Jessy Schram’s Future Husband Is Photographer Sterling Taylor – All We Know About Their Relationship

Jessy Schram’s offscreen relationship is just as interesting as her many dalliances in film. She was with her boyfriend, now-fiancé Sterling Taylor, for a long time before they got engaged in 2021. She is also a fur mom and travels everywhere with her hairless cat, Pirate.

Illinois-born actress Jessy Schram launched her career as a 10-year-old after signing an acting and modeling deal with the Stewart Talent Agency in Chicago. She was soon booking numerous commercials, print campaigns, and voice-overs. At 18, she made the bold move from Chicago to Los Angeles to try her hand at acting.

The risk soon bore fruit as she took the world by storm with her roles in fan-favorite films and TV shows such as “Falling Drama,” “Chicago Med,” “Mad Men,” “Nashville,” and “Last Resort.”

Even with such enviable TV roles, the actress has also leaned towards the Hallmark Channel, appearing in cult classics such as “The Birthday Wish,” “A Royal New Year’s Eve,” and “Road to Christmas.”

Her other acting credits include playing alongside Lake Bell and Jon Bernthal in “Shot Caller,” as well as with Chris Pine in the action-thriller “Unstoppable.” Besides acting, she is also a singer-songwriter and has performed countrywide in clubs and concert venues and toured with Joan Baby’s soul band.

Her success in film has continued to snowball with her numerous portrayals of love in an array of films. She has played Pete Campbell’s kindred spirit in “Mad Men” and brought to life the fairytale in “Once Upon a Time,” where she plays Cinderella.

She has also taken on many other roles, such as playing Julia, who finds her way to true love in “American Winter Romance.” But how is her love life away from the screens? Who is Schram’s spouse?

Jessy Schram Has Amazing On-Screen Chemistry With Nick Gehlfuss

One of Schram’s most famous roles is playing Dr. Hannah Asher, an obstetrician-gynecologist who, despite a passion for giving her patients a second chance at life, struggles with addiction. Nevertheless, she and Dr. Will Halstead (played by Nick Gehlfuss) have an enviable on-screen chemistry in the medical drama “Chicago Med.”

In addition to a wonderful bond, Schram admires Gehlfuss’ work ethic. She disclosed that the actor cared a lot about his work, and so did she.

That is perhaps why their onscreen relationship has remained captivating to fans for the entirety of the show. She confessed:

“I personally absolutely adore working with Nick Gehlfuss.”

Despite their beautiful chemistry on screen, the two have real-life partners. Gehlfuss is married to Lilian Matsuda, while Schram is also engaged.

Jessy Schram Is Engaged to Photographer Sterling Taylor

Schram has been with her partner Sterling Taylor for a while now, and the two enjoy bonding over their shared love for adventure. Taylor is a photographer whose credits include most of Schram’s Instagram photos.

He loves to explore and used his skills during his road trip through 49 states in 2015. He is also the author of “The Motorcycle Dirtbag.”

The pair had been dating for a while before the “Life” actress announced their engagement on December 21, 2021, alongside a photo of her hand with a beautiful ring on her finger. She captioned the post:

“And I said Yes!”

The two love time outdoors and relish activities such as swimming in ponds, surfing, hiking, and rock climbing — a tradition they embraced from as early as their third date.

Jessy Schram Once Said Her Cat Pirate Is the Love of Her Life

While Schram openly confesses her love for her fiancé, she is also not shy about how much she loves her cat. In fact, she once revealed to TV Fanatic that her cat, Pirate, was the love of her life. She shared that Pirate was a little rescue Sphynx cat who came into her life unexpectedly:

“He’s a cat that has the personality of a dog.”

When she first got him, she worried because she traveled a lot for work, but over the years, Pirate has traveled with her to different film locations. The actress, who stars alongside Connie Britton in “Nashville,” jokes that Pirate has been to more places than her mom.
