Jodie Foster, the beloved Oscar-winning actress, marked her 64th birthday on November 19, 2025. She shares this special day with her wife of 11 years, Alexandra Hedison, a talented photographer. The couple tied the knot in April 2014, in a private ceremony that reflected their preference for keeping personal moments away from the public eye.
Their love story began quietly, with Foster and Hedison choosing to keep their engagement a secret. A source close to the couple revealed, “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.” This approach to their relationship has allowed them to focus on their bond without external distractions.
In a recent interview with PEOPLE in October 2025, Foster shared insights into their strong connection. She expressed, “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.” This mutual admiration and respect have been the foundation of their enduring partnership.
Throughout their 11 years of marriage, Foster and Hedison have shared numerous heartwarming moments. From attending gala events to supporting each other’s professional achievements, their relationship exudes love and support.

Following their nuptials in April 2014, they glowed with happiness at a gallery opening in Los Angeles, embodying the joy of newfound love.
At the Hammer Museum Gala in 2016, Foster and Hedison radiated harmony as they enjoyed each other’s company. Their shared interests and values have strengthened their bond, allowing them to navigate life’s challenges with unity. Even during the COVID-19 pandemic in 2020, the couple stayed close, as seen in a rare selfie posted by Hedison on Instagram, reflecting their commitment to each other’s well-being.
As Foster received accolades for her work, including her third Golden Globe win in 2021, Hedison was by her side, celebrating these milestones with love and affection. The couple’s public displays of affection, such as sharing a kiss at the Cannes Film Festival in 2021, have endeared them to fans worldwide.
