From Fergie to Barbra Streisand: The ‘Ransom Canyon’ Cast’s Real-Life Romances Revealed
From musicians to superstar athletes, the 'Ransom Canyon' cast has had some high-profile romances
While we’re anticipating Ransom Canyon to bring the romance on screen, off screen, the actors and actresses behind these exciting characters have had some pretty high-profile love stories themselves. From Josh Duhamel’s marriage to one of the biggest musicians in the world to Minka Kelly’s relationship with one of baseball’s most notable figures, read about the real-life relationships of the Ransom Canyon cast.
Josh Duhamel and Kristy Pierce
In the early 2000s, Josh Duhamel was linked to aspiring actress Kristy Pierce. In a 2003 interview with Philip Berk, the actor said, “She obviously has something that sets her apart, and sets a little fire inside me. I’m not sure what it is exactly, but a lot of it is her sense of humor, her heart, her thoughtfulness for people, and stuff like that, which is essential if a relationship is to last.” Though at the time Duhamel had said that they planned to get married, they eventually went their separate ways.
Josh Duhamel and Fergie
Fergie, known for her association with the music group the Black Eyed Peas, and Josh Duhamel met back in 2004, and after a few years of dating, they tied the knot in 2009. In 2013, they welcomed their first child, Axl, however, a few years later, this famous couple would split and by 2019, their divorce was finalized.
“All we want is the best for our son, so it’s a bit of a juggling act but we’re both grown ups who can handle a lot,” Duhamel told E! News in 2018. “And he’s happy. That’s the main thing.”
Josh Duhamel and Eiza Gonzalez
After Josh’s split from Fergie, he was linked to actress Eiza Gonzalez, however, their fling only lasted a few months.
Josh Duhamel and Audra Mari
Josh Duhamel was first linked to former pageant queen Audra Mari in 2019, and their love has blossomed over the years. The couple tied the knot in 2022 and last year, they welcomed a son, Shepherd.
“We’re perfect for each other,” he told E! News in 2022. “She’s an amazing girl. She keeps me grounded. She keeps it real. We’re from the same home state and love lake life. We spend a lot of time on the lake together.”
James Brolin and Jane Cameron Agee
James Brolin, who portrays Cap in Ransom Canyon, has been married three times. His first marriage was to Jane Cameron Agee in 1966, whom he shares sons Josh Brolin and Jess Brolin with. In 1994, they split up, and tragically, she passed away in 1995 after her car crashed into a tree.
James Brolin and Jan Smithers
Brolin’s second marriage was to Jan Smithers, who played Bailey Quarters on WKRP in Cincinnati, and it lasted from 1986 to 1995. While together, they welcomed a daughter, Molly.
James Brolin and Barbra Streisand
Brolin’s current marriage to songstress Barbra Streisand has been going strong since 1996, and this adorable duo is happy as can be.
Minka Kelly and Taylor Kitsch
Minka Kelly, who plays Quinn on Ransom Canyon, has also had a few high-profile relationships, but at the peak of her fame, the actress was linked to her Friday Night Lights costar, Taylor Kitsch, who played the part of Tim Riggins on the hit drama series. The two dated while filming for the show, and Kelly has since opened up about the toll that their relationship took. “All the effort I might have invested in connecting consistently with the girls on the show went to Taylor,” she wrote in her memoir, Tell Me Everything. “So, when my relationship with Taylor became toxic, I had no one to turn to.”

Minka Kelly and Derek Jeter
Perhaps one of Kelly’s most notable romances was with the former Yankees superstar, who she was with from 2008 to 2011. While these two didn’t necessarily hit it out of the park, their romance was a home run in terms of pop culture history.
Minka Kelly and Trevor Noah
Minka was with television host Trevor Noah from 2020 to 2022. During their time together, they often publicly shared glimpses into their romance on social media, but ultimately, they went their separate ways.
