In August 2020, People confirmed that the actress and the comedian were dating and “happy." That December, they made headlines after it was confirmed that Trevor bought a $27.5-million mansion in Los Angeles.

As per People, the couple is “making plans for a future together,” which is why they allegedly moved together into the 11,000-square-foot, six-bedroom, 12-bathroom home in Bel-Air.

DONALD FAISON

“Scrubs” actor Donald Faison divorced his first wife, Lisa Askey, in 2005. About a year before, Minka Kelly and “Ray Donovan” actor Brian White had parted ways, so the timing was perfect for Kelly and Faison to date.

Although they were spotted attending a few events together, their relationship didn’t stand the test of time. They parted ways circa 2007, shortly before Faison met his current wife, CaCee Cobb.

JOHN MAYER

Singer-songwriter John Mayer was Minka Kelly’s boyfriend in 2007, as well. However, their romance was short-lived, and they amicably parted ways later that December.

Shortly after their split, Kelly showed support for him at a concert in Los Angeles and even went with him to the after-party. Days later, they were spotted having breakfast in Los Angeles and drinks in West Hollywood.
