Jodie Foster is head over heels for her wife, photographer Alexandra Hedison.
The Oscar winner, who celebrates her 63rd birthday on Nov. 19, 2025, quietly married Hedison in April 2014 after a year of dating. They never announced their engagement, and a source told PEOPLE at the time, “They are very private when they’re around people they don’t know, but when they’re together, it can be like they’re in their own world.”
In October 2025, Foster opened up to PEOPLE about how involved they are in each other’s creative endeavors, saying: “We do a lot of chatting, but it’s usually about laughing about jokes or football or movies and things like that. So no, I think we’re both in awe of each other, so I like to hear what she’s doing.”
As Foster turns 63, take a look at their most adorable couple moments throughout their 11 years of marriage.
