Penn Badgley Says Being a Dad and a Stepdad Are Two 'Very Different' Things

The 'You' star is dad to a 3-year-old son and stepfather to 15-year-old Cassius.

"I have an interesting situation where I have a biological son and a stepson," shared Badgley, who tied the knot with Kirke in 2017, after they began dating in 2014. That being said, Badgley credited the 2014 Tom Cruise and Emily Blunt sci-fi action epic, Edge of Tomorrow, for giving them an opportunity to connect. As for his marriage to Kirke, Badgley spoke in February 2023 about how his dedication to fidelity led him to ask the showrunner on his hit Netflix drama-thriller, You, to limit his intimate scenes as much as possible.
