The NCIS franchise—spanning NCIS, NCIS: Hawai‘i, and NCIS: Los Angeles—is known for its memorable on-screen romances. Off camera, many cast members have love stories just as compelling, often with partners who share their creative worlds.
Eric Christian Olsen (NCIS: Los Angeles) has been married to actress Sarah Wright since 2012. The couple met on the sitcom The Loop and share three children.
LL Cool J, who played Sam Hanna, has been married to Simone Smith since 1995. Their decades-long marriage endured one of its toughest tests when Simone battled bone cancer—a journey LL has often credited with strengthening their bond.
In a real-life twist worthy of TV, Daniela Ruah married David Paul Olsen, the brother and stunt double of her on-screen husband Eric Christian Olsen. The couple wed in 2014.
Chris O’Donnell has been married to Caroline Fentress since 1997, while NCIS: Hawai‘i star Vanessa Lachey shares a high-profile romance with husband Nick Lachey.
Other stars—including Alex Tarrant, Tori Anderson, and longtime franchise lead Mark Harmon, married to actress Pam Dawber—round out a cast whose real-life relationships are as lasting as the show itself.
