Michelle Williams’ love life has been a topic of conversation since the start of her career.
The actress made her TV debut on Baywatch in 1993 and struck up a romance with costar Jeremy Jackson. They managed to keep their relationship under wraps for nearly two decades, with Jackson revealing that Williams was his “first crush” during a 2011 interview.
Williams’ most high-profile relationship started in 2004 with Heath Ledger, who played her husband in Brokeback Mountain. Their love story began on set before the pair welcomed their daughter, Matilda, in 2005. (Ledger died from an accidental drug overdose at age 28 in 2008.)
Following Ledger’s death, Williams moved on with some notable partners including Spike Jonze, Cary Joji Fukunaga, Jason Segel, Dustin Yellin, Jonathan Safran Foer and Andrew Youmans.
Williams married Phil Elverum in 2018, but the pair split the following year. She later married Thomas Kail, with whom she shares three kids.
