Before finding lasting love with her husband Peter Hermann, Mariska Hargitay, the beloved “Law & Order: SVU” star, had a few notable relationships that captured public interest. In the early 1990s, Hargitay dated actor Richard Anthony Crenna, son of actor Richard Crenna, and their relationship was marked by mutual support during their burgeoning careers. She was also linked to Grant Show, famous for his role on “Melrose Place,” with whom she shared a brief but highly publicized romance. Despite these high-profile relationships, it wasn’t until Hargitay met Hermann on the set of “SVU” in 2001 that she found her true partner, leading to their marriage in 2004. These past relationships, while significant, pale in comparison to the deep and enduring love she shares with Hermann, which has become a cornerstone of her personal and professional life.
