Married to Alleged Husband, Tom Mahoney

Coolidge doesn’t seem to be too intent on pursuing public relationships. She mostly posts about work on social media and makes red-carpet appearances by herself. Though she hasn’t introduced anyone as her “husband” or “boyfriend” to the public, several fan theories have emerged about her dating life over the years.

A theory suggests that Coolidge once married a man named Tom Mahoney, and they even welcomed two children. Actor and comedian Chris Kattan is also one of the rumored boyfriends of Coolidge. The rumored couple was spotted together several times, but none of them addressed the rumors.

The rumor about Coolidge being a mother of two kids is also unproven. In a 2020 interview with BuzzFeed Celeb, she said that she doesn’t have children.
