Actress Jill Wagner, known for her role in "Lioness," which premiered its third season on July 9, 2026, is also making personal headlines. She and her husband, David Lemanowicz, a former professional hockey player and U.S. Army Reserve officer, have chosen to build their family life in Tennessee.
Wagner and Lemanowicz's relationship began when they were just 17 years old. After a brief courtship, Lemanowicz moved away, but destiny intervened years later when they unexpectedly met again while on a USO tour in Afghanistan. Their path crossed a third time in Los Angeles, leading to their engagement three months later and their marriage in 2017.
The couple welcomed two daughters, Army Gray in 2020 and Daisy Roberta in 2021. Wagner also helped raise Lemanowicz's daughter from a previous relationship. Reflecting on their journey, Wagner described their love story as something out of a rom-com, a narrative she hopes to one day bring to the big screen.
Wagner recently shared her decision to establish roots on a Tennessee farm, finding the rural setting magical for raising her children. This move marks a new chapter for the family, blending their professional lives with a grounded country existence.
