Who is Jon Tenney?
Jon Tenney is an American actor who grew up in Princeton, New Jersey. While his face isn't immediately recognisable in comparison to some of And Just Like That's mega-stars, there's a good chance you've seen him before.
That's because Tenney has carved out a pretty impressive career in television. Along with guest appearances in Brothers & Sisters, Will & Grace and The Newsroom, he was also one of the main actors on Major Crimes, appearing on all six of its seasons between 2012 and 2016.
He later scored a recurring role in the political thriller Scandal, which also starred Kerry Washington, which ended in 2018.
Given the clout of Sex And The City, Tenney's role in its reboot series And Just Like That will likely give his profile a boost in Hollywood.
Does Jon Tenney have a partner?
Yes! In real life, Tenney is happily married to Leslie Urdang, who is a a film producer and a theatre executive.
In 2021, Tenney shared a sweet update to his official Twitter account for their ninth wedding anniversary, writing: "Best walk of my life... nine years ago today. Happy Anniversary, my love!"
Before he met and married Urdang, Tenney was previously married to Desparate Housewives star Terri Hatcher. They wed in 1994 and were together for nine years before separating in 2004.
Does Jon Tenney have kids?
Yes, Tenney has one child from his previous marriage to Hatcher—a daughter named Emerson Rose Tenney.
Now 24, Emerson is clearly a go-getter—she graduated with a literary arts major from Brown University in 2020, and she's also followed in her parents footsteps by dabbling in films. She voiced ensemble characters in animated productions, Planes and Coraline.
How old is Jon Tenney?
Tenney was born on December 16, 1961, which makes him 60 years old. He began acting in 1986, meaning he's worked in the industry for more than three decades.
What will happen to Jon Tenney's character in And Just Like That?
Officially, we know that Carrie and Peter will go on a second date in And Just Like That, but we're pretty sure there'll be a little more romance to come between the pair. In pap shots published while they were filming in New York City in late 2021, Parker and Tenney were seen kissing on a sidewalk while they were in character.
Here's hoping this romance will prove to be the happy epilogue Carrie's book publisher so desperately wants...
