More about Nicole Brydon Bloom as the actress gets engaged to Justin Theroux
The actress who played Caroline Stuyvesant in The Gilded Age graduated with a degree in acting from Elon University in 2017.
She had initially entered the institution wanting to pursue a major in journalism but changed her mind later. In a 2022 interview with Today, she said that she decided to change her career path after watching a production put up in the university.
Nicole Brydon Bloom lost her father, David Bloom, an established NBC News journalist, in April 2003, when she was just nine. He was covering the war in Iraq when he died. Nicole’s mother, Melanie, said about David's death in an interview with Today:
“We had braced ourselves for all the war-related dangers that that assignment entails.
"But when I got that call, I had never heard of DVT myself, and I don’t think David ever had. The more I learned, the more shocked I was. It wasn’t an IED or a bomb that took his life. It was this DVT.”
In February 2023, Nicole was first spotted with Justin Theroux at a Netflix event at New York City’s Zero Bond. Six months later, they were seen again at New York City’s Altro Paradiso.

Bloom has frequently shared snippets of their vacations together on Instagram, with Theroux taking to Instagram stories on August 20 to share a picture of him wrapping his arm around Bloom and planting a kiss on her cheeks as they posed against an oceanside backdrop.
Justin Theroux was first married to Jennifer Anniston between 2015 and 2018. Speaking about his divorce and choosing to keep his romantic relationships behind the scenes, Justin said in an interview that there was “much more fun not being in a public relationship.” He also said in a May 2023 interview with Esquire:
“There’s something to, once you’re out of that, where I want all of my relationships to exist within the four walls of whatever room we’re in.”
