Oct 13, 2023 by apost team

Helen Hunt is a renowned actress known for her film, television, and theater roles. She has won numerous awards, including an Academy Award for Best Actress for her performance in the 1997 film “As Good as It Gets.” With a career spanning over four decades, Hunt has established herself as a versatile actress capable of portraying complex characters with ease. Hunt started her career as a child actor, appearing in television shows including “The Swiss Family Robinson” and “The Facts of Life.” 

For her role in “Mad About You,” which aired from 1992 to 1999, Hunt won four consecutive Primetime Emmy Awards for Outstanding Lead Actress in a Comedy Series, cementing her status as one of the most talented actresses in television.

She has also garnered kudos from fans who have come to love her pared-down style in which she’s not afraid to look her age. Hunt showed off her natural beauty – wrinkles and all – with a car selfie on the way to the season 2 premiere of “Blindspotting” in April 2023. Fans loved her classy visage and praised her in the comments for keeping it real at 60.

“Thank you for looking real, authentic, and gorgeous!!” one comment read. Another fan gushed, “Aging is a beautiful thing and so are you!”

Although she faced speculation about having undergone cosmetic surgery after being involved in a car accident in October 2019, the rumors appear unfounded, and Hunt continues to radiate a natural and healthy glow.

She received adulation from fans once again on Oct. 5, 2023, when she showed off her beau officially at the Los Angeles Philharmonic’s 20th Anniversary Gala in honor of Frank Gehry. Keep reading for the details. 

Hunt appeared to fly under the radar for a few years at the height of her stardom to focus on her family. She was married to actor Hank Azaria, but they divorced after a year of marriage. She then dated producer Matthew Carnahan, with whom she shares one daughter, Makena Lei Carnahan, 18. The couple split in 2017.

In September 2022, Hunt addressed the mystery of her “disappearance” from Hollywood. She told The Guardian:

“I wrote and directed two movies and starred in them and had a baby. So yeah, I don’t know what to say when people say: ‘What happened?’ That’s a lot. You know, for me, that’s plenty.”

She also told the outlet she wasn’t particularly bothered by the notion that the work she puts in as a mother isn’t as valued by society as how high her star is in Hollywood.

“I’ve been so in deep, deep love and care of this human being that I’ve gotten to mother that I really haven’t been paying attention to what people think about that,” she explained.

She also told People that she had no regrets about stepping away from the limelight to “get a life” after becoming a mom. 

“I fell in love, I had a daughter. It was hard to find a part that was as interesting as watching her grow up,” she said. 

She added, “Why go off and pretend to be someone’s mother, or pretend to be someone’s wife, when I finally had the chance to have that experience in my real life?”

After her relationship with Carnahan ended, the actress found love with former attorney-turned-professional photographer Steven Tepper. Also, in October 2023, she made her relationship with actor Jeffrey Nordling red carpet official, which has excited fans of the couple.

Hunt made her relationship with Nordling clear on Oct. 5, 2023, when they turned up on the red carpet holding hands. The love birds were at the Los Angeles Philharmonic’s 20th Anniversary Gala, which was held to honor Frank Gehry at LA’s Walt Disney Concert Hall.

Hunt wore a black fitted halter-neck midi dress and black strappy heels, while Nordling wore an all-black suit over a patterned shirt and matching shoes. They held hands and smiled for the cameras as they prepared to enjoy an evening of fun. 

Dedicated fans have previously seen the pair together more than once, as they have posted pictures of themselves on their Instagram pages. Both actors appear to be avid baseball fans and sometimes take pictures in stadiums during games. 

In May 2022, Nordling posted an image of himself and Hunt at Dodger Stadium with a group that included Camryn Manheim and Billie Jean King. Hunt also shared a picture with fans on Oct. 8, 2023, three days after her and Nordling’s outing. Hunt, Nordling, and two other men posed in the photo. 

“Here we are at Dodger Stadium, just before game 1. We were younger then,” Hunt captioned her post. 

Fans took to Nordling’s post to adore the pair. 

“Who is the guy with you?” someone asked. 

Another curious fan commented, “I didn’t know you dated Helen Hunt. Happy for you.”

A third fan wrote, “What a gorgeous couple.”

Another person said of Nordling, “Helen who are you with? He has such shiny eyes. I don’t know who he is.”

“You two look so beautiful together! It makes me smile to see you together. ❤️❤️,” another fan remarked.
