Andie MacDowell, the star of “The Way Home,” shared on “The Drew Barrymore Show” in 2024 that she is content being single. MacDowell, 67, reflected on the evolution of who she is as a human being and expressed that there is nothing wrong with being single. She values her great female friends and some male friends she likes too.
MacDowell has been married twice before. Her first husband was model-turned-contractor Paul Qualley, whom she met while shooting a Gap ad in 1985. They had a beautiful marriage but eventually divorced after moving to North Carolina with their children. MacDowell’s second husband was her former classmate Rhett Hartzog, and they tied the knot in Asheville with a fairy-tale wedding. Sadly, the marriage did not last, and MacDowell filed for divorce.
She has three children, son Justin, and daughters Rainey and Margaret, with Paul Qualley. Her daughters have followed her into the entertainment world, with Rainey pursuing acting, modeling, and music, while Margaret has become a major star in her own right.
MacDowell’s third engagement was to businessman Kevin Geagan, but the relationship did not make it down the aisle. Despite not revealing much about their romance, MacDowell expressed happiness with being single and has questioned the purpose of dating in recent years.
Overall, MacDowell’s journey through relationships and her return to being single showcases her resilience and self-assuredness in choosing a path that feels most authentic to her.
