Cardellini: 13-Year Engagement, Still Planning the Party?
15 Sep
Summary
- Linda Cardellini and fiancé Steven Rodriguez have been engaged for 13 years.
- They met in elementary school and reconnected years later.
- Their lengthy engagement is due to planning a large family celebration.
Linda Cardellini, an Emmy winner for Outstanding Supporting Actress, revealed she and her fiancé, Steven Rodriguez, are uncertain about their wedding plans despite a 13-year engagement. Speaking at the 2026 Emmy Awards, Cardellini stated they have accomplished the major relationship milestones, focusing on 'real stuff' rather than immediate marriage.
The couple shares a 14-year-old daughter, Lilah-Rose. Cardellini, 51, humorously noted that the only remaining item on their agenda is a large party for their extended families, a celebration they've been planning for 16 years.
Cardellini and Rodriguez's connection dates back to childhood; they first met in elementary school when she was 11 and he was 12. However, their romantic relationship began only after they reconnected in adulthood.
