The Real-Life Partners Of The Way Home's Leading Ladies
Who doesn't love a heartwarming Hallmark family drama that involves time travel, love triangles, and secrets? "The Way Home" hit the air in 2023, and fans have loved watching the messy love lives of the three generations of Landry women — Kat (portrayed by Chyler Leigh), Alice (Sadie Laflamme-Snow) and Del (Andie MacDowell) — on-screen since. But it turns out that the leading ladies' love lives are just as entertaining off-screen.
Love sits at the core of the show, with the Landry women finding it not only in others but also each other. After a rough divorce, mother-daughter duo Kat and Alice Landry move in with Kat's estranged mother, Del, in their small rural hometown of Port Haven in Canada. The show explores how the three women find a time-traveling pond on their family farm and use it to heal their relationships, decipher family secrets, and attempt to fix past mistakes. Their journeys also happen to involve passion, steamy kisses, and, of course, heartbreak. Of course, many Hallmark Channel leading ladies have real-life relationships that are just as dramatic, so let's take a closer look at what the Landry ladies' love lives look like off-screen.
Sadie Laflamme-Snow has been dating opera singer Cameron Martin for over 3 years
Alice Landry has had her fair share of teenage boy drama on the show, from falling in love with her mom's friend while time traveling to messy love triangles. While she might be a rookie to love on-screen, Alice's actor, Sadie Laflamme-Snow, is certainly not. The 25-year-old appears to have a steady real-life romance her long-term boyfriend, Cameron Martin.
The actor and the opera singer began dating in 2023 and have kept a mostly private love life since. However, she has shared some of their travel adventures here and there, including a trip to Vancouver Island back in 2023, where she introduced her boyfriend on her Instagram. The two have also been spotted together at the Season 2 premiere of "The Way Home" and during around-the-world holidays to Costa Rica and Rome.
Chyler Leigh split from fellow actor Nathan West after more than 2 decades together
Chyler Leigh's "The Way Home" character, Kat Landry, navigates a messy divorce, co-parenting, and heartbreak on-screen, and unfortunately, the actor is juggling some of the same obstacles off-screen. In May 2026, she split from fellow actor Nathan West after almost 26 years together. The pair share three kids: Noah, who was born in 2003; Taelyn, who was born in 2006; and Anniston, who was born in 2009.
Leigh shared the news of her divorce during a candid conversation with Chris Collins on his podcast, "Books That Changed My Life." Leigh explained how past cycles of family trauma and anger were finding a way into her marriage and how the couple didn't want that to continue. "We're doing all the things that we can, but just hit a point where it was like, 'Okay, what you want and what I want aren't really lining up anymore.' And I'd rather us be on good terms and us not harbor the resentment and the anger ... all that stuff. It's not worth it," she explained to Collins. Since then, Leigh has been working through the grieving process of a divorce one step at a time.
Meanwhile, Andie MacDowell has been happily single for over 2 decades
Andie MacDowell's portrayal of an independent widow who has been quietly grieving the sudden death of her husband and disappearance of her young son alone for years immediately captured fans' hearts. Off-screen, MacDowell is solo, but she's definitely been enjoying single life as she ages gracefully for the past two decades.
MacDowell has been married twice — once to Paul Qualley, a former model and rancher, for 13 years and then shortly after to Rhett Hartzog, her high-school sweetheart, for three years. MacDowell and Qualley share three children: Justin Qualley, who was born in 1986; Rainey Qualley, who was born in 1989; and Margaret Qualley, who was born in 1994.
Since her second divorce in 2004, MacDowell has enjoyed the freedom of being single. In fact, she has always been one to fully embrace life; she's one of many celebrities who are proudly showing off their gray hair as they age, and she knows she doesn't need a man to be happy. The actor explained on "The Drew Barrymore Show" that the older she gets, the less she cares about her relationship status and, as a result, the less people ask her about it. "I do think that there is nothing wrong with being single, really. I have great female friends and I have some male friends that I like too," she said.
