Now, Caplan stars in Netflix’s political conspiracy thriller Zero Day, which premiered Feb. 20, opposite Robert De Niro, Jesse Plemmons, Angela Bassett, Connie Britton, Joan Allen and Matthew Modine, among others.
What might not be as well known about the actress, who’s delivered some of pop culture’s most endlessly quotable lines, is her relationship with fellow industry colleague Tom Riley, whom she married in 2017.
Lizzy Caplan is married to English actor, producer and director Tom Riley. The pair have known each other for over a decade and were married in 2017. What does Lizzy Caplan's husband Tom Riley do for work?
Riley’s foray into the theater began at the young age of four, and he spent his school years writing and directing plays. After graduating from the University of Birmingham with a dual degree in English literature and drama, during which he set up the small theater company Article 19 and hosted a radio show, he studied acting for three years at the London Academy of Music and Dramatic Art. In 2019, he helmed the comedy short The Toll Road, which screened on the indie festival circuit.

In 2018, he was prompted to retell the story on British daytime program This Morning: He had arrived outside of Caplan’s Los Angeles home and, deciding to freshen up with some Listerine mouthwash like a proper gent, accidentally got a face full of cactus.
He continued, saying he tried to “play it very cool” despite the fact that “my pupil had begun to leak, which I didn’t know was something that could happen. Turns out it is.” Since he was in the U.S., Riley had to brave the unwieldy American health care system, which led him to four operations at a whopping $5,000 each. In the end, however, he was fortunate, as the needle pierced the “tiny area of the eye I needed to not go blind, 2.5 millimeters [off] or something.”
When did Lizzy Caplan and Tom Riley get married?
After dating for a year, the couple went public with their relationship at the Prague Opera Ball in February 2016, per People. They were engaged three months later, and in June, Caplan debuted her engagement ring at the premiere of Now You See Me 2.
Both Caplan and Riley are extremely private and have forgone having social media accounts. In a 2016 interview with The Telegraph, Riley admitted he had no interest in that aspect of celebrity: “The idea of being a ‘power couple’ or in a relationship that is a ‘brand’ is just so unappealing to me,” he said.

In 2022, Caplan opened up to Grazia Magazine about the joys of motherhood.
About Riley, whom she called the “father of the century,” she added, “We got a lot of life in before we had a kid, so we were both very ready to do this. And it’s just so much more mind-blowing and better than you could imagine before actually going through with it. That’s been our experience.”
In a 2023 conversation with People, Caplan added that her family is now the “most important” part of her life as opposed to her work. Around that time, she appeared on Watch What Happens Live with Andy Cohen while promoting Fatal Attraction, revealing that the most romantic thing her husband had done for her was making a bound book out of talking with 150 people from her past for her 40th birthday. “He tracked down my high school boyfriend,” she recalled.
Lizzy Caplan’s previous relationship with Matthew Perry
The two met when he was 36 and she was 23, a fact he was certain of since he wrote that he had “crashed” her birthday party. After that first meeting, Perry detailed that the two embarked on a friends with benefits relationship before that transformed into deeper feelings of love. The couple didn’t discuss their relationship in public, but were spotted at various events together. At one point, he even seriously considered marriage. However, he said that his fears surrounding intimacy ultimately led him to forgo popping the question.
After they split in 2012, Perry invited her to his play in London, The End of Longing, which Caplan reportedly said she was too busy to attend, resulting in an email exchange that he deemed “harsh” in the memoir, per the New York Post. He concluded that they didn’t contact one another again, and wished her well.
