For some, the third time may indeed be the charm, but for Liev Schreiber, it was his second time tying the knot that sealed the deal. The actor, famous for his commanding presence on series like Ray Donovan, has shared his life with Taylor Neisen, someone whose own story has shone brightly beyond the Hollywood star next to her. Between pageant crowns, ocean waves, and family bliss, their tale is far richer than the usual celebrity headline.

Beauty Queens often wear a crown, but Taylor Neisen has worn a passion for wildlife and a cause worth rooting for that has looked far more dazzling then any bejeweled gown could.

Taylor Neisen first stepped into the spotlight as Miss South Dakota USA in 2012, gracefully transitioning from pageantry to modeling and wildlife rehabilitation. Being a not-so typical celebrity spouse, she has had a passionate commitment to animal care, even admitted to personally rehabbing baby raccoons. Her advocacy has also extended to ocean conservation, demonstrating a refreshing depth beyond glitz and glam. Neisen’s life orbit is one of purpose, far from just being Liev Schreiber’s wife.

The couple had met in 2017, about a year after Schreiber’s split with actress and part-time dog whisperer Naomi Watts, with whom he shares two children. Schreiber and Neisen kept their relationship low-key until marrying privately in July 2023 at their Hamptons home. Soon after, they had welcomed their daughter Hazel Bee, joining Schreiber’s blended family that includes his children, Sasha and Kai, from his previous relationship.
