Because of the upcoming show, Harris has been in the headlines more than usual. So you might be wondering who is involved in his love life!

Who is Uncoupled star Neil Patrick Harris married to?

Harris is married to actor and professional chef, David Burtka. Burtka actually appeared in seven episodes of How I Met Your Mother, playing Scooter who was the former high school boyfriend of Lily Aldrin. Like his husband, Burtka also starred on Broadway. Though now he’s mostly focusing on his culinary career.

In 2007, the couple made their red carpet debut at the Emmy Awards. They have been together since 2004. The two announced their engagement following the passage of the Marriage Equality Act in New York in 2011. Harris and Burtka had already proposed to each other five years earlier, but were waiting until same-sex marriage became legal.

They officially tied the knot in September 2014 in Italy, with long-time How I Met Your Mother director Pamela Fryman officiating and music legend Elton John performing at the reception.

Harris and Burtka are parents to twins, their son Gideon Scott and daughter Harper Grace. They were born in October 2010. You can find cute photos of the couple and their kids on Harris’ Instagram page!
