Barbie co-writers Greta Gerwig and Noah Baumbach have walked down the aisle after 12 years of dating.

A representative for Gerwig confirmed to People on Dec. 20 that the pair had tied the knot, while a source also claimed that the wedding ceremony was held at New York City Hall.

Gerwig and Baumbach’s longtime relationship dates back to 2010 when they first met on the set of Greenberg. The couple also share two sons, who they welcomed in 2019 and 2023.

Greta & Noah Work Well Together

The newly married pair have worked together on numerous occasions throughout their 12-year relationship. In a 2019 interview with Vogue, Baumbach spoke of “the pleasure of writing” alongside his now-wife.

“I don’t want to sound sickeningly happy, but it’s a truly great thing to watch someone you love make something and love the thing they make,” he explained. “I don’t know how else to say it without saying great a lot.”

Baumbach also said at the 2020 Academy Awards that Gerwig makes him a “better person and a better writer.”

“When we write together, I’m always trying to impress her,” he said. “I feel like I write better because I work at it harder, I want her to be impressed.”

Gerwig previously shared details of her relationship with Baumbach, telling Vogue in 2019 that her weekends usually involve “hanging out with Noah and the baby, and writing, and making each other laugh.”

The Couple’s Barbie Success

As per Variety, Baumbach revealed at a Q&A in October that he initially feared working with Gerwig on Barbie would be a “terrible idea.”

“I know enough always just to follow what Greta says,” he continued. “So even in my bellyaching and revolting, I kind of knew, ‘Well if she really believes it, then there’s something there.’”

The film went on to become one of the most successful releases of 2023, earning more than $1 billion at the global box office.
