Holland Taylor Reveals Where She and Girlfriend Sarah Paulson Stand on Marriage
Holland Taylor has no plans to put a ring on girlfriend Sarah Paulson.
As the Two and a Half Men alum recently admitted, the couple of nearly a decade are content with where their relationship currently stands.
“I don’t think so,” Taylor, 81, shared of possibly getting married on SiriusXM’s Andy Cohen Live Aug. 9. “No, we’ve never talked about it with any interest.”
The 81-year-old spoke about her views on marriage on SiriusXM’s Andy Cohen Live on Aug. 9, saying, “I don’t think [we’ll get married]. No, we’ve never talked about it with any interest.”
And a lot of that comes down to the weight the institution of marriage holds for them.
“It doesn’t seem to mean to us what it means to a lot of people,” she explained. “I’m sure we would if we wanted to.”
But while the duo—who started dating in 2015—have built a life together, Taylor is keenly aware of the large age gap she and Paulson, 49, share.
“We do have a wonderful resonance,” the Legally Blonde alum noted. “We are very interested in the same kinds of things. And yet, we share big differences,” she admitted. “We have a big generational difference between us, which worries me for her sake, but what can I do?”
Paulson, meanwhile, has previously brushed off chatter about their 32-year difference.
"There's a poignancy to being with someone older,” she told The New York Times in 2016. “I think there's a greater appreciation of time and what you have together and what's important, and it can make the little things seem very small."
And throughout the years, they’ve set their own path in their relationship. And this includes having separate residences—a decision Paulson believes strengthens their relationship.
"We don't live together," the American Horror Story star explained on the May 13 episode of the SmartLess podcast. "That's the secret to it. Holland and I spend plenty of time together, but we don't live in the same house."
The Golden Globe winner said it was Holland’s romantic past that led to the decision.
"Holland, before me, hasn't been in a ton of long-term relationships, whereas Holland is my third more than five-year relationship,” Paulson continued. "I tend to do that and have more experience doing that, Holland hasn't. So to get to be her age and sort of not having really cohabited with someone for a long time—I think it was a lot to sort of have me and all my me-ness in her space."
