Entertainment Weekly reported that the duo met for the first time in 2015, onset or a movie titled "Sky," however, during this time, Kruger was still in a relationship with Jackson, which ended shortly after.

The lovers did not kick off anything between themselves until 2017, and by this time, the actress was again, a single and beautiful woman. From the way their love story unfolds, it's important to note that when they met, they started dating right away.

In 2018, the duo welcomed their first child and daughter. Kruger also shares her partner's son from another relationship with the model, Helena Christensen, and the family lived happily. Although the pair are prominent actors in the industry, they decided to keep most details of their private lives away from the public.

This protection was enacted after they started a family, as the couple thought it better to protect their kids at all costs. Their kids' names aren't even mentioned anywhere online, for safety precautions. Nevertheless, they sometimes update fans on some details about their lives via Instagram, which is much appreciated.

Despite living very private lives, Kruger never fails to gush about her awesome family anonymously on her Instagram page and during selected interviews.

In April 2019, when her daughter was about a year old, the "Unknown" actress spoke to People about her toddler, describing her as 'not really girly, but kind of a dude.' Although this description did little to fuel fans imaginations of what the child looks like, they were still excited about the star's statement.

From the looks of things, this beautiful family is leading a happy and beautiful life, and in spite of the parents' busy schedules, they always find a way to make it work.

Reedus is currently starring in the finale season of "The Walking Dead," which is filming between Atlanta and Senoia, Georgia. According to reports, the series still has about 30 episodes to film that will be spread over 2022.

Kruger had her first parenting experience with Reedus, but the 52-year-old had previous experience in that area when he dated Christensen. The duo shares a grown son, whose name is also not disclosed to the public yet.

Although the pair never openly spoke about why their relationship did not work out, Kruger has noted severally that her fiancé is an attentive father who dotes on his children always. She went on to explain to People that the actor shows his daughter so much unconditional love, that she sometimes wishes that he would look at her that way.

No doubt, the actor loves his wife and children unconditionally, and that is one of the many things that fans love and adore about him.

It was earlier stated that at the time Kruger and Reedus met, the former fashion model was in a long-term relationship with Jackson. Prior to this, she was married for five years to another actor named Guillaume Canet.

In 2011, shortly after the split, the actress explicitly told Glamour Magazine what she found out during her marriage that eventually led to its end.

"Without sounding pessimistic, I learned that I don't believe in marriage," she said to the news outlet.

This may be the reason why she never deemed it necessary to get married while she was romantically involved with Jackson, however, things may have changed for Kruger now. By 2019, the actress had already started speaking about how her dream wedding dress would look like, and if she wants a party.

This goes without saying that when someone meets the right person, many things can change in their lives. We wish the happy couple the best as they prepare to enter a new phase of their lives.
