The Nyad actress and Hedison married after a year of dating in 2014. A source told PEOPLE at the time, "They are very private when they’re around people they don’t know. But when they’re together, it can be like they’re in their own world.”

Although the two have kept much of their relationship out of the limelight, Hedison has been vocal about supporting her wife.

While accepting the best supporting actress award from home, Foster reciprocated the love by kissing Hedison during her acceptance speech and proclaiming, "I love my wife! Thank you, Alex, and Ziggy [her dog] and Aaron Rodgers."
