Helen Hunt recently took a nostalgic turn on Instagram, posting a makeup-free selfie while holding a vintage copy of the book Twister, referencing the iconic film in which she starred. Sharing the snapshot on September 16, 2023, with her 500,000 followers, the 60-year-old actress wore a denim jacket over a white top, her blonde hair down and natural.
In her caption, Helen simply wrote, “Thrifting. #twister #VHS.” Fans reacted with a mix of admiration and curiosity. While some followers celebrated her barefaced look, calling her “cool” and “still a beauty,” others speculated about possible cosmetic procedures, with some claiming her appearance had changed noticeably.
Helen’s life story includes a short-lived marriage to actor Hank Azaria, famous for his roles on The Simpsons. They married in July 1999, but their relationship ended in December 2000. Later, Helen found happiness with producer and writer Matthew Carnahan. The two welcomed their daughter, Makena, in May 2004, during a successful period in Helen’s acting career, including her Oscar win for As Good as It Gets in 1997.
In a 2008 interview, Helen opened up about her love for motherhood and her choice to scale back her career to focus on family, sharing that becoming a mom brought her unparalleled joy. Although her relationship with Matthew ended in 2017, they remained dedicated co-parents to Makena. In 2020, sources shared that co-parenting continued to be a priority for the pair, even as they moved on romantically.
Following her split from Matthew, Helen began a quiet relationship with photographer Steven Tepper. Steven, known to be a private person, has kept their relationship out of the public eye. Makena, now a teenager, is said to be supportive of her mom’s new romance, happy to see Helen in a good place. As of recent reports, Helen and Steven’s relationship remains strong and happily low-profile.
