Inside Jane Levy's Relationship With Boyfriend Thomas McDonell

Although Jane Levy and Thomas McDonell are both clearly committed to their relationship – with or without a ring – Levy has been married before.

Levy secretly wed actor Jaime Freitas on March 3, 2011 and separated from him seven months later, per DailyMail. In 2013, The Zoe's Extraordinary Playlist star filed for divorce citing irreconcilable differences. 

As of February 2021, Levy and McDonell live together in Los Angeles. In an April 2020 interview with the Inquirer, Levy shared, "I got married when I was so young, and it lasted six months. I have been with my current boyfriend for nine years. So, my current relationship feels a lot more like a marriage than with the man I married when I was 20."

Plus, their relationship also has another fun benefit. McDonell introduced Levy to the second half of her other power couple: actress Mae Whitman. The two best friends have been very public about their support for one another, and it's with McDonell to thank.

"I was always hearing about this mysterious Jane," Whitman said to The Hollywood Reporter in February 2020. She even recalled when she first met Levy.

"I came around the corner and Jane was sitting in this giant booth with a big-ass shrimp cocktail right in front of her face," she explained. "It was just these big, blue, clear eyes probing into my soul the second that we met, and I was so jolted and scared but also excited. " The beginning of a true bestie love story.
