Hannah Waddingham's Personal Life: Who is the Ted Lasso Star Married to?

As the end of Ted Lasso looms near, fans face the sorrowful realisation that they will soon have to bid farewell to their beloved, relatable characters.

Rebecca Welton is perhaps the most popular with fans. Portrayed as a self-contained, composed character who refrains from burdening others with her problems, Rebecca is not without her share of life's difficulties. Indeed, her failed marriage serves as the foundation for the show's entire premise. Yet, Rebecca persistently resists surrendering to despair and keeps getting back up every time she gets knocked down.

Hannah Waddingham, the actress playing Rebecca, deserves applause for infusing this character with such energy and liveliness. She has a firm understanding of who Rebecca is and has crafted a portrayal that feels as if she's living the role rather than just acting it out, so much so that fans can’t imagine anyone else as Rebecca.

Waddingham's other notable roles include Septa Unella in HBO's Game of Thrones, Sofia Marchetti in Netflix's Sex Education, Shiraz in The Hustle (2019), and Mother Witch in Hocus Pocus 2 (2022).

Contrary to what one might assume, Waddingham's roots lie primarily in theatre. Raised amidst a rich theatre background, with her mother, Melodie Kelly, and both her grandmothers being opera singers, Waddingham herself boasts an impressive four-octave vocal range. She exhibited her extraordinary vocal prowess at the recent Eurovision 2023, as well as when she sang Elsa's song in the first season of Ted Lasso.

At Eurovision, Waddingham also showcased her mastery of the French language, besides her fluency in Italian. This linguistic competence undoubtedly aided her relationship with Gianluca Cugnetto, a hotelier of Italian descent. The couple welcomed their daughter, Kitty, into the world in 2015.

However, as of now, Hannah Waddingham and Gianluca Cugnetto have parted ways romantically while continuing to share parenting responsibilities for their daughter. The reason for their separation remains undisclosed.

Waddingham is undeniably amusing, charismatic, immensely talented, and breathtakingly beautiful. It's hard to imagine anyone disliking her; anyone who does must have something wrong with them. Shockingly, despite all her remarkable qualities, Hannah Waddingham is currently single.
