With occasional cross-overs between other popular Chicago based dramas, including "Chicago P.D." and "Chicago Fire," there is never a shortage of twists and turns in the storyline of "Chicago Med."

Several original cast members are still on board, and their onscreen romances continue to evolve. In real life, however, their relationships are rather different, for some, at least.

Brian Tee as Ethan Choi

This actor has been happily married for many years. Brian is one of those celebrities who rarely share the details of their private lives. We know that he's married to Mirelly Taylor, and in 2015 they welcomed their daughter, Madelyn Skyler.

The parents were so happy that they shared the news with the whole world, sharing some exclusive pictures with PEOPLE magazine, and gushed:

"So Madelyn Skyler was born and is the magical miracle of our lives.”

When their daughter was just 10 weeks old, the actor revealed that he feels as if she's an old soul, and he even surprised himself when he fell in love with Madelyn at first sight after her birth.

Yaya DaCosta as April Sexton

Yaya, just like her character, went through a lot of unpleasant events in her life. In 2012 the actress allegedly married independent film producer and director Joshua Bee Alafia.

A year after they welcomed their son, Sankara, the couple suddenly broke up three years into their marriage, but Yaya tells a different story. She admitted that Alafia had never been her real husband and said:

“I never talk about my personal life, it’s hard to dispel rumors. But no, I never got divorced because I was never married, first of all.”

According to her, she broke it off with her ex right after her son's birth because it was "an enlightening experience." The reason for their break-up became known a little bit later, and the two didn't remain friends.

At the end of 2018, the actress reportedly revealed that they lived in separate rooms for months but still shared the same house as they were expecting their child.

Torrey DeVitto as Natalie Manning

This actress's private life is no less complicated than her character's. Way back in 2007, Torrey met her husband, Paul Wesley, on the set of "Killer Movie." 4 years later, the couple got married, but it didn't last.

Paul and Torrey were working in different parts of the continent, which was difficult for both of them. So, when DeVitto landed a small role in "The Vampire Diaries," her husband was happy.

However, 2 years later, the couple broke up for unknown reasons, having said that they remain good friends.

Then Torrey dated Rick Glassman, but the rumor was that the distance wasn't in her favor either, and the couple broke up a year after their relationship started.

DeVitto was working in Chicago, while Glassman was in LA, and there wasn't enough time for them to see each other.

A few months after their break-up, the actress was spotted with the professional "Dancing with the Stars" dancer Artem Chigvintsev, but again distance reportedly got in the way, and they split as well.

The actress found her next partner in Chicago. Jesse Lee Soffer acts as Jay Halstead in "Chicago P.D." and keeps popping up in "Chicago Med," and they started dating in 2018.

However, this relationship was also over quite soon, 8 months after the couple announced their break-up. In October 2020, Torrey confirmed her romance with the "Blue Bloods" star, Will Estes.

Nick Gehlfuss as Will Halstead

This actor's love life is not as complicated, and he is happily married to Lilian Matsuda. They knew each other before Nick's stardom when they and ate macaroni together 4 times a week.

Meeting Lilian changed his life completely, as she helped him emotionally and financially through the most difficult moments of his life.

The two secretly got married in Ohio without saying a word to their colleagues. The ceremony took place on Friday the 13th in 2016, and even though some might see it as a bad sign, to Nick meant nothing.

Colin Donnell as Connor Rhodes

Colin Donnell is a happily married man. Patti Murin and the actor started dating when working on a theatrical drama, "Love's Labour's Lost" together.

A year later, they got engaged, and a year after that, they got married at a very interesting ceremony. Patti is a great fan of the shows "The Bachelor" and "The Bachelorette."

Patti had a lifelong dream of having her own rose ceremony. Of course, Colin supported his love and organized a ceremony in the show's style.

In February 2020, the happy couple shared the wonderful news that they are expecting their firstborn. Five months later, Colin shared that Patti gave birth to their healthy baby girl and wrote:

"Welcome to the world Cecily Philips Donnell, born July 14th. Our hearts are simply overflowing and I’m in awe."

Marlyne Barrett as Maggie Lockwood

The actress is portraying a nurse in the show, but Marlyne Barrett also studied to be one too! However, according to Marlyne, it didn't help her with her work in the medical show.

Marlyne studied medicine in French, and that's why she doesn't understand any terms in English. Despite her studies, Marlyne dreamt of becoming an actress. And she did!

She is a happily married woman who credits her happiness to her husband, Pastor Gavin Barrett, even though she claims to be as "wild as you're going to get."

This actor is probably the most titled one among all the show's cast members. Besides his acting career, he's known to his fans for his theatrical roles.

However, after Oliver got a big family, he started accepting more and more TV and film roles but never lost his love for theater.

Oliver and his wife, Camilla, have been married for three decades, and they are still going strong, raising their three children. Committed to fatherhood, Oliver has a standing open ticket to fly home in case of emergency.
