Wes Anderson is married to Juman Malouf, a Lebanese writer, fashion designer and voice actor. The two have been dating since the early 2000s, have lived together for over 20 years, and have a daughter, Freya (born 2016). Although there is no public marriage certificate or official record of their wedding, they have been referred to as “partners” by several authoritative media outlets and have appeared together as husband and wife at public events.
Controversy and clarification
1.Rumors with Justine Bonnard.
Some Chinese media outlets (e.g. Wanxiang Wikipedia) had mistakenly rumored that Anderson was living with actress Justine Bonard (Jude Law's ex-wife). However, according to IMDb and Authority Entertainment News, Bonnard has been dating French director Michelangelo Frammartino since 2019 and there is no credible evidence that she has been in a marital or long-term relationship with Anderson.
2.Relationship with Olivia Williams
Anderson was in a nine-year relationship (1996-2005) with British actress Olivia Williams (star of “Father in Time”) and they have a daughter, Matilda. However, Olivia married someone else in 2003 and is currently just friends with Anderson.
Wes Anderson's relationship with Juman Maloof transcends the traditional form of marriage and is more like a deep fusion of art and life. Despite the lack of a publicized marriage ceremony, the two have become a model for Hollywood in their close collaboration in both their creative work and their lives. For further verification, see Anderson's interview in The New Yorker or Juman's solo work, both of which make numerous references to the significance of the relationship for both parties.
