Dick Van Dyke is one of the most beloved entertainers of all time — but that doesn’t mean his love life has been a jolly holiday. After settling down with his hometown sweetheart before he became famous, Van Dyke had an adulterous affair in the ’70s and early ’80s that turned into a 30+ year romantic partnership. And in 2012, at age 86, Van Dyke officially married for the second time, to a woman 46 years his junior. As we approach Van Dyke’s 100th birthday on December 13, 2025, it’s the perfect time to look back at the personal side of the star’s life.
