Meet the Real-Life Partners of the Doctor Odyssey Cast (Including a Couple Who Met Through a Hamilton Alum!)
The ABC medical drama might feature complex romantic storylines, but off-screen, much of the cast has their own love stories.
Joshua Jackson
Joshua Jackson’s character, Dr. Max Bankman, navigates complicated romances in Doctor Odyssey, but off-screen, the actor is currently single.
Jackson was previously married to Jodie Turner-Smith, whom he met in 2018. The couple wed in 2019 and welcomed their daughter, Juno, in 2020. However, in October 2023, Turner-Smith filed for divorce. Since then, Jackson has been linked to actress Lupita Nyong’o, though they later split.
Phillipa Soo & Steven Pasquale
Phillipa Soo plays nurse Avery Morgan, caught in an on-screen love triangle, but in real life, she is happily married to actor Steven Pasquale.
The couple met through Soo’s former Hamilton co-star Jonathan Groff, who set them up on a blind date. They tied the knot on September 24, 2017. Soo has described marrying Pasquale as the “best decision” she ever made, and they continue to share a strong bond.
Sean Teale
Sean Teale, who portrays nurse Tristan Silva, keeps his personal life private. His last known relationship was with Jelly Gould, though he hasn’t posted about her since April 2022.
On Doctor Odyssey, Teale’s character is entangled in a dramatic love triangle. He hinted that while new characters will be introduced, his storyline with Jackson and Soo will remain central to the show’s romantic tension.
Don Johnson & Kelley Phleger
Don Johnson plays Captain Robert Massey, and in real life, he has been married to Kelley Phleger for over two decades.
The couple met in the mid-90s and started dating in 1997. They married in April 1999 and share three children—Atherton Grace, Jasper, and Deacon. Johnson credits their lasting relationship to kindness, trust, and respect, recalling advice he once received from Bob Dylan on love.
From passionate on-screen drama to heartwarming real-life romances, the Doctor Odyssey cast members have their own love stories beyond the screen.
