Mae Whitman stars as “Lindsay” in Hulu’s new musical series Up Here, who falls in love with a lost financier named Miguel (played by Carlos Valdes). The two navigate the dangerous world of memories, obsessions, fears, and fantasies that live inside their heads, and discover that their biggest obstacle to finding happiness together may just be themselves!
But that’s just on screen. What about Mae Whitman’s real life? Does the actress have a husband? Or is she even married? Find out as you scroll down.
Mae Whitman’s Husband: Is This Actress Married?
No, as of 2023, Mae Whitman is still not married. This means she doesn’t have a husband. However, it was rumored that she was dating Dov Tiefenbach at the time (which we’ll discuss more below).
Guess the actress still has a lot to do before she retires completely. Or maybe she’s just too busy and doesn’t have time to think about her husband.
Last we checked, Mae was starring as “Lindsay” in Up Here alongside her on-screen boyfriend Carlos Valdes. The show is based on Kristen Anderson-Lopez and Robert Lopez, a super-successful musical couple in a romantic relationship.
Mae Whitman Relationship Status
Mae Whitman is rumored to be dating Canadian actor Dov Tiefenbach. However, as of this writing, no concrete information has been provided to substantiate this rumor.
In fact, Mae and Dov have been rumored to have been dating since 2008. But there have been reports that Mae has had a few other romantic relationships in between. Confusingly, a 2019 Ranker article suggested that they were in a relationship and may have been together since 2008.
Her rumored boyfriend, Dov was born on December 8, 1981, in Toronto, Ontario, Canada. Acting since the age of 12, he finally got his breakthrough role as Josh Avery in the television series RoboCop (1994). Then, the following year, he starred as Murray Murray in the short film Love Child (1995) alongside actress Neve Campbell and became famous.
Mae Whitman’s Dating History
Dov Tiefenbach was Mae Whitman’s first rumored boyfriend.
Then there’s musician Landon Pigg, whom the actress dated while filming Parenthood. In an interview with Glamour, Mae admitted that they were still together when Landon appeared in Season 3, Episode 10, which aired in 2011. But she never revealed why or when they broke up.
According to her, “Actually my ex-boyfriend Landon was [Parenthood] a year. He was my boyfriend at the time, and he came on Luncheonette to record because he was a musician.”
The exes are still on good terms. “We’re still very good friends. He’s actually helped me write all the songs that I’ve sung on the show so far. Having him on the show is pretty special,” she said.
After Landon, Mae was later rumored to have hooked up with Miles Heizer. But that was just fan action! However, it was the duo (who co-starred on six seasons of Parenthood) who started the fire. At the time, Mae and Miles both posted IG posts, captioned, “13 years and we still can’t keep our hands off each other” and “some things last a long time,” respectively.
Sadly, these two are just good friends in real life and those photos were just a joke for their followers.
Now, for those who don’t know, Mae is pansexual. The Up Here star has been vocal on Twitter about the importance of queer representation in Disney’s Owl House.
“Just taking a moment to say I am SO proud to be a small part of a show like The Owl House. As a pansexual, I wish I had amazing characters like Amity and Luz in my life when I was a kid. Gay representation is so important 🙂 keep it up world,” she wrote.
The actress even emphasized the meaning of pansexual, “I know people may not be familiar with what pansexual means; for me, it means I know I can love people of all genders.”
However, despite being attracted to both girls and boys, she has never had a same-sex relationship until 2023.
