Tom Sizemore's former wife is now poised for her second wedding, which is said to be coming in the summer. The actor has had a couple of romantic links after things went south with his ex, but nothing substantial enough to have him walking down the aisle again.

Tom Sizemore married Maeve Quinlan on September 1, 1996, and they remained together until their divorce on November 19, 1999. They did not have any children together, but as fate would have it, they both went on to become parents in their own right, although Maeve does not have any of her own.

Maeve teased an upcoming wedding on social media, as she's already engaged with her non-celebrity fiance. Her ex-husband's life does not reflect the same optimism as of late, as he is currently fighting to stay alive in a Los Angeles hospital.

Tom Sizemore's Ex-Wife Is an Experienced Actress & Is Still in the Industry

Maeve was not an actress from the get-go. She began playing tennis professionally at age 16 and went on to play at significant competitions before peaking at 95 in the world tennis rankings. While studying at the University of Southern California, she was a Kappa Alpha sorority house member.

She majored in theatre and political science while her Bachelor of Arts degree at California University. It wasn't until she graduated and played at the French Open and Virginia Slims Tour that her drama professor advised her to quit playing tennis to focus all her attention on acting—a power move considering how her acting career played out.

She began with a few supporting roles in projects like 1999's "The Florentine" with her ex-husband and "Play It to the Bone" with 62-year-old actor Antonio Banderas. She then starred in "Totally Blonde" in 2001. Quinlan got her first lead role in "Ken Park" and was cast in "Criminal," a 2005 movie starring Alison Dickey's husband, John C. Reilly.

The couple is seemingly lovers of adventure, and the actress shares some memorable moments on social media. They celebrated Halloween 2022 together at an event hosted by Maeve's publicist. She holds her new lover in an extraordinary place in her heart, calling him her "ride or die" in the caption of a selfie she posted in March 2021.

They keep their spark alive with date nights like the one they had in January last year. Hair colorist Justine Beech did Maeve's hair at Umberto Beverly Hills for the romantic occasion. Justine responded to the actress's appreciative message on Instagram, saying she loved seeing them in LA.

Maeve Doesn't Have Kids but Is a Proud Mother Figure to Her Partner's Children

Although Maeve has no children, she displays motherly qualities in her relationship with Dereck's children. She spent Father's Day 2020 with her fiance and his sons and mentioned that one of them, Davis, turned 16 that weekend, adding to her celebrations with the boys and "the GREATEST father ever."

The actress and her husband-to-be had a very eventful 2022 together. "So much to be grateful for this year," she said in the caption of a Thanksgiving post with Dereck and his children. They took the boys to a University of South Carolina family weekend game, and the actress, who is also an alum of the faculty, hinted they would return this year.

After spending Christmas as a family last year, the couple ended the year with a daytime date for two. They headed downtown Chicago to grasp the Christmas spirit in the snowy air. They visited two of their favorite places: the Ralph Lauren store and a Butch McGuire's outlet, judging by their Instagram photos.

Maeve's ex-husband, Tom, did go on to become a father after their split. He dated Heidi Fliess the year after the divorce in 1999, but that union did not last long either and saw its end in 2002. He welcomed a set of twins named Jayden Sizemore and Jagger Sizemore in July 2005 with Janelle McIntire.

Still, the actor and Janelle did not wed in their three-year relationship from 2003 to 2006. Despite being the sons of famous actors, there has been limited coverage of the twins' lives since their parents split. He was linked with Maxine Entwistle, but there have been no further links or developments in his love life, or at least publicly.
