Winona Ryder , who has no kids herself, said she found it “strange” to quickly develop a strong maternal bond with her on-screen children Noah Scnapp and Charlie Heaton.
After telling The Edit that she has “happily” been with her partner for “a while,” Ryder noted that she has never been married due to her high standards of love.
Winona Ryder was born Winona Laura Horowitz in Olmsted County, Minnesota, and was named after a nearby town, Winona, Minnesota. She is the daughter of Cynthia (Istas), an author and video producer, and Michael Horowitz, a publisher and bookseller. Her father's family is Ukrainian Jewish and Romanian Jewish.
Ryder was born to Cynthia Palmer and Michael Horowitz, both authors and editors; her father was also a bookseller. Ryder identified as Jewish, following in her father's family heritage. At age seven Ryder moved with her family to Northern California, where her father owned land shared with multiple other families.
Actor Keanu Reeves suggested this week that he's actually married to actress Winona Ryder. That's despite the fact that Reeves has been in a relationship with girlfriend Alexandra Grant since at least 2019, and Winona Ryder has been in a relationship with boyfriend Scott Mackinlay Hahn since 2011.
An anonymous source revealed that Winona "had a respectful relationship with Johnny for years [after their split], but she soured on any idea of an acting reunion after Johnny hooked up with Amber."
Ryder and Depp split iin 1993 after four years together. “They're young, and they grew apart,” a rep for Ryder told People at the time. Depp hinted to The Los Angeles Times at the time that the media attention was part of the reason his relationship with Ryder ended.
3. Winona Ryder. Winona Ryder is another example of an actress that feels comfortable in her own skin, regardless of her age, and has no intention whatsoever of undergoing plastic surgery, or at least none that we know of.
For Ryder, much of her anxiety and depression came from the journey to stardom. She says of that overwhelming experience, “I'm a very lucky person and very privileged, but I also have the same pressures as any human being.”
Her father is from a Ukrainian Jewish and Romanian Jewish family. Growing up, she visited her paternal grandparents in Brooklyn for Passover every year. Named after Winona, Minnesota, Ryder was given her middle name, Laura, because of her parents' friendship with Laura Huxley, writer Aldous Huxley's wife.
Winona decided to break off the relationship because of the amount of backlash they were getting. Their relationship was constantly being criticised because of the age difference between the two (Johnny was 27, Winona 18, at the time.)
While sharing about working together, Reeves jokingly revealed that he and Ryder got married due to a technical error. As they both have been some of the kindest Hollywood stars, they have starred in several films together.
Winona's a heavy smoker and she was furious when the producers told her she's not allowed to take a smoke break anywhere near the set because of a confidentiality agreement she signed.
Depp got the tattoo in the 90s as a way to honour actress Winona Ryder whom he was dating at the time. However, once they broke up he changed the tattoo to say "Wino Forever". The Pirates of the Caribbean actor took the stand in court to share the story of the tattoo, saying: "I took off the last two letters.
In my relationship with Winona it was my mistake to be as open as we were. I thought if we were honest we would destroy the curiosity monster. Instead, we fed it. We gave people permission to feel like they were part of it," Depp told the Los Angeles Times.
