Emma Stone celebrates 36th birthday with husband.
Emma Stone and her husband, Dave McCary, who met while working on “Saturday Night Live” in 2016, lead a private life away from the spotlight. The couple, known for their low-key relationship, welcomed their daughter, Louise Jean McCary, into the world in 2021. Together, they also share a production company, further cementing their collaborative partnership. Stone has often spoken about her fulfilling personal life, expressing how happy she is with her family and career. As she celebrates her 36th birthday, the actress reflects on her “great life” with McCary and their growing family.
Emma Stone celebrated her 36th birthday on November 6, marking a milestone year filled with career triumphs and personal joy. The actress, who had a standout year in 2024, made waves with her performance in Poor Things, which earned her a Golden Globe and, later, her second Academy Award for Best Actress.
Stone and McCary, who met on the set of Saturday Night Live in 2016, are known for their private lifestyle, often keeping their personal lives away from the public eye. Despite their low-key presence, the couple occasionally makes public appearances, such as attending baseball games to support their beloved San Diego Padres. However, when it comes to award shows, Stone doesn’t hesitate to give McCary credit for being her unwavering support system.
At the Golden Globe Awards in January 2024, when she won Best Actress in a Comedy or Musical for Poor Things, Stone made sure to dedicate her victory to McCary. In her acceptance speech, she shared an emotional moment, starting by thanking her husband before anyone else. “This is amazing, thank you. I love you very much. Thank you for everything!” she said, an acknowledgment that warmed the hearts of fans and spotlighted the couple’s strong bond.
Later that year, when Stone won her second Academy Award for Best Actress for her role in Poor Things, her gratitude extended beyond just her husband. After thanking the cast and crew of the film, Stone made sure to honor her family, including McCary and their daughter, Louise Jean McCary. Louise, who was nearing her third birthday at the time, has played a pivotal role in turning Stone’s life “technicolor,” as the actress lovingly described.
Stone’s speech was heartfelt and moving. She expressed, “I know I have to wrap up, but I really just want to thank my family. Then, turning her attention to Louise, Stone quoted a line from Taylor Swift’s song “Bigger Than the Whole Sky,” telling her daughter, “I love you bigger than the whole sky, my girl.”
It’s clear from her words that Stone’s family means the world to her, and her relationship with McCary, who has been a steady presence in her life, continues to flourish. Though the couple keeps much of their private life out of the spotlight, Stone often shares glimpses of her love for McCary, showing appreciation for the ways he supports her both personally and professionally.
The actress has previously spoken about how motherhood has changed her perspective, with her daughter adding a “technicolor” layer of joy and meaning to every day. Stone, McCary, and Louise are clearly a close-knit family, and their shared moments of celebration and gratitude reflect the deep bond they share.
As Stone navigates her continued success in Hollywood, it’s clear that her family remains her foundation. Whether she’s accepting awards or simply sharing precious moments with her loved ones, Stone consistently acknowledges the role her husband and daughter play in her happiness and fulfillment. McCary, a writer and director, remains an integral part of her journey, offering love and support as she continues to shine in her career.
Looking back on her achievements and the joy of her family, it’s no wonder Stone describes her life as “great.” Between her accomplishments on screen and the love she shares with McCary and their daughter, 2024 has been a year of personal and professional triumphs. As she turns 36, Emma Stone’s journey continues to inspire, as she remains grounded in the love and support of her closest family members.
