Rumors of marriage previously swirled around the couple earlier this month after the two were seen walking through Malibu while wearing wedding bands.
Duchovny, 64, and Pendleberry, 31, began dating in 2017. Since then, public appearances for the couple have been rare—but they have been seen out and about a few times, including in New York City last September, a Los Angeles Lakers game in January of last year, and the red carpet premiere of You People, a Netflix original film Duchovny starred in.
It’s not the first marriage for the X-Files star. He previously married Tea Leoni in 1997, and the couple divorced in 2014. They have two children together: a 26-year-old daughter, West, and a 22-year-old son, Kyd.
Leoni and Duchovny are still on good terms.
Duchovny is one of the most beloved TV actors of his era, thanks to big roles in acclaimed series like his two-time Emmy-nominated role as Fox Mulder in The X-Files, his Golden Globe-nominated role as Hank Moody in Californication, and his role as Denise Bryson in both the original series and reboot of Twin Peaks. His last major role was in HBO’s 2024 espionage miniseries The Sympathizer.
