All About Emilie Livingston, Jeff Goldblum's Wife

Get to know Emilie Livingston.

The Ontario native, who has been married to actor Jeff Goldblum since 2014, is a former rhythmic gymnast. She showcased her talents at the 2000 Sydney Olympics, where she placed 17th, and has worked in Hollywood as a body double.

Livingston and the Jurassic World Dominion star met in 2011, announced their engagement in July 2014, and tied the knot at the famed Chateau Marmont hotel in Los Angeles on Nov. 8, 2014. It was the first marriage for Livingston and third for Goldblum (who was previously married to Patricia Gaul and Geena Davis). Since then, they've welcomed two sons: Charlie Ocean in 2015 and River Joe in 2017.

From her time as an Olympian to her body double gigs, here's everything to know about Livingston.

She's a retired Olympic athlete

Livingston competed in the 2000 Sydney Olympics, representing her home country of Canada in rhythmic gymnastics. She eventually placed 17th.

The Olympics defines rhythmic gymnastics as a "women-only event in which gymnasts perform on a floor with a rope, hoop, ball, clubs or ribbon accompanied by music, in individual or group events."

She moved to Russia to professionally train in rhythmic gymnastics

At only 11 years old, Livingston moved to Russia to train professionally at the famous Novogorsk camp in Moscow. She thought it necessary to make the move to seriously pursue her passion, due to the lack of resources in Canada.

"My first coach, I saw her perform in Toronto… This is where I first saw a high level representation of Rhythmic Gymnastics," Livingston told Vol Up 2. "What I was exposed to in Canada wasn't near that level. Canada doesn't have the same resources ... for the sport to really be taken to its highest potential."

During an interview with Neon Tommy, she admitted, "I don't know how I survived it, but I am really glad I did. I think it made me a really strong and courageous person."

She added, "One thing about the Russians, they have no mercy. I wasn't around my family, there was no one there to coddle me, but it helped bring my skill level up tremendously."

She started ballet at age two

Livingston discovered her love for dance at a young age, prior to pursuing gymnastics. She said that any opportunity to accompany her older sister to a dance lesson turned into a chance to try to attend classes herself.

"I would be at the dance studio with my mom. While she was dressing my sister, I would use that opportunity to bolt, and sneak into a class," Livingston told Vol Up 2.

"Eventually, it continued from there and I was placed in a dance class without having to sneak into it. Here, my love of being on the stage, for creativity and movement began to take off," she recalled.

She met Goldblum in a gym

Coincidentally, the professional gymnast met her husband in a gym one day in California. "We were at Equinox on Sunset Blvd., the gym," Goldblum told Wired.

He continued: "I saw her from across a crowded room, and I marched up to her, entranced, and began some kind of conversation."

She played Rihanna's body double in a movie

Outside of competition, Livingston has brought her talents to Hollywood — appearing as body doubles in several films.

She subbed for Rihanna's character, Bubble Dancer, in 2017's Valerian and the City of a Thousand Planets and Emma Stone's La La Land character, Mia, in 2016.

She's also had some major Hollywood moments as herself, notably performing as a solo aerialist at the 88th Annual Academy Awards for The Weeknd's Oscar-nominated song "Earned It."

She likes to cook

As a professional athlete, fueling her body is essential for success. Livingston often posts videos to her Instagram of herself whipping together healthy foods and sharing recipes to her favorites.

One of her specialities is a French Onion Soup, in which she admits that she and Goldblum are "obsessed with," per her Instagram caption.

She and Goldblum share two kids

The couple welcomed their first child, son Charlie, in 2015, and their second son, River, arrived in 2017.

Livingston regularly shares photos of their sweet (and talented!) kids on social media — and Goldblum hasn't been shy in speaking out about his blissful home life.

"I feel right on schedule and I love our two boys," he told Us Weekly of becoming a dad at 63. "Everything seemed to happen perfectly. I appreciate it wildly."

In February 2024, Livingston revealed Charlie's exceptional piano skills in a video on Instagram. "He loves his speed, rapidity," the proud mom captioned the post.
