Taylor Novack Had a Brief Marriage with the Actor

In September 2012, Novack and her ex-husband exchanged vows, celebrating their love with family and friends at an intimate ceremony held at a private Cave Creek, Arizona residence. Novack's then-partner said at their union:

"It was an amazing day. Unbelievably beautiful. It was great having our families come together to share it with us."

The TV star popped the question to Novack in August 2011 while they were on vacation in Orlando, Florida. However, as fate would have it, their marital bliss took an unexpected twist. In December 2015, it was reported that the couple had separated and had their marriage annulled the previous year.

Novack's ex said their breakup happened too soon, but he recognized that their decision to part ways ultimately became the best choice for both of them.

Novack's ex-husband and his new girlfriend welcomed their son, Dawson, on August 30, 2023.

Novack's ex-husband would later meet actress Courtney Hope, who gained fame as the character Sally Spectra in CBS's series "The Bold and the Beautiful" and "The Young and the Restless."

After five years of dating, Taylor's former husband eventually tied the knot with Hope in October 2021. Duell and Hope's special day was unique, as they had a red-themed outdoor wedding in Malibu, California.

Hope donned a red gown that matched Duell's embroidered tuxedo. The newlyweds at the time were in good spirits with their valued guests and family as they danced to upbeat music.

Hope and her new husband shared several photos on their Instagram pages, but these images are no longer available. Just two months after their wedding Duell and his second wife quietly parted ways.

The cause of the couple's split remained undisclosed, but during a 2022 interview with Maurice Benard, Duell spoke warmly of his second ex-wife and said they were "on good terms."

Novack's then-husband also expressed his respect for Hope and chose not to delve into the complexities of their situation. He highlighted her as an incredible person, both in terms of her character and her role as a dog mom.
