A Look at Venom: The Last Dance Star Tom Hardy’s Dating History and Past Relationships
As Eddie Brock and his alien symbiote continue their reign at the box office with Venom: The Last Dance, all eyes are on its lead star Tom Hardy. The British actor hasn’t only impressed the audience with his acting chops but garnered immense media and fan attention for his personal affairs and relationships. Here are some lesser-known details surrounding the dating History and relationships of Tom Hardy.
Tom Hardy has been off the market for a decade now, enjoying marital bliss with actress Charlotte Riley since 2014. An on-screen romance blossoming into a real love affair, Hardy and Riley are one of the most well-known couples in Hollywood today. However, Hardy has found himself in a slew of high-profile romances with Rachael Speed and Linda Park. Here’s a roundup of his love life.
Tom Hardy relationships: Who is the Venom star married to?
Hardy and British actor Charlotte Riley hit it off on the sets of the TV adaptation of Wuthering Heights in 2009, playing star-crossed lovers Heathcliff and Cathy. The same year, Hardy and Riley also shared the screen in the British TV crime drama The Take. Clearly, their off-the-charts chemistry on-screen trickled into real life, with the duo getting engaged the following year.
After getting massive tabloid attention during their courtship, they finally settled down in 2014. Tom Hardy wed Charlott Riley in an intimate ceremony at the 18th-century castle Château de Roussan, in the presence of family and friends including Hardy’s son Louis Thomas (from his relationship with Rachael Speed). The couple expanded their reunion with the birth of a daughter in 2015, then a son in 2019.
In a conversation with You Magazine, Riley spoke about parenting with Hardy. “The best you can hope for is to create a warm, loving, safe and consistent environment … We do it the same way everyone else does: a combination of juggling and help,” she stated.
For the unversed, Charlotte Riley is best known as May Carleton in the hit TV series Peaky Blinders. Her acting career took off after she graduated from the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art. Some of her other breakout roles include Sarah Hurst in Easy Virtue and Catherine Earnshaw in Wuthering Heights.

Tom Hardy and Rachael Speed
Before taking the plunge with Riley, the Venom star romanced Rachael Speed, an assistant director he met on the set of BBC’s The Virgin Queen in 2004. During their four-year-long romance, the couple welcomed a son, Louis Thomas Hardy, in 2018. Their relationship reportedly had many ups and downs, finally coming to an end in 2009. Despite the media frenzy surrounding their relationship and breakup, Speed has managed to keep her personal life private.
Tom Hardy and Linda Park
Another headline-grabbing relationship involving Hardy goes back to 2003. In the nascent stages of his showbiz career, the actor engaged in a brief romance with South Korean-American actress Linda Park. The Hoshi actress and Hardy met after being cast together in the play Roger and Vanessa at the Latchmere Pub Theatre. According to rumour mills, the two were even planning to establish their own theatre company while living together in South London. However, this short-lived affair didn’t stand the test of time, with Park returning to the US after their split.
Tom Hardy and Sarah Ward
Back in 1999, Tom Hardy married producer Sarah Ward. The relationship was nothing more than a whirlwind romance, highlighted by numerous challenges including Hardy’s addiction struggles. All these reasons took a toll on their marriage, leading to a divorce in 2004.
