Was Married To Actress Lena Headey Until 2019

As of now, Dan Cadan is living a single happy life and is also enjoying the fatherhood of one baby. But he was previously in a marital relationship with English actress Lena Headey. She is famous for portraying the main role of Cersei Lannister on the HBO fantasy drama series Game of Thrones from 2011 to 2019.

The former spouses had known each other from their early days as they were reportedly childhood friends. But they started dating in around 2015 after working together on Cadan's directed short film The Devil's Wedding. 

Private Nuptials In 2018

During that dating period, the film actor Dan remained fully supported her when he was sinking into trouble following her divorce from her first husband. However, the romance between them ended up changing their mind. 

Cadan finally popped the question in the spring of 2017 after dating for two years. And the lovebirds wed in 2018, almost a year later, as per some sources. Most interestingly, before tying the knot, the couple already had one daughter Teddy Cadan, born on 10 July 2015. 

But no one knew who Teddy's dad was until The New York Times declared that he was the father on July 5, 2017. Unfortunately, they ended their union in June 2019 after being together for over four years.

Wife, Lena's First Marriage

Headey had previously been married to her first husband, Peter Paul Loughran. He is a British musician, photographer, and hairstylist. They first met at their close friend's wedding party, where they had a dance together.

The actress later stated that it was a love a first sight as she was very serious from the starting. After dating for a while, the lovebirds exchanged the wedding vows on May 19, 2007, in a hush-hush ceremony among their loved ones. After three years of mating, they gave birth together to their son Wylie Elliot Loughran, on March 31, 2010.

But suddenly their marital relationship went sour, and they announced their separation in 2011. She filed a divorce petition on 20 July 2012 in the Los Angeles County Superior Court, citing irreconcilable differences. And they ended their five years of conjugality on 26 December 2013, following their nasty custody battle of a son. 

Actress Lena also dated her Game of Thrones co-star Pedro Pascal from 2014-2017.

Lena's Current Relationship Status

After parting ways with Dan, Lena Headey started dating a fellow American actor Marc Menchaca. Marc is popular in the American entertainment industry for his role as Russ Langmore in the Ozark TV series.

The couple initially met each other in 2020 and soon started dating each other after knowing each other for a while. The romantic duo tied the knot in a private wedding ceremony on October 6, 2022.

As of now, Lena and Marc share a healthy married bond, and they show no sign of separation in the near future.
