After nearly four years of being engaged, the couple has finally said 'I do' in a cosy and intimate ceremony at their Los Angeles home on Sunday, 20th April 2025. Kristen Stewart is, of course, a household name — but her newly wedded wife, Dylan Meyer, might not ring as many bells just yet. So, to get better acquainted with the woman who's stolen the 'Twilight' star's heart, here's a list of fun facts about Kristen Stewart's wife: 1.

She is the eldest daughter of Oscar-nominated screenwriter and director Nicholas Meyer, renowned for his work on 'Star Trek II: The Wrath of Khan'. She has one sibling, her younger sister Madeline Meyer, with whom she shares a close bond. 2. She's a screenwriter and actress Following in her father's footsteps, Dylan Meyer has made a name for herself as a screenwriter and filmmaker in Hollywood. Among her most notable works are the Netflix films 'XOXO' and 'Moxie', a coming-of-age drama co-written with Tamara Chestna and directed by Amy Poehler. She also wrote for the sci-fi comedy series, 'Miss 2059', between 2017 and 2018. Though best known for her writing, Dylan has also dabbled in acting, appearing in several short films and an episode of the series 'Homemade', where she starred alongside Kristen Stewart. 3. She first met Kristen Stewart back in 2013 Although their romance didn't blossom until years later, Kristen first met Dylan on a film set back in 2013. She shared that the two originally crossed paths while working on a project, but it wasn't until they reconnected at a mutual friend's birthday party that sparks truly flew. 'I met her years ago on a movie and hadn't seen her in six years,' Kristen recalled. 'Then she turned up at a mate's birthday party, and I was like, 'Where have you been, and how have I not known you?' She'd been living in L.A. all this time, somehow alongside me, yet our paths never properly crossed,' she added. 4. Dylan Meyer proposed to Kristen Stewart unexpectedly In an interview with Howard Stern on 2nd November 2021, the 35-year-old 'Twilight' actress revealed that Dylan was the one who popped the question. 'It's not a given that I'd be the one, you know what I mean?' Kristen explained. 'With two women, you never quite know who's going to take on which traditional role, not that we think in those terms.' She went on to say that she had joked about wanting to be proposed to, and Dylan simply 'grabbed the bowl and made it happen.' The actress described the moment as super cute and perfectly them. 5. They are working on a TV show together Speaking to Vanity Fair, Kristen revealed that she and Dylan are collaborating on a television series, with Dylan taking on the writing and her doing the acting.

'It was like discovering a superbrain,' she shared. Congrats to the newlyweds on their marriage! We can't wait to hear more good news from them soon!
