Penn Badgley and Domino Kirke's Relationship Timeline

Penn Badgley and Domino Kirke found their happily ever after — and even celebrated it with two wedding ceremonies. Badgley and Kirke initially sparked romance rumors in 2014. Four years later, the doula admitted that their early relationship didn't feel too serious. “I was sort of getting used to being a single mom, maybe a little too used to it. I had a really good thing with my kid and we were like this little team. Penn and I were dating, but it wasn’t nearly as serious as it is now, of course," Kirke, who shares son Cassius with ex Morgan O’Kane, told Hey Mama in 2018. "I didn’t think marriage was in the cards for us. So I was sort of just chugging along, surviving and getting through the days, and I think the difference now is that I’m really living.” The couple, who tied the knot twice in 2017, announced that they were expecting their first child together three years later. “On the road again,” the musician captioned a close-up photo of her baby bump via Instagram in February 2020. “Pregnancy after loss is a whole other thing. After two miscarriages in a row, we were ready to call it. I stopped trusting my body and started to accept the fact that I was done. As a birth attendant, I’ve seen and heard it all. It takes everything I’ve got to detach lovingly from the losses I’ve been present for and be in my own experience.” Scroll down to relive the romance between Badgley and Kirke:

Us confirmed Badgley and Kirke's romance after they were spotted together in New York, with a source noting at the time, "They have a number of mutual friends. It is a very mature and free relationship. Domino is a great girl for him, being a musician. Their interests align."

"You only get married twice, once I love you @pennbadgley," Kirke captioned a since-deleted shot of the You star following their second wedding ceremony in June 2017.

During an interview with Hey Mama in 2018, the U.K. native revealed why the pair decided to have two weddings, saying, "My first wedding was more of a civil ceremony with about 40 people that was able to join us in a pinch. The second one was more planned. 200 people came from all over the world. It just felt necessary to have both."

“Happy birthday, Dom,” Badgley captioned an Instagram tribute for his wife. “A super-brief review of your invisible qualities: A truly radiant soul, you seem to spark alight almost everyone you meet, like a 99% success rate. It’s really impressive, and quite mysterious. You encourage others to be honest, and brave, and gentle, and expansive. Your great capacity for empathy is obvious, something anyone can get warm by like a glowing stove. Your desire to be of service to others is miraculous. It is in your DNA. In pictures as a very young child, you exude it—a great care and sweetness; an invitation.”

He added: “You make others happy by you. For me, it is a joy to witness you when you are happy. For you, I always hope to be a source of joy. I’m really glad we’re married.”

The singer confirmed that she was expecting a baby with the Easy A star after suffering multiple pregnancy losses.

During a conversation with former costar Chace Crawford, Badgley revealed that the last time he watched Gossip Girl was with his wife.

“It would be very interesting to watch it now,” he explained in an “Actors on Actors” interview for Variety in June 2020. “I watched with my wife, with Domino, before we got married. It must’ve been six months after we met. She had never seen it, and that’s the last time I can remember seeing an episode.”

Kirke announced via Instagram that the duo had welcomed their first child together, writing, "His heart shaped home ❣️ #40dayspostpartum." She also shared an Instagram Story of her newborn on the bed with her.

Kirke opened up about how the couple handles the actor's high level of fame. 

"The best parts are watching the way he organizes it all," she quipped during an episode of the “Podcrushed” podcast, which Badgley cohosts. "The risky run with being with someone in the public eye is that they really take a lot from being recognized and needing and wanting that recognition. It's their fuel, needing that kind of validation."

The London native noted, however, that Badgley sometimes needs assistance in keeping a low profile. 

"Penn is very graceful when it comes to that part of his career, like living in New York City where literally we're inundated every time we walk down the street," she explained. "Sometimes it's like ‘Penn, you're famous. Can you please put some glasses on? Or a hat or something?'"

“I asked [the creator of the show] Sera Gamble, 'Can I just do no more intimacy scenes?' This is actually a decision I’d made before I took the show," the Netflix star shared on an episode of his "Podcrushed" podcast. "I don’t think I’ve ever mentioned it publicly, but one of the main things was, like, do I want to put myself back on a career path where I’m just always the romantic lead? Fidelity in every relationship, and especially my marriage, is really important to me."

"Babies #3 and #4 coming this Summer! Talk about a PLOT TWIST!" Kirke wrote. "Spontaneous twins are beyond magical."

She continued: "We are stunned. We are in awe. Can’t think of anyone else I’d rather be on this ride with @pennbadgley 👶♥️👶🎢#handsoffthewheel #monoditwins."

Badgley announced via Instagram that he was in the middle of his paternity leave as he and Kirke welcomed identical twin boys. 

“I’m interrupting my paternity leave, which I’m on by the way, which is also I’m whispering. There’s tiny little baby feet right there,” he said in a video. “I don’t want to wake them up.”
