Destination Wedding star Winona Ryder has never been a bride in real life — and doesn’t plan on ever walking down the aisle, even though insiders say she’s more in love than ever with her boyfriend of 14 years, fashion designer Scott Mackinlay Hahn.
According to an insider, the 54-year-old Stranger Things alum credits Scott’s positive influence for keeping her on track and out of trouble more than two decades after she hit rock bottom and almost ruined her entire career following a humiliating arrest and trial for vandalism and shoplifting.
“Winona is still crazy about Scott all these years later,” says the insider. “They’re very much a partnership — he’s her dream man.”

The lovebirds split their time between New York, L.A. and Northern California, where her parents live. Scott, the cofounder of the sustainable fashion line Loomstate, even accompanies her when she shoots on location. And he’s got zero interest in the Hollywood lifestyle, which suits Winona to a T.
“People question why they aren’t married but Winona says they don’t need a piece of paper to be committed,” says the source.
The Reality Bites star told Time, “I’d rather never have been married than been divorced a few times,” adding, “When your parents are madly in love for 45 years, your standards are really high.”
“Winona is the kind of person who needs a lot of support and Scott is a solid dude. He’s there for her no matter what. He has a very calm demeanor, so anytime she’s stressing he knows just how to get her to calm down,” the insider reveals.
“A lot of people credit him with the new leaf she’s turned over. It happened right around when they started dating. The relationship has been nothing but good for her. All her friends say she hit the jackpot with him and it’s true.”
