The internet is partly to blame for ruining their relationship. In February 2015, Ryan took to Instagram to call out social media users whose negative comments were affecting his personal life. The post read;
For the second time, a moment from my private life with someone I care about was removed from social media by bitterness. If you do not approve of my life or who I choose to surround myself with, kindly leave. I did not care for your presence, and I will not mourn your absence.

There were speculations that Linda Leslie was Ryan Paevey's wife, but it turned out to be false. The American makeup artist has been married to Canadian actor Dominic Zamprogna since November 2009. They currently have three daughters, Anbilliene, Eliana, and Adeline Pauline.
Dominic worked with Paevey on the ABC series General Hospital. He has been on the show since 2009, playing Dante Falconeri.
Why Ryan Paevey has never been married
Paevey's workaholic nature has prevented him from focusing on a relationship. While talking to Renee Bargh from Extra, he revealed that his dating life is non-existent, adding that he could not even care for a pet.
I'm missing 50% of that equation, but I'll keep you posted. I'm a workaholic. I don't even have a dog. I have a thriving houseplant.
The Unleashing Mr Darcy star previously planned to become a family in his 30s. In his interview with SheKnows in 2014, he said,
I'm committed to growing and improving professionally, taking risks, learning, giving back. And personally, I'd love to take some strides towards starting a family.

Ryan Paevey's ideal woman
Paevey told Hallmark Channel during the promotion of Unleashing Mr Darcy in 2016 that his ideal woman should have Elizabeth qualities. Elizabeth is Ryan's love interest in the film and is portrayed by actress Cindy Busby.
I like Elizabeth; I'd like to meet an Elizabeth...Brains and a sense of humour, I think, trump everything else. Gotta be able to laugh because I'm a goofy guy sometimes.
While appearing on Hearts of Stars, the actor revealed his first crush was actress Amy Jo Johnson. He also likes brunettes and had crushes on Jessica Biel, Kate Beckinsale, and Evangelin.
First would probably be Amy Jo Johnson, Pink Power Ranger. Come on! That was the first. That was back in the day. And, fun fact: I ended up doing a movie with another Pink Power Ranger, Aaron Cahill
