Keeping it quiet. Alexis Bledel and Vincent Kartheiser kept their 10-year relationship pretty under wraps leading up to their August 2022 split.
Us Weekly broke the news in June 2012 that the Gilmore Girls alum had been dating the Day Out of Days actor for “a few months” after meeting on the set of Mad Men in 2011.
One month prior, Bledel spoke out about what it was like working with Kartheiser, telling AMCTV.com that he was “very different” than his onscreen persona. In fact, the Texas native recalled feeling at ease with the actor while filming a sex scene during season 5 of Mad Men.
“I was really nervous. [Vincent] noticed and made it much better for me by just sort of making sure I felt comfortable,” she explained in May 2012. “He kind of helped me take the edge off a little bit just by being nice.”
Kartheiser, for his part, gushed exclusively to Us in October 2012 about his budding romance with the Sisterhood of the Traveling Pants actress.
The Titans alum called himself “a really lucky guy” to have Bledel in his life, noting that it was “hard” for them to make future plans amid their travel and work schedules. That issue included being unable to commit to Halloween plans that same month.
“I don’t even know if we’re going to be in the same city,” Kartheiser confessed. “We haven’t gotten down and dirty with the serious stuff, like couples costuming.”
Less than a year later, a rep confirmed to Us in March 2013 that the pair were engaged. “They couldn’t be happier,” a source exclusively told Us after the proposal. A second insider added, “They are so cute together!”
Shortly after confirming their engagement, Kartheiser gushed to Us once again about being “lucky” with Bledel by his side. The pair, however, kept tight-lipped about their nuptials, which took place in 2014, and their baby boy, whom they welcomed in fall of 2015.
Keeping with their theme of privacy, the twosome surprised fans in August 2022 when the Ultrasound actor filed for divorce from the Handmaid’s Tale alum.
Us exclusively confirmed the split on August 17 of that year, revealing that Kartheiser had filed paperwork with a New York courthouse seven days prior to end their eight-year marriage.

Bledel told AMCTV.com how Kartheiser’s real-life personality differed from his complex Mad Man character, Pete Campbell. “He’s light and funny and has lots of energy on set,” she explained. “He keeps everybody energized as well. Very, very different than Pete.”

“The most important thing, for us, is to make sure that we see each other in the flesh at least once every 10 days,” the Minnesota native exclusively told Us. “All the other stuff is good, like FaceTime and the texting … I love seeing her. You gotta make the flight!”

“I’m a very lucky man. I keep saying ‘girlfriend.’ And then I’m like, ‘I mean, my fiancée!’” Kartheiser exclusively told Us at the Mad Men season 6 Hollywood premiere shortly after Us broke the news that he popped the question.

“We’re doing it together. We haven’t started yet though,” Bledel exclusively told Us of the pair’s wedding plans. She then showed off her round-cut diamond ring, saying, “Vincent picked it out.”

The In Time actor revealed to Vulture that he and Bledel didn’t start dating until after season 5 of Mad Men wrapped filming. “We were completely professional,” he explained. “We never saw each other out. We never — it was nothing, it was just work.”

Kartheiser opened up to Vulture about why he and the Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life actress chose to keep their relationship private. “It’s something I realized about the most important things in my life. If I share them with the world and I open that door to their fuming anger that they need to get out or their adoration that they want to flaunt, it lessens it,” he confessed. ‘It cheapens it. It weakens it. And it’s magical, love, and all of that is … profoundly spiritual, and it just doesn’t feel right.”

The Masterminds actor explained to New York Magazine that his change in style was due to Bledel’s influence. “I still dress like I did in high school. My fiancée bought me all of this,” he said of his dapper outfit. “She’s like, ‘Honestly, another ripped T-shirt? Put this on.’”
