If you're a fan of Hollywood movies, especially 90s hit flicks, then the name Hilary Swank will certainly ring a bell to you.

Hilary Swank was born on July 30, 1974, in Lincoln, Nebraska.

Inside Hilary Swank's Dating History!  

The Academy-winning actress has had her fair share of relationships over the years. From early marriage and a long-term relationship to a failed engagement, the P.S. I Love You actress has gone through it all. Swank had already made her breakthrough in the film industry when she started dating her Quiet Days in Hollywood co-star, Chad Lowe, in 1992. While Lowe's side of emotion remains under-wrapped, it was reportedly a love-at-first-sight scene for Hilary.

"It was like the old cliche where you see somebody, lock eyes across the room, and time stands still. … I said, 'I would love just to take you to lunch,'" Swank says as she reminisces the moment she fell for Chad. The duo dated quietly for many years and walk down the aisle in a low-profile affair in September 1997. The pair was the low-key, yet sweetest couple in Hollywood until they weren't anymore. The duo's separation started swirling in 2006, and soon, the news was confirmed.

"Marriage is something we both took really seriously. If I had to sum it up to one particular thing, I would say that we grew apart," the Oscar winner said as she revealed that it was the accumulation of several factors that eventually ended their marriage. Lowe has since been married to producer Kim Painter, with whom he shares three daughters. Just as Chad moved on with the producer, Swank also entered a committed relationship with her agent John Campisi in 2007. 

The pair dated for five years, during which Hilary also made a bond with John's son from his previous relationship. Swank and Campisi's separation was confirmed in May 2012. The Million Dollar Baby actress reportedly buried herself in a slew of projects after the heartbreak and love came, but after several years and immense patience. Swank had previously talked about not wanting to delve into marriage again, but the thought change when she started dating tennis player Ruben Torres in 2015.
