Abigail Breslin is celebrating three years of marriage with Ira Kunyansky.

According to reports shared by People Magazine, the Scream Queens actress started dating Kunyansky in 2017. Breslin has been involved in the entertainment industry since childhood; her husband is not part of the Hollywood world. Ira Kunyansky refers to himself as a crypto connoisseur according to his Instagram bio.

The Hollywood actress announced back in 2023 that she married her longtime boyfriend, Ira. Breslin shared an Instagram photo showing off her wedding ring. She captioned the shot with a simple message.

"ya girl got married y'all," Breslin wrote.

Breslin later uploaded a photo of herself dancing with Kunyansky at their reception.

"01.28.23❤️💍❤️ married my bestest friend," she wrote alongside the image.

She also teased that more dress, hair, makeup details, and photos would come later.

The couple has made headlines again after Breslin marked her third wedding anniversary in a sweet post on Instagram on January 28.

"Happy 3 year wedding anniversary, babekin 😘😘 I love u so much 😍😍," Abigail Breslin wrote alongside a selfie with her longtime love.

Abigail Breslin revealed Ira Kunyansky had no idea who she was when they started dating:

Breslin starred in popular movies and shows throughout her career. Her work includes Little Miss Sunshine; however, that didn't help much as Ira Kunyansky didn't recognize the actress when they first met.

Breslin appeared on The Tonight Show in 2021 and spoke to Jimmy Fallon about an early conversation she had with Kunyansky. The conversation was about how Ira didn't know about her impressive career when they met.

"He had no idea who I was when we met, and I told him that I was moving to L.A. He was like, 'For what reason?' And I was like, 'Well I'm an actor ... ' And he said, 'Good luck. It's really hard,'" Breslin said.

The two began dating in April 2017. Their social media profiles showed this timeline. Breslin shared a close-up photo with Kunyansky on Instagram for the pair's first anniversary.

"Happy 1 year (and a day because I forgot to post this yesterday) to not only my boyfriend but my best friend. Who keeps me sane on a moment to moment basis and makes me happier than I could ever express via an Instagram post. Love you babekin," she wrote.

Kunyansky is not part of Hollywood himself. He supports Breslin's acting and music career.

He has joined her at red carpets and premieres. Kunyansky went to the Cannes Film Festival in 2021 for Breslin's movie Stillwater.

The couple walked the red carpet as newlyweds just 11 days after their wedding. They also attended the Santa Barbara International Film Festival for the premiere of Breslin's movie Miranda's Victim.

Breslin opened up about a previous abusive relationship during Domestic Violence Awareness Month in October 2022. She shared on social media that she experienced both physical and verbal abuse for years. Her family and friends helped her heal from it. Ira Kunyansky also played a role in her recovery.

"I am beyond thankful for the support of my family and friends who played an instrumental and invaluable role in helping me leave this horrible situation. I will forever be indebted to those closest to me for them not only assisting me but, BELIEVING me," she wrote on Instagram.
"I now am in a wonderful, healthy, happy and amazing relationship with my fiancé. My C-PTSD (complex post traumatic stress disorder) is much better than it was in the first 2 years after my abusive relationship, but, I still have moments. I still occasionally have nightmares, and certain things still do trigger me. I am still healing," Breslin shared.

One year earlier, Breslin talked about her relationship with Ira Kunyansky after experiencing abuse. She appeared on an episode of the Hey Guys, Hey podcast in 2021.

"There is hope, it does get better. You do get through it. I'm lucky now, I'm in a very very healthy almost 5-year long relationship with my boyfriend. He's amazing, and he is the sweetest person," she said.

Abigail Breslin shared about being a gamer alongside Ira:

Back in March 2024, Breslin talked exclusively with People Magazine about enjoying married life with Ira Kunyansky.

"I get to hang out with my best friend all the time, which is really fun. I hate that he takes the blankets and doesn't keep his sink clean enough, that's my biggest issue, but my best thing is that he is my best friend and I love going to hang out with him for the rest of my life," shared Breslin.

The star mentioned at the time that she and Ira Kunyansky are big gamers. Going to arcades together is something they love.

"And we also are very obsessed with Dateline and 2020. So we love watching any murder mystery things together. There's this YouTube channel called the 'Impossible Channel,' and we watch all of the creepy videos online. Most people get creeped out, but we fall asleep through that," she shared
"So it's like we're creepy together. We're just creepy people," she joked.
