If you’ve spent any time watching Severance or re-watching Parks and Recreation for the fifteenth time, you’ve probably wondered about the man behind Ben Wyatt. Specifically, who is Adam Scott married to and how has he managed to keep a relationship together in a town where marriages usually have the shelf life of an open carton of milk?
The answer is Naomi Scott (formerly Naomi Sablan). No, not the actress from Aladdin—though the two Naomi Scotts have actually met and joked about the name confusion. This Naomi is a powerhouse producer who has been the quiet force behind some of your favorite comedy projects.
They aren't just a couple; they're a full-blown creative team.
The Sunset Boulevard Meeting That Almost Wasn't
The story of how they met is pretty classic "early Los Angeles career" stuff. It was 1998. They were both in their early 20s. A mutual friend introduced them at a bar on Sunset Boulevard, but it wasn't exactly love at first sight for Naomi.
According to Adam, she "left promptly" after finding out he was an actor. Honestly? Fair. Actors in the late 90s weren't always the most stable bet. But she eventually saw him perform on stage and realized he actually had the chops to match the charm.

They dated for seven years before finally tying the knot in 2005. That’s a lifetime in Hollywood years.
Building an Empire: Gettin’ Rad Productions
Most couples struggle to agree on what to have for dinner. Adam and Naomi decided to start a company. In 2012, they launched Gettin’ Rad Productions. If you’ve seen the bizarrely brilliant The Greatest Event in Television History on Adult Swim, you’ve seen their work.
They’ve also produced:
- Other People (the 2016 Sundance hit)
- The Overnight
- Fun Mom Dinner
- Ghosted (the Fox paranormal comedy)
Naomi got her start as a segment producer on Jimmy Kimmel Live! back in 2003. She’s got the industry's "behind-the-scenes" DNA, which seems to balance perfectly with Adam’s front-of-camera career. He’s often said in interviews that he basically couldn't function without her. She handles the heavy lifting of producing while he focuses on the performance side, though they both share the creative vision.
The Family Life You Don't See on Instagram
Adam and Naomi have two kids: a son named Graham (born in 2006) and a daughter named Frankie (born in 2008).
They are notoriously private about their children. You won't find them starring in a family reality show or being used for "clout" on social media. Adam has mentioned that they try to keep the kids grounded and away from the "Hollywood stuff" as much as possible.
The couple has a pretty simple rule for staying happy: put the phone away. Adam once told Page Six that his secret to a long marriage was realizing that staring at an iPhone while your spouse is talking is a "bad strategy." Groundbreaking, right? But in 2026, it’s advice most of us still haven't mastered.
Clearing Up the "Two Adam Scotts" Confusion
Here is where things get tricky for Google searchers. If you search for "Adam Scott's wife," you might see results for a woman named Marie Kojzar.
Don't get confused. * Adam Scott (The Actor): Married to Naomi Scott since 2005. Lives in LA. Stars in Severance.
- Adam Scott (The Pro Golfer): Married to Marie Kojzar (a Swedish architect) since 2014. Lives in Switzerland/Bahamas. Has a great golf swing.
If you’re looking for the guy who played the "Ice Clown" of Partridge, Minnesota, you're looking for the one married to Naomi.
Why They Are the Ultimate "Low-Key" Power Couple
What makes them stand out is the lack of drama. You don't see them in the tabloids. They don't have public spats. Instead, they show up to red carpets, look genuinely happy to be there, and then go back to their quiet life in Los Angeles.
During the filming of Severance Season 1, Adam was going through a lot—his mother, Anne, passed away from ALS. He’s spoken about how having Naomi and the kids as a support system was the only way he made it through such a dark period while filming such an intense show.
Key Takeaways for Fans
If you're looking for the blueprint on how to make a high-profile relationship work, the Scotts provide a pretty good one:
- Collaborate: Find ways to share your passions (like their production company).
- Privacy: Keep the kids out of the spotlight to give them a normal childhood.
- Presence: Put the phone in a drawer and actually listen to your partner.
- Humor: Don't take the "Hollywood" part of life too seriously.
To keep up with their latest work, keep an eye on the production credits of Severance or any upcoming Great Scott Productions (the rebranded name for Gettin' Rad) projects. You can also follow Adam on Instagram for the occasional, very sweet tribute to Naomi, though she usually stays behind the lens.
