Eric Stonestreet’s Double Celebration: Marriage and Major TV Comeback in 2025

A Year of Personal and Professional Milestones

Eric Stonestreet has made headlines with a joyful announcement of his marriage on September 9, 2025, which coincided with his 54th birthday. The Emmy-winning actor shared the news through photos of the celebration, playfully noting that his birthday gift this year was finally saying ‘I do’.

His bride is Lindsay Schweitzer, a pediatric nurse from Kansas City. The couple’s love story began at a charity fundraiser in 2016, where they connected through their shared Midwestern roots and sense of humor.

Professional Renaissance

On the professional front, Stonestreet is making waves with his latest role in Showtime’s new drama series ‘Dexter: Resurrection.’ The actor has been cast in a significant role as Al, a character who shares Stonestreet’s Midwestern background and is believed to be a serial killer. He is set to appear in four episodes of the series.

Additionally, Stonestreet has sold a new show to Amazon in collaboration with Peyton Manning and Omaha Productions. The project, which is currently in the script-writing phase, will feature him in the lead role and is described as a heartfelt comedy set in a retirement community, serving as a tribute to his father.

A New Chapter

In their personal life, the newly married couple has created a warm family environment, sharing their home with Schweitzer’s twin sons. Their daily life revolves around simple pleasures, including family dinners, grilling on the patio, and enjoying game shows together.

While maintaining his growing Hollywood career, including his role in the upcoming Dexter: Resurrection, Stonestreet continues to prioritize balancing his professional commitments with his home life in Kansas City. As a married man, this balance has taken on even greater significance, with family remaining his primary focus.
