Actress Helen Hunt is best known for starring in the NBC sitcom Mad About You, the cult-classic disaster film Twister, and of course, her Oscar-winning role in the film As Good as It Gets. However, following her rise to stardom, she appeared to retreat a bit from the spotlight. The actress has expressed multiple times not being interested in the press attention her As Good as It Gets co-star Jack Nicholson received.
Is she currently married? Does she have any kids? Here’s what you need to know about Helen’s life currently.
Following her 2000 divorce from Hank Azaria, Helen met producer Matthew Carnahan in 2001. The pair welcomed a daughter, Makena Lei Gordon Carnahan, in 2004 but never married. However, their partnership lasted until 2017, when Helen and Matthew split in what many tabloids have labeled a “messy” breakup.
At the time, a source revealed to In Touch Weekly that “Matthew moved out a few times over the years. Helen would always take him back, and then time would pass and she’d kick him out again.”
According to People, in October 2019, Helen was in the back of an SUV when it was T-boned while attempting to drive through an intersection. The car rolled over on its side due to the impact, and Helen was briefly hospitalized following the accident. In September 2021, Helen sued the limousine company that operated her vehicle.
Court documents obtained by People cited she was seeking “compensatory damages,” citing “personal injury, wage loss, hospital and medical expenses, general damage, loss of earning capacity” and other damages — specifically “loss of earnings, emotional distress, pain and suffering, economic and non-economic damages.”
Thankfully, it seems Helen is doing much better now! In 2020, she starred in the crime drama film The Night Clerk and also appeared in a leading role in the Starz series Blindspotting, based on the film of the same name by Daveed Diggs and Rafael Casal. In September 2022, she began a starring role in the play Eureka Day at the Old Vic theater in London.
