Now rumors spread that Deschanel and producer Pechenik were dating in 2014, with them confirming their engagement in early 2015. They secretly wed later that year and welcomed two children named Elsie Otter, 6, and Charlie Wolf, 5.
They separated in 2019, with the divorce finalizing in June 2020. However, the two continue to co-parent, with Deschanel’s loving beau of two years Scott being an amazing father figure as well.
In a previous interview with Redbook, Deschanel talked about how she took a bit of a step back from her career to focus on being a mother and how it helped her so much.”I’ve slowed things down a bit. I think it’s good for your whole self — your creative self, your professional self, and just your soul — to take a little time for yourself and your family,” she said. “You can spend your whole life going after things, but I think you risk missing out on some really powerful self-reflection.”
