Dermot Mulroney. You know him as a pretty face and a talented actor, but did you know he’s also a lovable family man? Yes, he’s managed to build a 16-year-long marriage with Tharita Cesaroni.

And let me tell you, that woman is a catch. What? You don’t know her? Well, we have to do something about that. Just sit back, relax, and enjoy this comprehensive post.

You’ve probably heard Tharita Cesaroni’s name before—after all, she’s Dermot Mulroney’s wife, though she didn’t take his last name. So, she’s no stranger to public appearances.

Here’s the catch: Despite being married to a famous actor, people don’t know much about Cesaroni. She’s managed to keep her life private from the public.

That’s not easy to pull off in the internet age, but you could say she’s had some practice. What does that mean?

Well, born on October 31, 1973, in Milan, Italy, Tharita is the daughter of Emy Cesaroni, a famous Italian singer/actress. So, she has some experience with facing/avoiding the spotlight.

Cesaroni grew up with a passion for art and creativity as the daughter of a renowned singer. So, it’s only natural she’d grow up to be an artist. What kind of art did she pursue?

Like her mother, Cesaroni decided to pursue singing, but she was also interested in cinematography and film production.

Honestly, though, I can’t say that she found much success as a producer. Her only credited work is Calvin Reeder’s The Rambler (2013), which bombed in theaters.

Cesaroni started her music career later in life (2017) under the alias Prima Apollinaare. Her debut, Stand Up for Love, was well-received and later became an album. It’s ironic. The woman who actively stays away from the public view also makes music videos on YouTube.

As mentioned, Cesaroni is married to the famous actor Dermot Mulroney. The man has done it all: Comedy, drama, romance, etc. But he wasn’t always known for his versatility.

At the beginning of his acting career, everyone knew Mulroney as a drama actor. That’s only natural given how his earliest works are Sin of Innocence (1986), Daddy (1987), Staying Together (1989), and Unconquered (1989).

However, someone with Mulroney’s range would never accept that limiting label, so he started diversifying his works. You might have seen him nail his role in Paul Hogan’s romantic comedy My Best Friend’s Wedding (1997).

That wasn’t even a significant change compared to what came next. Who would’ve thought that the man who appeared in Survival Quest would go on to play a male escort in Clare Kilner’s The Wedding Date?

That was unlike anything the people have seen from Mulroney, but he proved that he’s not a one-trick pony.

Tharita Cesaroni’s Marriage

If you don’t know, Tharita isn’t Mulroney’s first wife. He married her in 2008, one year after divorcing his first wife of 19 years, Catherine Keener.

The couple welcomed their first daughter, Mabel Ray, in 2008 and her younger sister, Sally, a year later. Some might think Mulroney marrying Tharita one year after finalizing his divorce is too quick.

That’s true, but the couple seem to be as in love today as they were when they first met. So, why not let them be happy?

Final Thoughts

Ultimately, there isn’t much available information about Tharita Cesaroni. That’s why most people label her as Dermot Mulroney’s wife. However, the woman was an accomplished artist/individual before her marriage, so there’s more to her than being a wife.
