Debra Messing & Daniel Zelman

Debra Messing and Daniel Zelman have a lot of things in common. Aside from their love for their careers in Hollywood, the actress and the producer are both Jewish. The Will & Grace actress is half American and half Ashkenazi Jewish. Zelman, on the other hand, is also Jewish American. Messing and Zelman met at New York University, where both graduated with a degree. After dating for eight years, the two decided to take their romance to another level and the two exchanged vows in 2000.

They are blessed with their only son, Roman, who is now 16. But despite what seemed to be a lasting relationship, they eventually parted ways. In 2016, Messing and Zelman announced their split after ten years of marriage. They may have parted ways but the two never remarried and remain friends and responsible co-parents to their teenage son.
