Jacob Batalon marries interior designer Veronica Leahov
Actor Jacob Batalon, known for his role as Ned Leeds in Marvel's Spider-Man films, has married his longtime partner, interior designer Veronica Leahov. The news, confirmed by multiple reports, follows weeks of speculation after Batalon was seen wearing a gold band on his left hand and referred to Leahov as his wife in a recent interview.
The marriage appears to have been a private ceremony, with details kept out of the public eye. Leahov seemingly confirmed the union by updating her professional website to list her surname as "Veronica Leahov Batalon." The couple had announced their engagement in March 2025, sharing photos of a New York City proposal. In interviews earlier this year, Batalon had indicated that wedding planning was nearly complete, crediting Leahov with organizing most of the arrangements.
The news broke as Batalon promoted the latest Marvel film, "Spider-Man: Brand New Day," which premiered last week. During a joint interview with co-stars Tom Holland and Zendaya, Batalon joked about nicknames, saying, "My wife calls me big dog. She doesn't. I wish she did." Holland and Zendaya themselves confirmed their own marriage last month.
