It's tough to overstate how good Jeremy Allen White is on The Bear. The actor captures Carmy's desperation, sadness, and passion for cooking in every single scene. He was equally great in Shameless, Homecoming, and the movies Twelve and The Iron Claw. But there's no doubt that The Bear is Allen White's best role yet.

Jeremy Allen White has been private about his divorce. And he isn't one to spill about his romantic life. Although he said some sweet things about his wife Addison Timlin before they announced that they were breaking up, not much is known about his previous girlfriends. Did Jeremy Allen White have any relationships prior to marrying Addison Timlin?

Who Did Jeremy Allen Date Before Addison Timlin?

Jeremy Allen White's great Shameless salary must have been exciting. He has always made it clear that he is incredibly passionate about acting. And it seems like he is truly doing what he has been born to do. While some people dabble in acting because they're chasing fame, that's definitely not Allen White. It actually seems that he would probably rather not be a well-known figure at all. But, of course, he's so good at what he does that he has a huge fanbase now.

When he starred in the popular TV series as Lip Gallagher, he dated Emma Greenwell, who played Lip's crush and neighbor Mandy Milkovick. PopSugar reported that they split up in 2014 and began acting together in 2011. The actual dates of their relationship aren't known. But sometimes actors have so much chemistry on set that they explore their connection of screen and that's what happened here.

While Shameless is all about the Gallagher family who struggle every day of their lives, the show also had some dramatic romances. Lip and Mandy had one of the most talked about love stories. It wasn't entirely surprising to find out that Allen White and Greenwell were dating in real life.

Since fans don't even know that much about Jeremy Allen White and Addison Timlin's relationship, it makes sense that not much is known about his time with Emma Greenwell.

Emma Greenwell seems to be just as private as Jeremy Allen White. When they were together, the couple didn't talk about it. And now that they have been broken up for a while, they haven't mentioned their time together in interviews. Greenwell keeps a much lower profile than her famous ex. While the success of The Bear keeps Allen White in the public eye, she hasn't starred in any movies or TV shows that have really taken off.

In May 2021, the actress shared a wedding photo on her Instagram account and wrote in the caption "I wish I could marry you everyday." And in September 2022, she posted a picture of her baby son who was playing with some toys.

Although the Shameless actors didn't mention their relationship, they both appeared in a music video for the band Hot as Sun in 2013. According to Entertainment Weekly, they played a couple in the video for the song “When We Fell."

Greenwell doesn't have many other acting credits. After playing Mandy on Shameless, she starred in a few episodes of True Blood and one of Arrow. From 2016 to 2018, the starred in The Path, a Hulu series centered around Aaron Paul's character Eddie Lane who becomes involved in a cult called Meyerism.

Why Doesn't Jeremy Allen White Talk About His Relationship History?

Jeremy Allen White is definitely quiet about his relationships. It was only when he received a Golden Globe Award for The Bear in 2023 that Allen White mentioned Timlin in his speech. Before that, he hadn't talked much about his then-wife.

No one is sure if Jeremy Allen White dated anyone before Emma Greenwell. Because the now 32-year-old actor was 20 when he began starring on Shameless and then dated Greenwell, it's possible to guess that he had a few relationships during his high school years. Or maybe he was focused on the craft of acting instead and didn't want to date. While Allen White talks about realizing that he wanted to be an actor, he hasn't talked about other details of his teenage years.

Allen White told Fault Magazine, "I found that I was able to focus while performing which is something that I found difficult to do especially as a child, even still to this day. Acting was something I was always aware of, it was something both my parents did, when they were in their 20s and 30s. They met in NY doing theater, there was always a passion for theater, film, and the art of acting in our household growing up."
