Jim Parsons, known for his role as Sheldon Cooper on The Big Bang Theory, ended up marrying his longtime boyfriend Todd Spiewak. After 15 years together, Parsons decided to legalize their relationship, even though he initially didn’t consider marriage significant. They tied the knot in May 2017 at New York City’s Rainbow Room.
Parsons cherished their bond, comparing it to a divine connection. The wedding took place on the 65th floor of Rockefeller Center and was attended by close friends, family, and fellow cast members from the show. It was a joyous celebration for the couple and their loved ones.
Popular Kids
The cast of The Big Bang Theory differs quite a lot from the geeky characters that they play on the show. As a matter of fact, this is a group of extremely bright and wealthy individuals who have become some of the most successful performers in the history of TV.
So of course, they have dated some pretty attractive people over the last decade or so. So it only stands to reason that we would compile a pretty comprehensive list to see which nerds on the show actually scored a beautiful girl in real life and which stars in the show actually dated in real life.
Mayim Bialik and Michael Stone
Mayim Bialik plays the part of Amy Farrah Fowler, who is a neurobiologist, and Sheldon Cooper’s love interest over the course of the show. The two meet on an online dating site after Raj Koothrappali and Howard Wolowitz see her and think that she will be a good match for Sheldon.
In real life, Mayim Bialik was married to Michael Stone, with the latter converting to Judaism from Mormonism in the name of love. The couple had a Victorian-themed wedding, albeit with traditional Jewish customs. The pair had two children together before divorcing in 2013. The two boys still have two loving parents though.
Johnny Galecki and Sara Gilbert
Johnny Galecki plays one of the main male protagonists, Leonard Hofstadter, who is an experimental physicist. While he is geeky, he also succeeds in winning over attractive women like his neighbor Penny. Of course, they end up going the distance and tying the knot on the show. In real life, Johnny also has a long history of dating.
After working on the show Roseanne, he dated briefly one of his on-screen girlfriends, Sara Gilbert, who also showed up on Big Bang as Leslie Winkle. Eventually, Sara came out of the closet and even had a five-year-long relationship with Linda Perry. We hope Johnny got over her by then!
Simon Helberg and Jocelyn Towne
Simon Helberg plays the iconic Howard Wolowitz, a nerdy aerospace engineer and former astronaut who still lives with his overbearing mother. Eventually, though, he gets married to the sweet Bernadette. In real life, Simon married Jocelyn Towne in 2007. Jocelyn is also an actress and has acted in minor roles in movies and television since 2000.
The two even worked on a film together called We’ll Never Have Paris in which Simon starred as the lead and Jocelyn produced it. The happy couple have two children together, a daughter named Adeline who is five years old, and a son named Wilder who is three.
