Jack Antonoff is still happily married to Margaret Qualley, three months after their wedding. During an appearance on Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, Antonoff, 39, gushed about the wedding, describing it as cliché and heartwarming. He expressed his desire to marry Qualley, saying he simply wanted to commit to her.
Antonoff reminisced about feeling utterly alone as he anxiously awaited Qualley, 29, to make her way down the aisle. In jest, he quipped that it seemed as though decades of cynicism had suddenly vanished from his being.
Antonoff and Qualley first connected in August 2021 and chose to keep their romance mostly private. However, in May 2022, rumors of their engagement began to circulate after Qualley was spotted wearing a ring at the prestigious Cannes Film Festival. She promptly confirmed the speculation with an Instagram post.
The actress expressed her love for him with a caption accompanying a lovely photo of the two, where she proudly displayed her diamond ring.
In August, Antonoff and Qualley exchanged vows in a glamorous wedding held on Long Beach Island in New Jersey. The star-studded event was graced by the presence of Taylor Swift, Lana Del Rey, Zoë Kravitz, and Channing Tatum, who is now engaged to Kravitz.
"I feel an overwhelming sense of joy knowing that I have discovered my soulmate," Qualley expressed to Harper's Bazaar during her interview in September, as she reminisced about her wedding. "This connection is genuine, extraordinary, and indescribably gratifying. It is without a doubt the most incredible sensation imaginable. I am filled with eager anticipation and a profound sense of serenity simultaneously."
Furthermore, the actress renowned for her role in "The Maid" elaborated on the transformative impact her partner Jack has had on her life, unequivocally for the better.

"Prior to meeting Jack, I didn't possess any furniture," she disclosed. "I used to reside in inadequate apartments, constantly shifting from one place to another, with only a mattress on the floor and a modest Ikea lamp. Creating a home was never a priority for me. My focus was always on movies...the other aspects of my life held no significance to me."
Presently, Qualley enthusiastically embraces the opportunity to construct a future alongside her husband.
"I simply desire to experience everything alongside Jack," she revealed. "Someday, I aspire to have children, although I haven't reached that stage yet, and I also wish to continue pursuing my career in movies. That is essentially all I am certain of."
As for Antonoff, he professed his affection for Qualley by creating a song titled "Margaret," featured on Del Rey's most recent album, Did You Know That There's a Tunnel Under Ocean Blvd.
"He encountered Margaret up on a rooftop, adorned in white," Del Rey croons in the initial verse. "And he expressed, 'I might face predicaments' / He experienced fleeting glimpses of a prosperous existence, pondering / 'Should I leap from this structure instantly or expedite the process?'"
Within the chorus, she melodiously declares, "Once awareness dawns, it remains absolute."
