Unveiling the Passion: The Sizzling Romance Between Kevin McKidd and Danielle Savre

Kevin McKidd and Danielle Savre transitioned from portraying coworkers on screen to embarking on a genuine romantic relationship. The actors from Shondaland drew attention in June 2023 when they were captured engaging in public displays of affection in Lake Como, Italy. Although the precise initiation of their romance remains undisclosed, they shared the small screen in numerous crossover episodes of Grey's Anatomy and Station 19, portraying Owen Hunt and Maya Bishop, respectively. Neither party confirmed their relationship status during that period.

In July 2022, McKidd, who has been married twice before, announced on Instagram that he and his ex-wife, Arielle Goldrath, had finalized their divorce. The Trainspotting actor shared that he typically does not share his personal life on social media but felt the need to discuss this matter. He explained that after much reflection and conversation, they had decided to end the marriage portion of their relationship. McKidd spoke highly of his ex-wife, describing her as an incredible mother and praising her wisdom, intelligence, and love. He emphasized that they still have a deep love and respect for one another.

The actor from The Kingdom of Heaven and Goldrath got married in 2018, one year after McKidd and Jane Parker, the mother of his son Joseph and daughter Iona, finalized their divorce after almost 17 years of marriage. A representative for the Grey's Anatomy actor announced the end of Kevin and Jane's marriage in July 2016, stating that they had made the decision together and would prioritize co-parenting their children while maintaining a close and caring relationship.

After marrying Goldrath, McKidd shared on his website that they were also expecting their first child together. In March 2018, the Scotland native wrote, "Arielle and I are thrilled to announce our marriage and the upcoming arrival of our new baby, who will soon join our growing family." The couple celebrated with close friends, family, and McKidd's Grey's Anatomy co-stars in a private and relaxed gathering that included a Scottish Ceilidh dance.

In 2018 and 2019, they welcomed two children, son Aiden and daughter Nava, before their split in 2022. Prior to that, Savre was involved with hockey expert Andrew Contis in 2019. On television, Savre's character Maya Bishop in Station 19 had a popular relationship with Dr. Carina DeLuca, played by Stefania Spampinato.

“I think that who we fall in love with is not determined by gender,” Savre expressed in a May 2018 interview with StyleCaster, where she discussed her portrayal of a bisexual character on the ABC series, executive produced by Shonda Rhimes, the creator of Grey's Anatomy. “I believe love is based on the individual, not their gender.”
