Owain Yeoman Used to Be Married to 'The Office' Star Lucy Davis

On December 9, 2006, Owain walked down the aisle with Lucy at St. Paul's Cathedral in London. They had met earlier that year through Patrick Baladi, her co-star in "The Office," a series she starred alongside Ricky Gervais, Martin Freeman, and others.

The couple had only been together for six months before he asked her father for her hand in marriage in June of the same year. Unfortunately, they separated in January 2011 and filed for divorce at the Los Angeles County Superior Court in early October 2011.

According to several reports, their marriage began having troubles in 2008. After their divorce, the actress disclosed that she had read several harsh comments from people who believed Owain was more good-looking than she was, so he deserved better.

Despite the harsh comments, Lucy, who began acting in 1993, did not take the statements to heart and has continued to grace the screens, giving fans her best performances.

She has since acted in "The Neighbors," "Gay of Thrones," "Death in Paradise," "Maron," "Chilling Adventures of Sabrina," "The Villains of Valley View," alongside Gal Gadot in the "Wonder Woman" movies and more.
