THE LINCOLN LAWYER CAST OFF-SCREEN IS JUST AS COMPLICATED AS THE SHOW.
While Mickey Haller untangles cases in court, the actors behind him are navigating very real romances, long-term partners, quiet marriages — and a few surprises fans never saw coming. Some relationships mirror the drama. Others couldn’t be more different. And one connection, in particular, is making viewers do a double take… 👀👇

NEED TO KNOW
Season 4 of The Lincoln Lawyer premiered on Netflix on Feb. 5
The series stars Manuel Garcia-Rulfo, Neve Campbell and Becki Newton, among others
Campbell and Newton have both been with their partners for over a decade
Manuel Garcia-Rulfo knows his The Lincoln Lawyer character sometimes makes questionable moves when it comes to his love life, but off-screen, much of the cast’s relationships are much less complicated.
The Netflix series — which premiered its fourth season on Feb. 5 — follows idealistic lawyer Mickey Haller (Garcia-Rulfo) as he runs his practice in Los Angeles. He faces challenges in both the courtroom and his love life, which the actor has attributed to the character’s “very bad” decisions.
“Why go have a relationship with another lawyer that knows your ex?” he joked to Today in October 2024, following season 3’s release. “It’s fun because they’re so opposite that it’s cool to see that.”
In real life, though, many of the cast’s lives and relationships are a lot less drama-filled. Becki Newton (who plays Mickey’s second wife Lorna Crane) has been married to Chris Diamantopoulos since 2005, and Neve Campbell (who portrays Mickey’s ex-wife Maggie) has been with her partner, JJ Feild, since 2012.
Here’s everything to know about the real-life partners of The Lincoln Lawyer cast.

Newton married Diamantopoulos in 2005.
In November 2008, she told New York Magazine about their meet-cute; she was in the Times Square subway station when Diamantopoulos tapped her on the shoulder and asked her if she wanted to see him naked on Broadway (he was starring in The Full Monty at the time).
“It could have been creepy, but it was so cute!,” she told New York Magazine.
Diamantopoulos is also an actor, most known for his roles in The Office, Silicon Valley, Diary of a Wimpy Kid and The Wonderful World of Mickey Mouse (in which he voiced the titular character).
In addition to sharing a passion for acting, they share four kids.
In May 2023, he told Fatherly that their favorite things to do as a family are “cook, set the table, enjoy a long meal, share stories, tidy up and watch Shark Tank.”

Garcia-Rulfo, who stars as Mickey, was in a relationship with Audrey McGraw — the daughter of Tim McGraw and Faith Hill — though they were last seen together some time ago.
She first soft launched their relationship on her Instagram Stories in June 2023, and they proceeded to keep their relationship mostly out of the public eye.
During an October 2024 conversation with Hola! Magazine, Garcia-Rulfo said he considered himself lucky in love.
“From childhood, and in everything, yes,” he said. “There’s a lot of love in my life, thank God.”

Although Campbell’s character, Maggie, has a will-they-won’t-they relationship with Mickey in The Lincoln Lawyer, she has been with her partner, Feild, since 2012.
As an actor and producer, Feild shares Campbell’s passion for the industry, and is most known for portraying James Montgomery Falsworth in Captain America: The First Avenger.
They’ve supported each other’s careers throughout the years and attended industry events together, including the Emmys in September 2017 and took part in the Writer’s Guild of America strike in May 2023.
Together, they share two children. In 2012, they welcomed their first son, Caspian, and in 2018, they adopted Raynor.

Raycole, who plays Izzy, a client-turned-employee of Mickey’s, seems to be single. However, her character’s love life has had her fair share of ups and downs.
“Every single character has a second chance. Izzy gets tested a lot this season; in her love life, sobriety, and professionally,” Raycole told Forbes when asked about season 2.
Season 2 saw Izzy get back together with her ex-girlfriend, Ray, whom she shared a dream of opening a dance studio with. Ray, however, broke some rules through a sneaky deal in order to avoid her half of the down payment — which struck a nerve with Izzy, who then broke up with her.
In season 3, Izzy had a new romantic interest when Gigi Zumbado joined the cast as Grace.
