Jonny Lee Miller's Wives: Inside the Actor's Marriages to Angelina Jolie and Michele Hicks

Jonny Lee Miller's wife—rather, ex-wife—Angelina Jolie, is a mainstay in the actor's life. Their marriage was underwhelmingly short despite their eagerness to tie the knot. Jonny also shares a lasting relationship with his second ex-wife, Michele Hicks.

Jonny Lee Miller is widely known as the star of "Elementary," where he plays Sherlock Holmes alongside Lucy Liu, who plays Joan Watson. The CBS New York-set series began in 2012 and remained on the screen until its conclusion in 2019 after seven critically acclaimed seasons.

Although "Elementary" springs to mind when Jonny's name is mentioned, he does have a plethora of roles to his name, like most recently starring in seven episodes of "The Crown." In 2008, Jonny was cast as the star of "Eli Stone," with Julie Gonzalo as his love interest.

Jonny Lee Miller Was Married to Angelina Jolie Only for a Few Years, but Their Friendship Is Still Going Strong

After meeting on the set of 1995's "Hackers," Jonny and the "Maleficent" star Angelina Jolie hit it off and began dating. Upon the production's completion, Jonny lost touch with the actress but reunited with her the following year—progressively, they were married in March 1996 wearing rather unconventional wedding outfits.

In addition to their leather jacket-themed wedding, Angelina used her blood to write Jonny's name on her T-shirt. Nobody besides Jonny's closest pal and Angelina's mother attended the wedding. Despite their passionate intimacy, the union was shorter than fans of their cult classic film expected. They parted ways after 18 months.

Their divorce was confirmed in 1999, but when Angelina was asked about her retrospective thoughts on their 1995 film, she answered, "That's where I met Jonny, who is still a great friend. So I think of him when I think of that. Although I'm sure the movie looks so ancient now, but we had a lot of fun making that."

Jonny was spotted with his ex-wife in California in October 2021, having dinner in a Beverly Hills restaurant, Eoc, and was photographed leaving together. Their October sighting came after Angelina's divorce from Brad Pitt and a few dates with Canadian musician, The Weeknd.

Page Six broke the news of Angelina being spotted at Jonny's apartment in New York City earlier that year. The actress was seen at his place on June 11, and the news hit the media the following day. E! Online reported that Angelina's son Knox Leon Jolie and Jonny's son Buster Timothy Miller were present at their June link-up.

Despite their divorce dating back further than two decades and a few marriages and children between then and now, Jonny and his first wife still maintain a good relationship. And according to Angelina, in 2017, Jonny was "still a great friend" of hers.

Jonny Lee Miller Built a Strong 'Modern Family' with Actress Michele Hicks

Jonny got married for a second time in 2008 to actress and model Michele Hicks who he was introduced to by a mutual bud at a bar two years earlier. The actor revealed that they met, and "that was it," seemingly implying that they hit it off from the moment they exchanged their first hellos.

Jonny and Michele revealed they were expecting their first child in September 2008. They hosted a baby shower in Los Angeles that friends and family of both parties attended, and at the time, Michele was seven months into her pregnancy.

On December 3, 2008, Jonny, who was 36, and his then-wife, who was a year younger, greeted their son Buster for the first time. PEOPLE reported that Buster weighed 9 pounds at birth in a Los Angeles hospital. The couple remained together for ten years before they divorced in 2018 without much to say about their split.

Michele is an actress known for many roles, including a 2017 appearance as Thea Moser in "Elementary," starring her ex-husband. She is widely known for compelling contributions to the 2004 movie "Messengers," the TV series "The Shield," and, integrally, "Mulholland Drive" with lux-living Justin Theroux.

Jonny often shares pictures of himself with Michele and their son, as he did in 2014, when they staged frowns for a selfie upon leaving a location they were all fond of. His public appreciation for Michele did not stop when they divorced. On Mother's Day 2021, he acknowledged her as "the mother of the best thing to ever happen" to him.

He had previously wished Michele a happy Mother's Day in 2020 and reassured his love for her before sending salutations to the "modern families" of the world. The actor seemingly has no bad blood with his ex-wife and proved it again in November 2020, posting a picture of her with their son on a gloomy beach day.

Jonny Lee Miller Was Once Linked to Kate Moss and Natalie Appleton, but His Current Romantic Life Remains a Mystery

Jonny has been linked to several famous women in the past. Some of them include Kate Moss, Jennifer Esposito, and Natalie Appleton. Edwina Currie is an honorable mention, though, that remained on screen.

In 2004, Jonny was involved with actress Kate Moss, and they formed a part of the Primrose Hill set, who in the 90s, became known for dominating the party scene in London. Jonny was also linked with Natalie, but their relationship came to a crashing end on New Year's Eve 1999.

Jonny's history with commitment includes one awkward blemish. He was engaged to Lisa Faulkner but called it off before she could grasp the reason for the disappointing end. Lisa, who was hurt by the actor's decision, revealed that "Sex and The City" was her comforting distraction after the split.

Aside from the growth in rumors about Jonny's reunion with his date from the Eoc restaurant, there are no confirmations about partners in his life. What is confirmed is his continued thriving on set, like his recent role as Paul in the 2022 black American history movie "Alice."
