Actor Jacob Batalon, best known for portraying Ned Leeds in Marvel’s Spider-Man franchise, has officially tied the knot with his longtime partner, luxury interior designer Veronica Leahov.
The 29-year-old Marvel star quietly let the news slip during a radio interview while sporting a wedding band, before official confirmation surfaced from multiple outlets.
Rather than staging a major red-carpet press release, Batalon casually broke the news during a promotional radio interview with Heart alongside his Spider-Man co-stars:
“My wife calls me Big Dog,” Batalon joked on air before laughing and clarifying: “She doesn’t. I wish she did.”
Name Change Confirmation: Following the interview, Leahov subtly confirmed the marital update by updating her professional website domain and branding to “Veronica Leahov Batalon.”
Spotted with a Band: Eagle-eyed fans first began speculating about a private ceremony after Batalon was seen wearing a simple gold wedding band during recent press appearances.
Proposal History: The couple originally got engaged in March 2025 during a romantic proposal in New York City, sharing heartwarming photos on Instagram at the time.
The newlyweds have consistently prioritized privacy throughout their relationship. While Batalon previously admitted in interviews that he left most of the wedding logistics to Leahov because he wasn’t “good at planning”, the intimate, hush-hush celebration proved to be the perfect milestone for the low-profile couple.
