Is Eric McCormack back together with his wife Janet Holden? That will probably be a question in the hearts of their fans. The pair sparked reconciliation rumors with their joint appearance at the 2024 Oscars viewing party.

Things seemed to go wrong between the “Will & Grace” star and her partner in November 2023 when she filed to end their 26-year marriage. Although Holden cited “irreconcilable differences” as his reason for the divorce, he seemed comfortable posing for pictures and holding hands with McCormack.

Their Comfortable Red Carpet Appearance Comes Four Months After Divorce Filing

McCormack and Holden’s friendly demeanor at the Oscars viewing party raised hopes of a possible reconciliation four months after their divorce caused waves.

In November 2023, the wife of the “Traveler” actor filed for divorce in the California Superior Court. In documents obtained by The Blast, he cited “irreconcilable differences” as the reason for their split and demanded that the court grant his request for spousal support.

Surprisingly, Holden also asked to terminate McCormack’s right to support, meaning he did not want to pay anything. The demand for media personalities doesn’t end there. She also wants her husband to pay her attorney’s fees and expenses accrued from their divorce proceedings.

It’s not clear if the couple has a prenuptial agreement, but they will most likely split everything equally. In his legal documents, Holden asked the court to “Determine rights to community and quasi-community assets and debts” and confirm their separate property and assets.

As for their son, Finnigan, since he is not a minor, there will be no custody battle over him.

McCormack Didn’t Let Go of His Wedding Ring

Days after Holden filed for divorce, McCormack was seen for the first time with his wedding ring still intact. He is the epitome of sadness as he steps out with his dog for a walk on a tree-lined street.

The Hollywood veteran wore a blue zip-up hoodie over a t-shirt, khaki shorts with black sneakers and a baseball cap. He and his dog visited the shop for morning coffee and a snack before stopping at a tree and staring into the distance.

Before this November 2023 tour, McCormack and Holden were last seen together on July 24 at the opening night after party for The Cottage in New York City. Before that, they made a splash at Elton John’s AIDS Foundation Academy Awards viewing party in March.

In Couple’s Love Story

McCormack and Holden have kept a low-key relationship over the years; however, their romance reportedly began in 1994. The couple met on the set of “Lonesome Dove: The Series,” which was filmed in the plains of Alberta, Canada, near Calgary.

Holden served as an assistant director for the television show and soon found himself falling in love with the young McCormack. During the interview, she explained that the couple hid their romance from the crew, saying: “There’s a bit of mystery and danger, which is fun.”

Meanwhile, McCormack shed light on their relationship in a 2007 interview, admitting that Holden initially rejected his advances. In his words:

“In the beginning, he was not very interested. He knows acting is a lot of work: it’s like taking your work home with you. But I managed to convince him.”

They secretly dated for over a year until they decided to reveal their romance at the show’s closing ceremony. Finally, they said their vows in an intimate ceremony in August 1997, and the rest is history.
