ever feels like she missed out on being a biological mother, well, she’s pretty happy with her “non-biological” children.

Back in 2018, when a man called her out for missing out on the “very important role of being a mother to children,” she simply replied, “If you have children, I hope you stay home with them, so your wife can go out and be a great woman.”
