Denée Benton and Carl Lundstedt
Denée Benton, who plays secretary Peggy Scott in The Gilded Age, married Manifest star Carl Lundstedt in 2020.
The couple first met at Carnegie Mellon University in Pittsburgh, where they studied acting and dated for over five years before Carl surprised her with an unexpected proposal.
“The joke’s on me because my one requirement for our proposal was that he surprise me — even though I’m a controlling Capricorn and don’t really love surprises,” Benton told Vogue in 2020.
She continued, “He succeeded, and it’s one of the reasons I’m so happy we’re married, because spontaneity comes so naturally to him that our balance makes it beautiful.”
