Yellowjackets focuses on a team of high school soccer players who end up stranded in the Canadian wilderness after a plane crash. The Showtime series follows the survivors amid the crisis and 20 years after their rescue as they continue to deal with the fallout — including in their personal lives.
In real life, Melanie Lynskey, Juliette Lewis and more cast members have managed to find love before appearing on the show, which premiered in December 2021.
Christina Ricci, for her part, made headlines for her romance with James Heerdegen, whom she met while working on the ABC series Pan Am. In February 2012, Us Weekly revealed that the duo were officially dating. Us broke the news one year later of Ricci and Heerdegen’s engagement.
Following the twosome’s wedding later that year, they welcomed son Freddie in 2014. In June 2020, Us confirmed that Ricci obtained an emergency protective order against Heerdegen. One month later, she filed for divorce.
Heerdegen was later ordered by a judge to stay 100 yards away from Ricci and stripped of visitation rights with Freddie and their dog after he was accused of domestic violence by his estranged wife. In court documents obtained by Us in January 2021, Ricci claimed that the abuse started in 2013 and escalated in 2020 amid the coronavirus pandemic.
In April 2021, the film producer was granted visitation rights, while Ricci has sole legal custody of their only child together.
The Sleepy Hollow star moved on with Mark Hampton and made their relationship Instagram official three month later. Ricci and Hampton tied the knot in October 2021 and welcomed a daughter two months later.
