Revelations in Harper’s Bazaar
Winona Ryder, the famous actress recognized for her unforgettable roles in productions such as ‘Beetlejuice’, ‘Heathers’ and ‘Stranger Things’, has shared details about two problematic love relationships that she experienced in her thirties. In an interview in Harper’s Bazaar magazine, Ella Ryder explained that, in both situations, she was involved with men who were already romantically engaged. ‘I had two disastrous relationships,’ the actress confessed. ‘They weren’t bad, but it was before you thought to Google someone. When I think about it now, I wonder: What was I thinking?’ she added.
Complicated love experiences
Although Ryder did not mention the names of those men, she acknowledged that they deceived her, and she regretted not having had the tools of social networks to avoid those disappointments. These unfortunate experiences, however, did not stop him from continuing to believe in her love. The actress has always been associated with recognized figures within the film industry.
Loves and disappointments in his youth
In the late ’80s, Ryder began a relationship with Rob Lowe, with whom she worked in the film ‘Square Dance’, although their romance was never formalized. Then, she met Christian Slater, who, in her own words in an interview with Vogue, ‘broke her heart.’ Later, she lived an intense romance with Johnny Depp, considered her first great love and one of her most famous relationships.
Winona described her love with Depp as ‘deeply intense’, a relationship she might not experience again. ‘First love is like that, isn’t it? Today I don’t know. It was a really wild time then,’ she declared. According to the magazine, the couple met at the premiere of ‘Great Balls of Fire!’ on June 26, 1989, beginning their romance during the filming of ‘Edward Scissorhands’. Although the relationship ended in 1993, Winona maintained a lasting affection for Depp, even defending him in the trial against her ex-wife Amber Heard.
New relationships and broken hearts
After her separation from Johnny Depp, Ryder had a two-year relationship with David Pirner, lead singer of the band Soul Asylum. Later, the actress fell in love with David Duchovny, known for his role in ‘The X-Files’, although this relationship did not last. In 1997, she began a romance with Matt Damon, whom she met through Gwyneth Paltrow, Ben Affleck’s girlfriend at the time. Her relationship with Damon continued for several years.
A current and stable love
Currently, Winona Ryder enjoys a stable relationship with Scott Mackinlay Hahn, a fashion designer with whom she has been since 2011. The couple leads a discreet life away from the spotlight, although they have occasionally been seen at events and red carpets. At 52 years old, Ryder continues to achieve success in her career, standing out again in her role as Joyce Byers in the popular Netflix series ‘Stranger Things’, which she is in its final season.
