The Gist:

• Jim Parsons and Todd Spiewak were first introduced to one another in 2002.
• They went on to date, and eventually wed in 2017.
• Todd is from Boston, Mass., and holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Graphic Design from Boston University.

Due to The Big Bang Theory’s popularity and 12-season run, Jim Parsons is a household name. However, a name we’re not as familiar with is that of Jim’s husband – Todd Spiewak.

If you didn't know, Jim is a married man, and has been for some time. Another fun fact you probably didn't know is that Jim and his husband executive produced The Big Bang Theory spinoff, Young Sheldon. Want to know more about Todd and what he does for a living? Well, keep scrolling!

Todd hails from Boston, Mass., and holds a Bachelor of Fine Arts degree in Graphic Design from Boston University. His clients have included American Express, Barnes & Noble, HP, The New York Times, and KitchenAid.

Together, Todd and Jim also started a production company in 2015 called “That’s Wonderful Productions,” and since 2016, Todd has worked as a producer, seeking the right fit for various projects, including television series, films, and theatrical productions.

Todd was also a producer for Spoiler Alert. Impressive huh?

Another fun and creative detail about Todd is that he is a painter with his own art Instagram account that features his main muses – man’s best friend. In 2022, he painted a new dog portrait every day, hence the handle a_dog_a_day_2022.

You'll be surprised to learn that 2023 marked the couple’s 21st year together, having first met on a blind date set up by friends at a karaoke bar back in 2002.

Since then, Jim has thanked Todd in his award acceptance speeches, the duo has walked red carpets together, and they’ve been blissful dog parents.

But, of course, like anyone in a long-term committed relationship, everyone and their mother wanted to know when they were going to tie the knot. Jim was hounded relentlessly on talk shows and at events about when he and Todd would set the date.

A credit to his will and desire to keep aspects of his relationship and life private, Jim deftly avoided giving information he didn’t want to go public.

Then, Jim and Todd surprised the Hollywood scene – but also didn’t because everyone knew it was just a matter of time – and got married in May of 2017 at the Rainbow Room in New York City. The couple celebrated their sixth anniversary in spring 2023.

We are happy to report that Jim and Todd still appear to be together! And, as a team, the couple continue to explore married life and run a production company. Oh, and they also work together as advocates for LGBT youth.

In 2013, the couple was recognized for their advocacy and transparency by GLSEN, an organization striving to end discrimination, harassment, and bullying based on sexual orientation, gender identity, and gender expression and to prompt LGBT inclusion and awareness.

A well-rounded and creative individual, Jim Parsons’s husband Todd can hold his own next to the Hollywood superstar.

Jim and Todd don't have any children yet, but they are the happy parents of pups Stevie and Rufus, who are currently featured in all of Jim's Instagram photos. The couple also had another dog, which sadly had to be put down after 14 years. Between his ailing dog and other events, Jim ultimately decided to step away from The Big Bang Theory.
