True love! Mandy Moore and Taylor Goldsmith fell head over heels for each other when they first met, and their quiet love story slowly captured all of our hearts.
The This Is Us star never stopped believing she deserved love after she went through a devastating split from her estranged husband, Ryan Adams. Moore and Adams called it quits in January 2015 following nearly six years of marriage. Though the pair stated things remained amicable and respectful at the time their separation was first announced, the A Walk to Remember star opened up about her “sad” and “lonely” marriage in early 2019, alleging that Adams was often emotionally and verbally abusive toward her. Adams, for his part, admitted in a statement to Us Weekly that he’s “not a perfect man” and has “made many mistakes” following the claims of abuse.
After experiencing heartbreak, the “Candy” singer says life with Goldsmith “couldn’t be more different. The newlyweds met through Instagram in May 2015. Moore outed herself as a big fan of Goldsmith’s band, Dawes, posting the cover of one of their albums.
“Real excited about this one. Have a feeling it’s going to be the soundtrack of my summer. #Dawes #rightontime,” the Emmy nominee captioned the post. When the Dawes frontman noticed his famous new fan, the two began DMing, bonded over their shared love of music. The rest is history.
The pair had been happily dating for two years when Us first reported that they were quietly engaged in September 2017, shortly before the couple made their official announcement.
Since the lovebirds had kept their relationship relatively private, it was only fitting that Moore said they were planning a low-key wedding. “I don’t think I’m going to have a big, old affair,” the former popstar told Us in October 2017. “I think it will be small, and quiet, and private.”
Just over one year later, Moore finally married “the right person” in an intimate, romantic ceremony in Los Angeles. The two exchanged vows at sunset in the actress’ backyard in front of friends and family on November 18, 2018. Moore’s This Is Us costars Milo Ventimiglia, Chrissy Metz and Sterling K. Brown celebrated the special moment, as well as close friend Minka Kelly and the bride’s ex, Wilmer Valderrama.

After nearly six years of marriage, the Golden Globe nominee filed for divorce from her estranged husband, Ryan Adams. Later that year, she met Taylor Goldsmith, lead singer of the band Dawes. “I was still dealing with the trauma of my divorce when we started dating,” Moore told Glamour in a 2018 profile. “Taylor was steadfast in his support — that was a huge sign for me.”

One month into their quiet engagement and the wedding planning was already off to a running start! Moore revealed to Us and other reporters at The Rape Foundation’s Annual Brunch in 2017 that she and her then-fiancé were hoping to host a small, private ceremony. “I’ve never dreamed about a wedding, or a dress, or any of those details,” the former popstar said. “No judgment on women that do. I get it!”

At the same event, the Tangled star opened up about her plans for the future with her new love. Relating to her This Is Us character, Rebecca Pearson, Moore admitted that she and Goldsmith would both be open to adopting children one day. “It’s something my guy and I have talked a lot about,” she explained to Extra. “Perhaps that’s going to be a part of our life at some point.”

In a revealing New York Times profile, the Emmy nominee opened up about her failed marriage to singer Ryan Adams, claiming that he was verbally and emotionally abusive. “His controlling behavior essentially did block my ability to make new connections in the industry during a very pivotal and potentially lucrative time — my entire mid-to-late 20s,” she said at the time. After the allegations came to light, Adams told Us: “To anyone I have ever hurt, however unintentionally, I apologize deeply and unreservedly.”

Despite the trauma she experienced in her previous marriage, Moore always knew she would find love again. “I knew that past situations didn’t define me and didn’t even define what love or marriage or relationships or any of that had to be,” the actress told Michigan Avenue Magazine in April.

One year down, forever to go! In honor of their first anniversary, Moore shared throwback photos of the couple’s special day. “A year ago I married my favorite person in the world and I still pinch myself over whatever magic brought us into each other’s lives,” the actress wrote on Instagram. “I am the luckiest for knowing, loving and being loved by you.”

Moore gushed over her husband as he celebrated his 35th birthday on August 16. "I’m not sure what I did in a past life to deserve you but it must have been something big. You are undeniable," she captioned six photos on Instagram that showed them together as well as a couple of throwbacks of Goldsmith as a kid. "Your inherent light, humility, grace, humor, and compassion are contagious and I feel lucky to get the chance to bask in your goodness with outstretched arms. Thank you for trusting me with your heart. Thank you for being the best travel companion, crossword puzzler, songwriting partner, pet parent, and my favorite person. 2020 has certainly been a wild ride but I really can’t wait for what this next year will bring. Happy Birthday, T. I love you more than anything."
