Helen Hunt Is Officially Off the Market
Hey there, friends! Let’s talk about one of our favorite actresses, Helen Hunt. The star of "Mad About You" is no longer flying solo. An insider exclusively told Closer Weekly that Helen is dating a wonderful guy named Steven Tepper. And guess what? Things seem to be going smoothly for this couple. In fact, Steven, who used to be an attorney, spent Thanksgiving with Helen and her family. That’s a big deal, folks!
Why Is Helen Keeping Things Low-Key?
Here’s the scoop: Helen and Steven are definitely an item. According to sources, Helen is really into Steven and hopes things work out between them. But here’s the kicker—she’s not going public with the relationship just yet. Why? Because Steven is a super-private, regular guy who prefers staying out of the spotlight. Helen, being the thoughtful person she is, doesn’t want to overwhelm him with the celebrity lifestyle. At 57 years old, she knows what she wants and is taking things slow and steady.

Family Approval: Makena Loves Steven
Luckily, Steven has already won over Helen’s inner circle, including her 16-year-old daughter, Makena Lei Carnahan. “Makena likes him, and that goes a long way in Helen’s book,” the source reveals. For Helen, family approval is crucial, and it’s clear that Steven has made a great impression. “Helen deserves happiness, and Steven makes her happy,” the source adds. That’s music to our ears!

Back in May 2020, Steven posted a beautiful photo of Makena on Instagram to celebrate her birthday. His caption said it all: “That’s Mak. She is, in a word, spectacular.” He continued, “Happy, happy 16th birthday, @makena__lei. You are the BEST!!!” It’s clear that Steven has a genuine connection with Makena, and that’s a big deal for Helen.
Helen’s Support for Steven’s Passion
Around the same time, Helen began commenting on Steven’s Instagram page. She frequently praised his photography skills, calling his work “beautiful.” In June, she commented on one of his posts, saying, “Just an incredible photo.” Later, in November, she complimented his talent again, writing, “Oh, Tepper. So good!” It’s evident that Helen is not only supportive of Steven but also genuinely appreciates his creative side.
