Taylor Lautner loves him a Taylor. The Twilight star, who famously dated Taylor Swift for a few months in 2009, is now married to Taylor Lautner (née Dome), a healthcare worker-slash-influencer he met through his sister. (Dome changed her last name to Lautner, but in the interest of preserving everyone’s sanity, we’ll refer to her as “Dome” going forward.)
"[My sister] called me and said, 'Dude, I found your future wife. You need to meet this girl,’” Lautner recalled in an interview with People. “And the rest is history."

Lautner found love outside of the Hollywood bubble, marrying nurse and wellness influencer Taylor Dome.
How did Taylor Lautner meet his wife?
The couple met through Lautner’s sister, Makena, in 2018. Recounting the story on The Kelly Clarkson Show in 2022, Lautner told Clarkson that his sister suggested he throw a game night so she could invite Dome and stage a set-up.
"I love game nights. She's like, 'Throw a game night, invite me and some of my friends over, and I'll bring Tay,’” he said. “‘She'll just be one of them, and you guys can just meet.’”
Needless to say, Lautner and Dome hit it off.
When did Taylor Lautner get married?
Lautner and Dome tied the knot on Nov. 11, 2022 — a year to the day after Lautner proposed in their L.A. kitchen — at Epoch Estate Wines outside Paso Robles, Calif.
Their pastor pal Judah Smith officiated the ceremony, according to Vogue, and the couple exchanged handwritten vows.
“I felt like I was in a fairytale,” Dome told the outlet. “Everything was so beautiful — I was absolutely blown away. I remember looking around during the ceremony and just being in awe of everything. As we exchanged rings, I just kept thinking, ‘Oh my gosh, I can’t believe we are actually doing this!’ We have dreamt of this day for so long, and it was so beyond perfect.”

A post shared by Taylor Lautner (@taylorlautner)
Dome is a nurse and the founder of LEMONS by Tay, a self-care and mental health website where she shares mental health exercises, tips and resources. She also co-hosts a podcast with Lautner called “The Squeeze,” in which they talk about all-things mental health (the pod launched in January 2023).
Is Taylor Lautner’s wife still a nurse?
Dome completed her nursing education in 2019, writing on Instagram, “I am so thankful for everything this nursing program has taught me, the life long friends it has given me, & so so grateful for my support system that has stuck by me throughout it. Nursing has become one of my biggest passions and I can’t wait to start working and saving lives!”
She was employed at a hospital when the second COVID-19 surge hit, and the burnout she experienced as a result was in part the inspiration for LEMONS by Tay.
“After experiencing all that I did in the hospital, I now find myself struggling with depression, anxiety and PTSD,” she wrote on the site’s “about” page. “...It was all of this that made me realize, even if one does not have a history of struggling with a mental illness, it is still so important to prioritize your mental health.”
It’s unclear if Dome is still a practicing nurse now. She references in passing on her site that she “left the hospital” where she had worked during COVID-19, but she doesn’t indicate whether she’s scrubbing in elsewhere.
She did. Lautner joked on the “Good Guys” podcast that it makes sorting packages a challenging task in their household.
“We need to figure something out because when I'm buying stuff for her, and she's buying stuff for me, we're going to have some surprises spoiled if we open the wrong Taylor Lautner package," he said.
Does Taylor Lautner have a baby?
The Lautners do not have a baby at this time, but if they do decide to procreate, they’ll need to come up with a name other than Taylor for their baby. There’s only so much confusion a household can handle!
What happened with Taylor Lautner and Taylor Swift?
Swift and Lautner dated briefly after co-starring in the movie Valentine's Day(playing a couple, naturally), but she broke up with him for unknown (and seemingly undramatic) reasons.
In a 2023 episode of “Call Her Daddy,” Lautner confirmed that Swift was “absolutely” the one to end their relationship. “I’m thinking back on exactly what happened. But no, yeah, she did,” he said, without adding details.

The Taylors dated for a handful of months, from Fall 2009 until December of that year.
What songs did Taylor Swift write about Taylor Lautner?
He inspired her songs “Today Was a Fairytale” (she mentions his dark gray t-shirt in the track) and “Back to December,” which was a song about their split.
Are Taylor Lautner and Taylor Swift friends now?
They sure are! In fact, they're so friendly these days that he starred in her music video for “I Can See You” in July 2023.
“Honestly I would say one of the greater things to happen in my life over the last year is the rekindling of our friendship,” Lautner said on “Call Her Daddy” that year.
Swift also had nice things to say about Lautner. Inviting him to join her on stage at her Eras tour stop in Kansas City to premiere the “I Can See You” music video, she told the crowd: “He was a very positive force in my life when I was making the Speak Now album, and I want to say he did every single stunt that you saw in that music video. He and his wife have become some of my closest friends, and it’s very convenient because we all share the same first name.”
