Julia Stiles' Husband: The Actress's Marriage to Preston J. Cook and past Flames

Julia Stiles' dating life has often revolved on or around her different projects, which include a rumored 'secret' romance on a '90s classic and a long-term relationship with a future "Stranger Things" fan favorite. But she saved the last dance for Preston Cook.

Preston Cook, Julia Stiles' husband and the father of her two children keeps a low profile in Hollywood, hardly ever walking the red carpet with his famous wife. He also does not have a social media presence.

Work has not only led to their meeting; the actress and her hubby have had the opportunity to spend time in exotic locals on production's dime. The star made a light-hearted joke surrounding the circumstances of their union in her social media wedding announcement.

Julia Stiles Dated Several Famous Actors in the past - from Joseph Gordon-Levitt to David Harbour

Heath Ledger and Stiles' chemistry on "10 Things I Hate About You" was an act for the cameras, and so was her on-screen indifference to Joseph Gordon-Levitt's character, Cameron James.

Director Gil Junger spilled on a YouTube chat show that Stiles' and her fellow child star had a secret romance while making the teen rom-com.

The director claimed that during Stiles' reading of the "10 Things I Hate About You" poem, the actress thought about the man she was actually "in love" with, Gordon-Levitt. Neither co-star has confirmed or denied their romance while making the modern retelling of William Shakespeare's "Taming of the Shrew."

On the eve of the film's 20th anniversary, the actress told Us Weekly that she still has contact with the writers, her movie sister Larisa Oleynik, and David Krumholtz. Stiles did not mention Gordon-Levitt.

The "Hustlers" actress and David Harbour had frequent PDA-filled red-carpet showings.

The New Yorker was briefly linked to co-star Josh Harnett when they made the 2001 film "O," another update of a Shakespeare play, and Luke Mably while they made "The Prince and Me."

Stiles was in a two-year relationship with artist Jonathan Cramer before her time on "Dexter" in 2010. The timing of her being on the show's fifth season and her scene partner Michael C. Hall's divorce from Jennifer Carpenter sparked rumors that she contributed to the demise of their marriage.

She refuted the reports. In a statement to a tabloid, the star stated that she and Hall are merely good friends and "enjoyed working together."

Details about Stiles' last known boyfriend before she met her future husband, Preston J. Cook, are remarkably vague. The "Hustlers" actress and David Harbour had frequent PDA-filled red-carpet showings during their public courtship of around four years but did not discuss the relationship in interviews. They co-starred in 2012's "Between Us."

Julia Stiles Finally Tied the Knot with Preston J. Cook in 2017

Stiles took her time walking down the aisle. Eight months pregnant with her first son, she playfully captioned the first image from her beach wedding, "Who doesn't love a shotgun wedding?"

In the photo, Cook's wedding band glistens in the sun with his hand on her pregnant belly. The September 2017 ceremony occurred in Seattle, Washington, over Labor Day weekend.

Cook, a camera assistant and former actor, and the Hollywood star met on the set of their 2015 movie, "Blackway." Originally titled "Go with Me," Stiles stars opposite Anthony Hopkins and Ray Liotta.

After filming wrapped on the thriller in which Cook was a second camera assistant, the couple started dating. Stiles accepted his Christmas Eve marriage proposal during a vacation with his "entire family" in Columbia over the holidays in 2015.

She celebrated their wedding anniversary on Instagram in 2000 with fake amazement that they still hadn't "killed each other," as they have been in five countries together and had experienced two quarantines in their three years of marriage.

Cook entered the entertainment industry with a small part in the horror-fantasy TV film "Strange Frequency" in 2001 and had guest spots on shows like "The 4400," "Stargate SG-1" and "Smallville."

Cook had a recurring role as James over the six seasons of "The L Word," making his last acting appearance in 2012, an uncredited part in "Underworld: Awakening."

The performer moved behind the scenes on the 2011 short film "Greasy Soul" and worked in the camera department on projects like "Love It or List It Vancouver," "Big Eyes," and "Deadpool."

Stiles felt very lucky to hang out with her partner in French Côte d'Azur when they both worked on the series "Riviera," and they have also shared a set on "Jason Bourne," and "Brahms: The Boy II."

Julia Stiles and Preston J. Cook Welcomed Two Children Together

Strummer Newcomb Cook took his first breath on October 20, 2017, in Manhattan. Stiles posted a photo of the newborn holding his dad's thumb two days later.

The actress thanked the doctors, nurses, and staff of the Mount Sinai Hospital in New York for "helping to bring this utter joy" into their lives.

The couple introduced the "newest addition" to their family, Arlo Cook, in the last week of January 2022. The actress shared a sweet photo of the baby's feet and a second of her four-year-old's reaction to becoming a big brother.

The toddler vandalized a once pristine white toilet seat with a red marker and drew a face of a pensive-looking man on the cover of the tank, creatively pasting a cut-out beard and mouth under the nose.

The lack of credits on the "Deadpool" camera assistant's IMDb profile, his last gig was in 2020, might suggest he is a stay-at-home dad for the time being.

Julia Stiles' children have not impacted her schedule too much, with new episodes of "Dragons: The Nine Realms," coming out in 2022, as well as "Orphan: First Kill" and "The Lake."
