Maya Hawke: A Valentine’s Wedding and a New Chapter Beyond Hawkins
The world knows her as the witty, ice-cream-slinging Robin Buckley from Stranger Things, but today, Maya Hawke is making headlines for a much more personal reason. In a stunning turn of events that has captivated Hollywood, the 27-year-old actress and musician officially tied the knot with singer-songwriter Christian Lee Hutson in a surprise Valentine’s Day ceremony in New York City.
A Star-Studded NYC Wedding
On February 14, 2026, the historic St. George’s Episcopal Church in Manhattan became the backdrop for one of the year’s most talked-about weddings. Maya, looking radiant in a classic white ballgown paired with a feathery coat to brave the NYC chill, was walked down the aisle by her father, Oscar nominee Ethan Hawke.
The guest list was a "who’s who" of young Hollywood and legacy stars. Her mother, Uma Thurman, was spotted in an elegant pale blue gown, marking a rare and heartwarming reunion for the former couple as they celebrated their daughter's milestone. Perhaps even more exciting for fans was the unofficial Stranger Things reunion; co-stars Finn Wolfhard, Sadie Sink, Joe Keery, and Gaten Matarazzo were all in attendance to cheer on their friend.
Life After "Stranger Things"
This personal celebration comes just weeks after the world bid a final farewell to Stranger Things. The hit Netflix series concluded its fifth and final season at the end of 2025, leaving Maya free to explore new horizons. While she has often been discussed within the "nepo baby" conversation—recently being named the "Best Hollywood Nepo Baby of 2025" by Ranker for her self-aware and honest approach to her privilege—her talent has long since spoken for itself.
Music and Movies: What’s Next?
Maya isn't slowing down. Following the success of her 2024 album Chaos Angel and the companion EP Clipped Wings, she is set to embark on a highly anticipated 2025-2026 international tour. On the silver screen, she is preparing for the release of the sci-fi romantic comedy "Wishful Thinking" and has been cast in the upcoming Hunger Games prequel, "Sunrise on the Reaping," scheduled for late 2026.
From the Upside Down to a white aisle in Manhattan, Maya Hawke continues to carve out a legacy that is uniquely hers. As she begins this new chapter as a married woman and a leading lady in her own right, the industry watches with bated breath to see where her versatile talent takes her next.
