Bo Welch & Catherine O’Hara: Dating, Wedding, Kids

Bo Welch met his wife Catherine O’Hara on the set of Beetlejuice in 1988 after director Tim Burton encouraged Bo to ask Catherine out on a date. They started dating sometime later at the end of the movie.

So, in 1992 on 25th April, they tied the knot.

At the time of this writing, the media and the public had no cues about the kind of wedding they had.

In the meantime, they have two kids from the marriage. Their two sons Matthew and Luke were born three years apart, respectively in 1994 and 1997.

Over the years, though not wanting to put their private life in social media, the couple occasionally made red carpet appearances. Most recently, in February of 2020, photographers had captured the duo looking dapper as ever at the Vanity Fair Oscar Party.

Earlier in 2020, Bo and Catherine filmed a Q&A for the Toronto International Film Festival’s Stay-At-Home cinema series when they spoke all about their experiences working together on the set of Beetlejuice and their living arrangement.

They gave away a bit of a scoop on their otherwise private life. Catherine said she and Bo divided time between their Los Angeles home and their Toronto home, not far from where Catherine grew up.

Catherine has been in Hollywood since the mid-1970s, making prominence with roles like Delia in Beetlejuice, Kate in Home Alone, and, the “iconic” Moira Rose in Schitt’s Creek. Throughout much of her getting-bigger career, the only constant has been her husband, Bo, always by her side.

Not long ago, Catherine confessed about the time, before Bo, when she and fellow Schitt’s Creek star Eugene Levy had a brief fling.
