Maguire in the Eye of an Age-Storm
“Spider-Man” star Tobey Maguire, 49, has recently fueled dating rumors with a much younger, 20-year-old model named Lily Chee. The duo was spotted at a Fourth of July party in the Hamptons, sparking internet outrage over a 29-year age gap. Eagle-eyed fans quickly compared Maguire’s preference for dating younger women to his close friend—and fellow party-goer— Leonardo DiCaprio.
This isn’t Maguire’s first time in a relationship with a significantly younger partner. He was previously involved with Tatiana Dieteman, who was 17 years his junior.
Fans Voice Displeasure Online
Photos of the Spider-Man actor escorting Chee away from the party quickly made rounds on the internet, setting off a wave of criticism. Both donning white clothing in accordance with the party’s theme, Maguire and Chee became the subject of scorching online critique.
Fans expressed their shock and chastised Maguire for dating a woman so close in age to his 17-year-old daughter, Ruby. Others made jocular references to Chee’s portrayal of a young Elektra in the Daredevil series, making remarks on how Spider-Man is now dating Elektra.
Past Relationships: From Co-stars to Models
In the past, Maguire has been linked to several women within the industry. Dating rumors tied him to Sara Gilbert of “The Big Bang Theory” fame during the mid-90s, though those rumors remain unconfirmed.
In the late 90s, Maguire dated Rashida Jones, a relationship largely forgotten by fans. He later dated “Spider-Man” co-star Kirsten Dunst, and the couple maintained their secrecy so well that even director Sam Raimi was oblivious until they broke up. Following that, he had a brief fling with actress Demi Moore.
Maguire’s Marriage and Ex-Wife’s Remarks
Maguire married Jennifer Meyer in 2007, after meeting her at Universal Studios during the filming of “Seabiscuit.” They announced their separation in 2016 after nine years of marriage. Meyer, the daughter of the former head of Universal Studios, Ronald Meyer, still speaks highly of Maguire as the “greatest ex-husband a girl could ever have.”
After his relationship with Meyer, Maguire had a three-year relationship with model Tatiana Dieteman before being ensnared in the current controversy with Lily Chee.
