Is Ricky Whittle married? There is no news of the actor having tied the knot as of now. On the other hand, there have been speculations about the star's dating life since 2015. He has dated his co-stars and yoga instructor, among others, but none of the relationships seem to have lasted.

The 'American Gods' actor has Morgan Whittle listed as his spouse on his official Wikipedia page. But the actor's Instagram account doesn't give us any hints about who he may be dating in the present. So, everybody seems to be assuming that the 39-year-old actor is single at the moment. 

With his show set to return to Starz on January 10, speculations about who Whittle is dating have resurfaced. So let's take a quick look at a few of his past relationships that hit headlines.

In 2015, Whittle made news when he was spotted with a mystery lady at an airport in Canada. The woman was later identified as Sara. However, the relationship did not last long as media reports indicated that the two broke up within two months. Whittle had, at this point, not even confirmed his relationship officially, and had instead said, “I’m single and focused on work and making myself better than I was yesterday. I’m happy with life. I’m just trying to be a real person and, hopefully, when the right person comes along...”

Then in 2017, he began dating a yoga instructor – Kristina Colonna. They had especially made news when they were spotted together, stepping out for a date night in matching outfits, looking drop-dead gorgeous. The duo was even called one of Hollywood's hottest couple at the time. Pictures of the two were snapped by paparazzi and there was a lot of buzz about the two of them going the extra mile as well, however, things did not last. 

But before this, the actor is said to have dated actor Rumer Willis in 2014, however, the couple parted ways very soon. A source who was quoted by media reports at the time, had claimed, “It all got to be too much for Ricky. He asked her to tone it down, but she refused. Her look at me act wore Ricky down. It's a shame because he liked her."

The longest relationship that the actor was possibly in goes back to the time when he had dated Carley Stenson in 2007. The couple did part ways when three years later it was speculated that one of the partners had cheated. Further adding to this speculation, Whittle had also got close to his dancing partner Natalie Lowe, while the two had competed in the BBC One dance reality show 'Strictly Come Dancing'. It is not surprising that the actor would keep his personal life private and away from the spotlight considering how he has always been tight-lipped about his family.

'American Gods' Season 3, the show that Whittle will next be seen in next, is scheduled to premiere on Starz on January 10.
