Actress Kristin Chenoweth is unmarried and child-free at 55: All the deets here!
Known for her extensive television and theatre credits, Kristin Chenoweth is a critically acclaimed actress. Also recognized for her trademark vocals, Chenoweth also has a stellar stint going on in the music industry. Before bursting on the screen with her own sitcom, Kristin, she had carved a distinguished profile in theatre.
Chenoweth's best-known Broadway work includes Steel Pier, You're a Good Man, Charlie Brown, Wicked, and Promises, Promises. Born on July 24, 1968, in Broken Arrow, Oklahoma, Chenoweth recently commemorated her 55th birthday. The Emmy and Tony-winning actress has never been married but she does boast a long, star-studded romantic history.
Kristin Chenoweth is Engaged!
A late bloomer? Chenoweth has never been married in her 55 years on Earth. The acclaimed actress has had her share of romances and bitter experiences in the past, but as it turns out, Chenoweth didn't give up on finding the one. The Tony-winning actress is engaged to musician Josh Bryant.
In fact, it has been quite a while since the pair got engaged, and understandably, fans are starting to assume that perhaps troubles have knocked on the duo's paradise. The Bewitched actress first met Bryant in 2016, at her niece's wedding, where Bryant was performing with his band, Backroad Anthem.
The meet-cute led the duo down the road of friendship and two years later, Chenoweth and Bryant found themselves romantically involved. Chenoweth and Bryant kept it on the low and slow until the pandemic brought the pair closer. Like a legion of locked couples, the Emmy-winning actress also found herself visualizing a promising future with Bryant, who proposed to Kristin in October 2021.
"Guess you're stuck with me now, @joshbguitar. I love you and I’m never letting you go. A million times yes" wrote Chenoweth, who is 14 years older than Josh. Despite getting engaged after the pandemic, Chenoweth and Bryant have already postponed their wedding a number of times.

Last year, the Wicked actress blamed it on their busy careers, and earlier this year, Chenoweth explained that they are struggling "over logistics due to her big family." The long-engaged couple recently enjoyed a cozy date night on Broadway, asserting that all is good in their paradise.
Inside Kristin Chenoweth's Dating History!
Chenoweth has dated a long list of notable names, starting with the Academy-nominated producer, Dana Brunetti, who Kristin dated for a year in 2014. The couple made their red-carpet debut at the 2014 Golden Globes and by the next Golden Globes, the lovers-turned-exes were already shading each other on Twitter.
A source revealed both Chenoweth and Brunetti were too busy in their work to have a healthy relationship. Following a brief romance with actor Seth Green, which started and ended with no media exposure, whatsoever, Chenoweth started dating actor Lane Garrison, followed by another low-profile romance with Jewish actor Marc Kudisch, with whom Chenoweth even got engaged.
The Emmy-winning actress and Kudisch were engaged from 1998 to 2001. The reason behind the duo's split was never revealed but it seemed Chenoweth and Kudisch ended things on a good note as the pair worked on a few projects, including their 2006 musical, The Apple Tree.
The West Wing actress's most famous relationship was with Oscar-winning writer Aaron Sorkin, who she started dating in 2005. Sorkin had just ended his marriage with Julia Bingham and Chenoweth was single and ready to mingle.
During their 3-year-long on-and-off romance, Chenoweth became Sorkin's muse as he based the character of Harriet in his series, Studio 60 on the Sunset Strip, on Kristin. The duo had called it quits for good by 2009. In her memoir, A Little Bit Wicked, Kristin writes about her love for the Oscar winner.
"Whatever happens or doesn't happen between us in the long run, I always will," the line read. Before going official with Josh, the Emmy winner shared her perspective on relationships.
"Relationships need to be developed like flowers need to be watered," the Wicked actress said in a rare comment about her love life. She added, "I have not been great at that part of the balance, so I would like to learn to make the time for that special someone."
