Tommy Dorfman of 13 Reasons Why Quietly Ties the Knot with Partner Elise
Tommy Dorfman is announcing her marriage in a bold way.
The 13 Reasons Why star shared that she and her wife Elise eloped during a visit to Los Angeles in 2023, keeping the marriage a secret until they were ready to make it public.
Tommy and Elise first met on Hinge in 2021 when Tommy, aged 31, had returned to New York after years in Los Angeles. Despite not seeking anything serious following a recent divorce from ex Peter Zurkuhlen, Tommy and Elise felt a special connection.
“The early stages of our relationship laid the groundwork for how we would eventually tie the knot,” Tommy wrote in a Vogue essay published on May 2. “We got engaged just two months into dating.”
Although they did adopt a Great Dane puppy after six months, the pair took a year before moving in together, with Tommy playfully commenting, “Love, for us, required that nauseating combination of naiveté, delusion, and fate.”
