LOS ANGELES, CALIFORNIA: Mayim Bialik is in a relationship with Jonathan Cohen, and the couple have been together for over a decade.

Jonathan Cohen, a writer, poet, producer, and 'futurist', holds an MFA and has experience in the entertainment and wellness industries.

With a BFA in film, cinema, and video studies from the University of Victoria, Cohen's diverse background contributes to his roles.

Leveraging over two decades of mindfulness and healing expertise, Cohen serves as the CXO and creative director of Lotic.ai. 'The Breakdown' podcast, initiated during the COVID-19 pandemic, is one of Cohen's ventures.

Much like Mayim Bialik, who is a dedicated mother to sons Miles and Frederick from her previous marriage, Cohen is also a devoted parent to his son.

How did ‘Celebrity IOU’ star Mayim Bialik meet Jonathan Cohen?

Over a decade ago, Mayim Bialik and Jonathan Cohen first crossed paths at a toddler's birthday party, their initial connection grounded in a shared passion for mental health awareness.

As their bond deepened, they transitioned from friends to partners.

In January 2021, the couple embarked on a new venture, co-launching the podcast 'Mayim Bialik's Breakdown', a project where Cohen serves as co-host and executive producer.

The podcast became a platform for them to discuss various topics, including mental health.

While the couple tends to keep their relationship relatively private, the podcast provides glimpses into their dynamics.

Why did ‘Celebrity IOU’ star Mayim Bialik split from Michael Stone?

Mayim Bialik was married to ex-husband Michael Stone from 2003 to 2012 and they welcomed two sons together — Frederick and Miles. Mayim Bialik tied the knot with Michael Stone on August 31, 2003, in a Victorian-themed ceremony enriched with traditional Jewish wedding customs.

The couple divorced citing "irreconcilable differences" but have maintained an amicable relationship and value their privacy.

At the time, Mayim issued a statement expressing gratitude for respecting their privacy and assuring that they would be "ok", according to THE SUN

"Our privacy has always been important and is even more so now, and we thank you in advance for respecting it as we negotiate this new terrain. We will be ok," Mayim said.

The former couple requested joint legal and physical custody of their children, emphasizing their commitment to co-parenting, a journey they have continued since then.

Why did ‘Celebrity IOU’ star Mayim Bialik shift to television?

In 2010, Bialik chose to return to television, shifting away from her scientific career, driven by the desire to spend more quality time with her children.

The upcoming season of 'Celebrity IOU' will feature actress and 'Jeopardy!' host Mayim Bialik, Sterling K Brown, Rosario Dawson, Anna Faris, Regina Hall, Ray Romano, Zoe Saldana, and Fran Drescher.
