Paging Dr. Romance! Get to Know ‘The Pitt’ Cast’s Real-Life Loves
In The Pitt, the ER doctors and nurses don’t have a spare minute to take a breather, let alone have a full-blown romance. The first batch of episodes takes place over 15 hours, seeing Dr. Robby (Noah Wyle) and his crew treat patient after patient over a single shift. Understandably, it’s pretty much all work and no play. Plus, the med students are undergoing their first rotation on the floor, so they’re all just meeting their coworkers.
Still, that hasn’t stop viewers from shipping certain characters, whether it be Abbot (Shawn Hatosy) and Mohan (Supriya Ganesh), Langdon (Patrick Ball) and King (Taylor Dearden), and so on. Though executive producer and writer R. Scott Gemmill said that an outright romance didn’t make sense for Season 1, he explained to TV Insider, “So, we may hint at things moving forward, but we’re not going to find anyone having sex in a broom closet any time soon.”
Regardless of how romance-heavy Season 2 is, you might be wondering just how much love is in the The Pitt cast’s lives off-screen. Who is Noah Wyle’s wife? Are other stars married, dating, or single? Below, Swooon has compiled the relationship statuses of the hottest fake medical professionals on TV.
The Pitt, Season 2, Thursdays, 9/8c, HBO Max
Noah Wyle
If you’ve been following The Pitt during awards season, you’ve likely noticed that Wyle usually has a date on the red carpet. That would be the actor’s longtime love Sara Wells. During a 2014 appearance on The View, the ER star revealed that they had a secret wedding earlier that year.
In 2011, Wyle and Wells met at a Blank Theatre Company production in Los Angeles. His wife was (and is) involved in the entertainment business, once running a children’s entertainment company and taking on small acting roles. Their daughter, Frances Harper, was born in 2015. Wells is a stepmom to Wyles’ son, Owen, and daughter, Auden. They were born in 2002 and 2005, when Wyles was married to makeup artist Tracy Warbin. They finalized their divorce in 2010 following a decade of marriage.
Shawn Hatosy
Keep an eye out for Hatosy’s wife, Kelly Albanese, in The Pitt Season 2. Her character hasn’t been revealed yet, but we hope the real-life married couple interacts in some form or another. Albanese has had roles in Shameless, Endings, Beginnings, and more. She wed Hatosy in 2010, though their origin story still isn’t widely known.
When Hatosy won the 2025 Emmy for Outstanding Guest Actor in a Drama Series, he thanked his wife. “To my wife who I love, and you’re my partner and my world, and I love you endlessly, and I wouldn’t be here without your sacrifices,” he said. They share two sons, whom she often posts on Instagram.
Katherine LaNasa
Katherine LaNasa, who plays the tough, burnt-out Nurse Dana Evans, is another member of The Pitt crew with a longtime love that works in entertainment. The actress married Grant Show in 2012, after they met on the set of HBO’s 2006 series Big Love.
In 2013, Show — who’s also known for his roles in Melrose Place and the more recent Dynasty reboot — gave some insight into their relationship. “We really have a great life; we say it all the time,” Show told Redbook. “I’ve gotten bigger and freer because of Katherine. I see the openness that she has and think you know what? I guess it is safe over there.”
LaNasa and Show welcomed their daughter, Eloise, in 2014. LaNasa also has a 35-year-old son, Henry, from a previous marriage to actor Dennis Hopper. They were married from 1989 to 1992. In 1998, she wed actor French Stewart. They divorced in 2009.
Alexandra Metz
Alexandra Metz, who plays Dr. Yolanda Garcia, married her husband, writer-director Zach Le Cairo Groll, in 2021. She celebrated their anniversary on Instagram, writing, “Easily my biggest, best full body YES. Happy 3 years mi esposo precioso, y 5 años como mi novio! Thank you for the blessing that is you. Our little Groll pack is incredibly lucky. Cheers to our continued health & happiness. I love you and I love loving you, Zach🌳❤️”
Patrick Ball
Patrick Ball isn’t married like his character, but he does have a girlfriend, who accompanied him to the Season 2 premiere. He’s been dating Elysia Roorbach since October 2023, per a since-deleted Instagram anniversary post. Though not many details are known about their love story, they aren’t shy about showcasing their relationship on Instagram and on red carpets.
Roorbach is also an actor, per her Backstage profile, which also says she’s a dancer, and model. In fact, their shared profession is how they met. In September 2023, they joined the cast of a theater production of “Las Aventuras de Juan Planchard. (Check out a photo of the couple at the play’s table read here.)
On her boyfriend’s birthday in 2024, Roorbach captioned an Instagram post, “Cannot believe someone can be so generous and so loving all of the time. So lucky to get to love you and giggle with you and adventure with you🌜💛🌛 “
Shabana Azeez
The Pitt fans know that Dr. Victoria Javadi has the hots for a nurse in The Pitt Season 1, but Shabana Azeez keeps her dating life under wraps. The Australian actress hasn’t publicly revealed whether or not she’s in a relationship, but there’s no sign of a special someone on her Instagram.
Jalen Thomas Brooks
Jalen Thomas Brooks plays that aforementioned nurse who Victoria has her eye on, but does Brooks have an off-screen romance? The 24-year-old actor hasn’t shared if he is or isn’t dating anyone, but you can catch him hockey romance show for Prime Video later this year.
Gerran Howell
Dr. Dennis Whitaker doesn’t have any hints of romance in Season 1. (Well, unless you ship Huckleberry with Dr. Robby, which really is a thing that some fans are rooting for.) Gerran Howell hasn’t shared his relationship status publicly, and there’s no sign of a significant other on his social media, either.
Isa Briones
Personally, we think one of The Pitt‘s strongest ships is Isa Briones’ Dr. Trinity Santos and Dr. Yolanda Garcia, but does Isa Briones herself have any romance in her life? The 26-year-old actress hasn’t spoken or posted about being in a relationship, as far as we can see.
Taylor Dearden
Taylor Dearden isn’t known to be dating anyone and a quick glance at her Instagram profile doesn’t reveal a significant other. We’ll just have to see if her character, Mel, gets a romance of her own this season, with Langdon or otherwise.
Supriya Ganesh
We don’t know whether Supriya Ganesh‘s Dr. Samira Mohan and Abbot will ever become a thing, and we also don’t know whether or not Ganesh herself has a significant other. The actor, who uses she/they pronouns, is either single or keeping their love life private based on their social media.
Fiona Dourif
While Dr. Cassie McKay hasn’t had the best of luck in the love department, but we don’t know much about Fiona Dourif‘s love life. The actress has kept her relationship status private throughout her career, and there isn’t any evidence of a partner on her Instagram.
Ayesha Harris
Night shift Dr. Ellis actress Ayesha Harris is either single or keeping her dating life under wraps, based on her social media.
Sepideh Moafi
The Pitt newcomer Sepideh Moafi plays Dr. Baran Al-Hashimi in Season 2. You can read up all about her past roles, which include The Deuce and The L Word: Generation Q, but there isn’t much out there on her dating life. The 40-year-old actress tends to keep that part of her life private and offline.
