Dennis Quaid and Meg Ryan: A Romance in the Spotlight
The couple’s romance began in 1987, with Quaid and Ryan tying the knot in 1991. However, their relationship ended in 2000. Reflecting on their dynamic, Quaid admitted that their careers played a significant role in the strain on their marriage.
"When I met Meg, I was here in my career, and she was here. Then it just went like that," Quaid shared, referencing Ryan’s rise to fame as his own career hit challenges, including a stint in rehab. "I tried to be a big person and tell myself it didn’t bother me, but people are human," he said.
Despite their split, Quaid has nothing but admiration for his ex-wife. "Meg is really such a great, sweet person, and deserved all her success. I don’t regret anything about my marriage to Meg. We got Jack Quaid out of it, who is going on to maybe eclipse both of us."
Meg Ryan Clears the Air on Infidelity Rumors
After their split, rumors swirled about Ryan’s relationship with her Proof of Life co-star Russell Crowe. However, during a 2006 appearance on The Oprah Winfrey Show, Ryan clarified that Crowe wasn’t the reason for her divorce. "It was never about another man," she said. "It was just about what my and Dennis’ relationship couldn’t sustain."
Ryan later revealed in a vulnerable interview with InStyle that infidelity had been an issue in their marriage. "Dennis was not faithful to me for a long time, and that was very painful. I found out more about that once I was divorced," she said.
Moving On After the Split
Both Quaid and Ryan have moved on with their lives. Ryan dated John Mellencamp for nearly ten years before ending their relationship in 2019, while Quaid remarried Kimberly Buffington in 2004, though they eventually divorced 12 years later.
Despite the challenges, Quaid and Ryan seem to have found peace with their past, focusing on their successful careers and their son, Jack Quaid, who is carving out a name for himself in Hollywood.
Conclusion: No Regrets, Just Respect
Though their marriage ended two decades ago, both Dennis Quaid and Meg Ryan seem to have put the past behind them, focusing on their mutual respect for each other and their son Jack’s bright future. Their relationship may have been tumultuous, but it’s clear that they’ve moved forward with grace.
