Jude Lawand his wife, Phillipa Coan, live a pretty private life.

TheFantastic Beastsstar and the psychologist reportedly met through mutual friends and were first linked in 2015. Four years later, the couple shocked fans when theytied the knot in a low-key surprise wedding ceremony in London. They went on to welcome their first child in 2020 and their second in 2023.

Law prefers to keep his relationship with his wife quiet and rarely shares details about their life together — so private, in fact, that they haven’t even announced their children’s names.

Coan is an accomplished behavioral psychologist with a passion for helping organizations prioritize both sustainability and employee engagement. She even owns her own business.

“We enjoy a very healthy relationshipwhere we talk a lot about how we feel, our relationships with friends, relationships with our families, and she has a wonderful perspective on all of that,” Law toldGQof his wife in November 2024.

She’s passionate about sustainability

Sustainability is a passion point for Coan in her professional life — but she also knows that living an eco-conscious personal life requires commitment.

“I have learnt so much from others about how to be more sustainable from reducing plastic and chemicals brought into my home, eating less meat, monitoring and reducing our household energy consumption, and exploring alternative travel options where possible,” shetold Eco-age.comin 2019. “I’m also aware how difficult it can be. I face challenges with my own sustainable behavior every day. I often need to take a step back, review my behavior, spot where I can make positive changes and commit to them.”

She and Law are very private

While Coan is occasionallyseen at eventswith Law, she and her husband prefer to keep their relationship under wraps. Privacy is essential for the pair — and in 2017, Law said that their relationship has thrived because of it.

“She’s mine and no one else’s. I’m very, very happy,” he toldModern Luxury. “A large part of that is the fact that she’s a very private person. And our relationship is a very private thing, and I think part of the fact it works so well is exactly because of that.”
