Cynthia Erivo’s Husband, a two-time Oscar contender, has piqued the interest of fans. The London-born actress and singer made her Broadway debut in Oprah Winfrey’s The Color Purple in 2015. As the lead, Celie, Erivo delighted audiences and won standing ovations night after night, a role she returned to for a limited worldwide run of the production in 2013.
Her performance was nominated for a Tony Award for Best Actress in a Musical in 2016, while the production was nominated the same night for Best Revival of a Musical. In 2017, she and the cast of the show got a Daytime Emmy for a performance on The Today Show and a Grammy for Best Musical Theater Album. Erivo portrayed Harriet Tubman in the 2019 film Harriet, for which she was nominated for two Golden Globes in 2020. Her second award was for Best Original Song for “Stand Up,” a musical she wrote.
Cynthia Erivo Relationship with Mario Martinez
Cynthia is not yet married, thus we cannot call Mario Martinez Cynthia Erivo’s spouse, but they have a strong affinity. The actress met Mario when she was dating actor Dean John-Wilson. They began dating in 2013. In 2016, she was seen on the red carpet with him as he was playing Prince Ali in the West End version of Aladdin. So, before meeting Mario, she had been dating Dean for around three years. Despite the fact that Mario was not another actor, they both worked in the same field and saw one other on a regular basis.
In 2019, she confessed to Vanity Fair that Mario pursued Cynthia despite the fact that she was already dating Dean. He ultimately struck gold and made his big move shortly after she and Dean split up. After their separation, Mario just approached her and kissed her. That was the first time the two met. When the tale was published in 2019, they had been dating for two years. This implies that they started dating in 2017. They even went to the Krug Event in Miami together and looked to be in love.
Cynthia is quite private about her love life. In 2019, she did, however, devote many special articles to him. One of them was a monochrome Valentine’s Day post in which she proclaimed her love for him. She also gave him a lovely message for his birthday. She erased those postings at the end of 2019, causing some to assume they were no longer together. However, there is no conclusive evidence, and the two may still be happy together. Fans of the actress can only hope that she will marry soon and that we will get to meet Cynthia Erivo’s spouse.
Cynthia Erivo’s Career Began
Cynthia Erivo, who was born in London in 1987 to Nigerian immigrants, started acting on stage at the age of 11 and went on to have considerable success, starring as Juliet in the Young Vic youth version of “Romeo & Juliet” at the age of 15 and appearing in various commercials. She had intended to major in music psychology in college, but a serendipitous encounter with her Young Vic director convinced her to remain and train at the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art.
She starred as Deloris Van Cartier in the UK tour of “Sister Act,” a musical based on the 1992 film starring Whoopi Goldberg, in 2011. Contrary to popular belief, Erivo portrayed Celie Harris in the 2013 London production of “The Color Purple,” a role Goldberg created in the 1985 film adaptation. Erivo was the only member of the British cast to follow the production to Broadway in 2015, playing the same role as Jennifer Hudson.
After making her theatrical debut, she secured a recurring role in the historical drama “Mister. Selfridge” (PBS/ITV, 2013-). Her breakthrough roles include “Bad Times at the El Royale” (2018) and Steve McQueen’s collaboration with Gillian Flynn, “Widows” (2018).
