Remember Stephen Colletti? Of course you do! He was the blonde, beach-tanned heartthrob who made us all wish we went to Laguna Beach High School back in the mid-2000s. Whether you were Team Stephen or Team LC (or secretly rooting for Kristin Cavallari to win, no hate!), there's no denying that Stephen was the guy everyone was talking about when MTV's Laguna Beach dominated our after-school TV schedule.
Fast forward two decades, and Stephen is all grown up. The reality TV star turned actor has come a long way from those sun-soaked California days of teenage love triangles and dramatic beach confrontations. After Laguna Beach wrapped, he landed a role on One Tree Hill, and is now one of the cast members in the star-studded Season 4 of The Traitors. But while his professional life has been an open book, his romantic life has been a bit more mysterious lately. (Well, it was until recently, but we have some updates!)
If you've been wondering whether the guy who once made LC cry on national television has finally settled down, you're not alone. Fans who grew up watching Stephen navigate the complicated world of high school relationships are now curious about his adult love life. Is he married? Dating someone? Still breaking hearts left and right? Let's break down everything you need to know about Stephen Colletti's current relationship status and love life in 2026.

Unfortunately, Stephen and Alex haven't spilled the tea on exactly how they first crossed paths. Did they meet at a work event? Through mutual friends? At a coffee shop? We just don't know!

Are Stephen Colletti and Alex Weaver married?
Yes! The couple got engaged in Rome, Italy, on November 15, 2023. This was exactly two years after their very first date, Stephen revealed in an interview with Tilt Magazine. Talk about romantic timing!
Nearly two years after the engagement, they tied the knot on October 3, 2025, in a small civil ceremony. The wedding was apparently super intimate and low-key.
They announced it on Instagram the same day with post-ceremony photos and the caption “Mr. & Mrs.”

From the photos, the vibe looks elegant but relaxed. Alex wore a white high-neck mini dress with pearl details, while Stephen rocked a black suit with a casual, unbuttoned collar.
View this post on InstagramAs of now, there's no news about Stephen and Alex having any children. Public announcements and coverage of their marriage have not mentioned anything about kids. Whether or not a bigger family is in their plans for the future is something only they know!

Stephen Colletti’s Past Relationships
Okay, so if you watched Laguna Beach back in the day, you already know Stephen's dating history was basically the entire plot of the show. Let's take a trip down memory lane.
Long before meeting Alex Weaver, Stephen Colletti had several relationships that were public during his time in entertainment. That includes his Laguna Beach co-stars Kristin Cavallari and Lauren Conrad.
Stephen and Kristin Cavallari dated on and off throughout high school, and their relationship was central to the drama of Laguna Beach. They started dating before the show even started filming. By the time MTV showed up at Laguna Beach High School, they were already in the on-again-off-again situation that made the show so watchable.
Things got even more complicated by creating a whole love triangle situation with Lauren Conrad. The show played up the "will they or won't they" tension between Lauren and Stephen. The two eventually did date for about a year.
After Stephen left reality TV and moved into acting, he dated Heroes actress Hayden Panettiere in the mid-2000s. He also dated his co-star on One Tree Hill, Chelsea Kane, for about two years, roughly from 2011 to 2013.
