Ewan McGregor and Ex-Wife Eve Mavrakis Reunite at Christmas Celebration
Ewan McGregor spent Christmas with his wife, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, former partner Eve Mavrakis and their kids.
Ewan, 52, was seen goofing off in photos with his eldest daughter, Clara McGregor according to photos she posted via Instagram on Monday, December 26. Clara, 27, captioned the photo with a green heart emoji and posed alongside her sister Ester McGregor in the first snap.
Other images in the Instagram carousel included one pic with Mavrakis, 57, Ester, 22, and Jamyan McGregor. Another family photo, sans Ewan, included Winstead, 39, Anouk McGregor and Laurie McGregor.
Ewan shares four kids with ex-wife Mavrakis. They welcomed Clara in February 1996 and Ester in November 2001. Jamyan, 22, was born in June 2001, and the couple adopted her in April 2006. Ewan and Mavrakis later adopted Anouk, 12, who was born in February 2011. McGregor filed for divorce from Mavrakis in January 2018, after 22 years of marriage. Us Weekly confirmed in June 2020 that they had finalized their divorce.
Following his split from Mavrakis, the actor moved on with Winstead. The couple met after working together on season 3 of FX’s Fargo in 2017 and sparked romance rumors shortly thereafter. They welcomed their first child together, Laurie, in June 2021. After five years together, Us confirmed in April 2022 that McGregor and Winstead had secretly tied the knot.
Ewan has spoken briefly about his and Winstead’s relationship. The actor said he feels “lighter” in this relationship compared to past ones, during an October 2019 interview with Men’s Journal.
“I am better. I am happier,” he continued. “I think that’s true.”
