Patrick Wilson Met His Wife Dagmara Dominczyk at College
Dominczyk and Patrick Wilson met at Carnegie-Mellon University in Pittsburgh while overlapping as drama majors (much like Hollywood couple Tom Hanks and Rita Wilson, who are college sweethearts). But they later lost contact after graduating.
However, the duo reconnected in 2004 and walked down the aisle a year later in June 2005. They have been married for seventeen years, which is rare in Hollywood.

Dominczyk has even found herself taking on her husband's admirers. When Wilson appeared in a graphic sex scene in the HBO series "Girls," one fan tweeted that a man like him would never go for a non-supermodel like Lena Dunham, who has been body-shamed. Dominczyk replied:
"Funny, his wife is a size 10, muffin top & all, & he does her just fine."
Of the debacle, Wilson said he was "incredibly proud" of his wife. The lovebirds seem happy together, judging by his social media uploads.

That same year, he posted a snap of the duo rocking matching black outfits. Fast forward to July 2021, Wilson paid a birthday tribute to his spouse on Instagram alongside a selfie of the pair smiling.
