“I’m a very, very lucky person who’s very happy right now,” Hawke told People at the SXSW Conference & Festivals in Austin, Texas. “And yeah, [I] couldn’t be more grateful.”

“I feel so lucky to have found my best friend and to have someone I can tell anything to,” Hawke told Page Six on Thursday of her spouse, who is a singer-songwriter. “It makes something like getting married feel like, ‘Oh, of course,’ you know, not like, ‘What?’ And I’m very, very, very lucky, so I’m really happy.”
She added that she’s “ecstatically happy” following her wedding. “I mean … love is the best,” Hawke revealed.

Maya and Hutson’s wedding day was unexpected as the pair never publicly announced their engagement.
The newlyweds dated for roughly three years before they walked down the aisle. They were first romantically linked in 2023.
Maya opened up about finding love with Hutson in 2024 during an appearance on The Zach Sang Show.
Millie Bobby Brown, Gaten Matarazzo and the rest of the Stranger Things cast have evolved tremendously since the show began in 2016. The once relatively unknown actors burst into the Hollywood industry full speed ahead after the drama’s massive success. “I don’t think Netflix thought it was going to be as huge as it became, […]
“I cannot recommend highly enough dating your friends. It’s the best,” she gushed. “They know you, and as a human being who has dated other people. They really know you as a person who has feelings … not just a piece of paper for them to project their image of [the] perfect girlfriend onto. It’s the best to feel seen in that way.”
That same year, Hutson peeled back the curtain on his and Maya’s working relationship after recording several songs together.
“I just have so much fun writing with her, similar to Phoebe [Bridgers],” Hutson told Extra in November 2024. “I think she really understands how my brain works and is very good at helping flesh out the little world. It’s fun to be bouncing these characters around with her, and it’s just unbelievable.”
