Ethan Hawke & Ryan Shawhughes Turned Gossip Into a Partnership

Ethan Hawke says the best thing to come out of his mid‑life turmoil was Ryan Shawhughes. Years after she’d briefly worked as a nanny for his kids with Uma Thurman, she re‑entered his life as a Columbia grad and friend, and their romance only began after his first marriage ended. Hawke has pushed back on gossip, saying she “didn’t break up a family,” she helped him build a new one. They married in 2008, had daughters Clementine and Indiana, and today Ryan often produces his projects, including Blaze and The Good Lord Bird, as his most trusted creative partner.
