How long have Adam and Leighton been together?

Adam and Leighton first met in 2007. Josh Scwartz produced both The OC and Gossip Girl, and one night, Josh was at a Gossip Girl dinner and Adam just happened to be in the same restaurant.

Josh ended up introducing Adam to everyone, including Leighton. However, nothing really happened between the two that night.

It wasn’t until they were both cast in the 2011 film The Oranges that the two became friends — and just friends, as Adam was dating someone else at that time.

“We didn’t get together [until] about a year after that movie when I was single,” Adam recalled to Anna Faris on her Unqualified podcast in 2021.

The news of Adam and Leighton dating didn’t become public knowledge until early 2013 after they were spotted together multiple times. They then officially debuted their relationship in June 2013 at the premiere of Adam’s film Some Girl(s).

On February 15, 2014, Adam and Leighton tied the knot in a very private ceremony.

Then in 2015, they welcomed their first child, a daughter named Arlo Day Brody.

The World’s First Podcast with Erin & Sara Foster

In October 2024, Adam Brody appeared on The World’s First Podcast with Erin & Sara Foster to discuss his hit show Nobody Wants This (which was created by The World’s First Podcast co-host Erin Foster). 

During the chat, the three spoke about how Adam’s character Noah is the perfect man and how the way he treats Kristen Bell’s character Joanne is seriously swoon worthy. 

Then Adam very sweetly credited all of that to his wife Leighton. 

“A big part of the way I portray a relationship onscreen or relate to women onscreen is because of [Leighton] and my real-life experience. She has a lot to do with it.”
