Although Winona has been linked to a number of Hollywood heartthrobs, it seems she has settled down with Scott Mackinlay Hahn.

Scott, who is a sustainable fashion designer, has been quite vocal regarding his stance on climate change, feminism, and eradicating fast fashion.

While the two might live quite a private life, with absolutely no social media presence, they have ventured on to the red carpet together many times.

Born in October 1980, he is nine years younger than partner, Winona, who was born in 1971.

"I’ve been keeping to myself mostly. I met her when I was younger, right before my first record came out.

"I hung out with her for a month or two. But talking about any of this is weird unless you’re a complete exhibitionist."

In 1996, Winona was linked to X Files star David Duchovny, but it seems it was a little one sided.

During the time they were rumoured together, Duchovny told TV Guide: “I’m happy, and I’m in love.”

Meanwhile, Winona told an interviewer that she was “completely single” when asked about Duchovny’s comments.

Either they were never dating or Winona was completely uninterested.
