Let’s talk about love—true, deep, and rekindled love. Recently, on the red carpet, none other than William Shatner and his on-again wife, Elizabeth, looked like they were on top of the world. It wasn’t just the glitz and glam of the event; it was the unmistakable joy radiating from the couple. Sources close to them are spilling details about how they’ve found their way back to each other, happier than ever as they head into 2025.
According to an exclusive insider scoop with Closer, their journey back to each other began during the quarantine period. "They reconnected over quarantine, and they’re so glad they did," the source reveals. "Whatever issues they once faced seem to have disappeared or were resolved. William has vowed never to let his stubborn side get in the way of their relationship again. Around her, he’s like a kitten—soft, tender, and fully present." It’s a heartwarming transformation for the legendary Star Trek actor.
Rekindling the Flame: Low-Key Bliss
There’s something beautiful about how they’ve chosen to keep their love simple and meaningful. "They’re very low-key and genuinely appreciate the time they spend together," the source explains. "Elizabeth has this incredible ability to keep William grounded, calm, and healthy. She’s truly his soulmate, and he lights up when she shares her silly jokes with him. It’s clear that they’ve found their perfect rhythm together." Their bond isn’t just romantic—it’s a partnership that enriches both their lives.

Back in October, William, now 93, and Elizabeth made a public appearance together at Cirque du Soleil in Santa Monica. This outing was significant because it signaled their desire to share their happiness with the world. "It’s a big deal to see them stepping out in public, but they want everyone to know they’re very much together and incredibly happy," the insider adds. As they look ahead to 2025, there’s a sense of excitement and promise in the air for this couple.
A Journey Through Divorce and Rediscovery
It hasn’t always been smooth sailing for William and Elizabeth. William filed for divorce in 2019, and the couple finalized their split in March 2020. But life has a way of bringing people back together when it’s meant to be. In a candid interview with The Mirror in June 2020, William opened up about how the divorce affected him. "Nothing makes me sad at this age," he confessed, showing his resilience and maturity. Even as he jokingly referred to himself as a "heartthrob at 89," it was clear that he was embracing life with open arms and a sense of humor.
When asked what it felt like to be back on the dating scene, William didn’t miss a beat. "How does it feel to be a heartthrob at 89? Well... it heightens my blood pressure!" he quipped, proving that his charm and wit are as sharp as ever. Yet, despite his playful demeanor, it seems that his heart always belonged to Elizabeth.

In March 2024, William confirmed the news everyone had been waiting for: he and Elizabeth were back together. Speaking with Parade, he shared his little secret with the world. "I’m living with my former wife," he revealed. "We’ve, in effect, remarried. But we haven’t done another ceremony." When asked if they might consider a second wedding, William was clear: "I don’t think so, for a number of reasons." He explained that their divorce was rooted in practical concerns rather than a lack of love, and he’s taken steps to ensure those issues don’t resurface.
Partners in Life: A Family Reunited
Through it all, William has maintained a deep belief in love and partnership. "I’ve often heard about married couples being partners in life, and I think that’s what Elizabeth and I have achieved," he reflected. "We’re partners. We help each other navigate through life." This partnership extends beyond just the two of them; it includes their family as well. Since reuniting, William says his family feels closer than ever.
"We eat together frequently," he shared. "Most every week, we have a day—Sunday night—when the family gets together. And there are birthdays, of course." The convenience of having most of his family nearby makes these gatherings even more special. "The 15 people in my immediate family—about 10 of them live within a couple of miles of my house. The other five are only 25, 30 miles away," he explained. It’s clear that William cherishes the connections he’s built with Elizabeth and their loved ones.
