Sofia Coppola has been married twice: The Academy winner is a doting mother to two!  

Sofia Coppola, a famed director, and actress, is back to mesmerize her audience one more time as her latest biopic, Priscilla, based on Priscilla Presley's 1985 memoir, Elvis & Me, nears the date of its release. Coppola's spectacular work has been a widely celebrated creation for around five decades, which has catapulted her to become one of the most decorated female directors.  

Born on May 14, 1971, in New York City, to legendary filmmakers Francis Ford Coppola, and Eleanor Coppola, one doesn't need to look far when gauging the source of Coppola's genius in the field. Coppola kick-started her journey as an actress but carved a more illustrious career as a director. Coppola's second feature, Lost in Translation, won her one Oscar out of the three nominations.  

Who is Sofia Coppola Married to?   

Sofia's exceptional features and her career at large are often in the spotlight but the filmmaker's personal life always falls under the radar. The Lost in Translation actress has been long married to musician Thomas Mars, with whom she shares two kids.  

Coppola's husband, Mars, 46, whose real name is Thomas Pablo Croquet, is a French singer and the frontman of the French band, Phoenix. Thomas's well-known indie-pop has released seven studio albums and won a Grammy for Wolfgang Amadeus Phoenix.

The pair's low-key nuptial recently shot to headlines after Mars jumped in to support his wife. Coppola wasn't granted permission to use Elvis's music in her soon-to-be-releasing biopic when Thomas, and his band, Phoenix, took the responsibility of writing the score.   

Defying the old-fashioned norm of keeping one's professional life separate from personal life, Sofia's husband said, "I know they say it shouldn't be done, but what do I know, it happened naturally." Coppola was a married woman when she met Mars sets of Coppola's 1999 mega-hit, The Virgin Suicides. Coppola and Mars continued their collegial ties, with Mars contributing soundtracks for her films. 

The Bling Ring director would eventually call it quits with her first husband, director Spike Jonze, and delve into another high-profile romance. Thomas worked on a number of Coppola's projects, including Somewhere, The Bling Ring, and The Beguiled, before starting a romantic relationship with her.  

Sofia's older daughter, Romy, went viral after she tried to charter a helicopter!  

The private couple walked down the aisle in Bernalda, Italy, which happens to be the birthplace of Sofia's great-grandfather, on August 27, 2011. The twosome has since welcomed two daughters, one of whom recently went viral on social media platforms. Sofia gave birth to their firstborn, Romy Mars, in November 2006.  

Romy, a 17-year-old aspiring model, went viral for all the wrong reasons after she tried to charter a helicopter from New York to Maryland. Romy's naive and unpleasant disposition shortly landed her the title of internet's favorite nepotism-baby and also landed her otherwise low-key parents into hot waters.   

In a since-deleted clip, Romy quippingly laments about having busy parents, saying her parents are "never home." She then proceeds to call her babysitter her "replacement parents." Sofia and Thomas also share a 13-year-old daughter, Cosima Mars, who is also being kept out of the spotlight. "I don't want them ever to be jaded," Coppola once explained, adding, "I just want them to have a childhood.   

Inside Sofia Coppola's Past Romances!  

Coppola currently doesn't have the most high-profile relationship, but there was a time when the Oscar winner's personal life was often the subject of intense tabloid scrutiny. Given her prominent background and her unparalleled talent, Coppola didn't have a problem landing a man as exceptional as her.   

The Lost in Translation director was still dabbling in acting when she had a brief romance with actor Keanu Reeves. The pair's short-lived love reportedly fizzled right before Coppola entered a high-profile relationship with fellow Oscar-winning filmmaker, Spike Jonze, on the sets of a music video. The pair went from being colleagues to friends, before eventually tying the knot in 1999.  

Coppola and Jonze got married on June 26, 1999, at Sofia's father's winery in Napa Valley, California. Throughout their fleeting marriage, the couple worked on a few projects, gushingly supported each other's work, and eventually saw their relationship unraveled. There've been several speculations about the duo's split since then.   

Sofia and Jonze's masterpieces, Sofia's Lost in Translation, and Jonze's Her, both released around the same time in 2013, seemed to be telling the same story, of the spouses' colliding experiences despite being in the same home, and business.  

Coppola later seemingly confirmed the movie's connection with her own marriage, and said, "It wasn't really the right life for me to be with him, and what he wanted in his life." The Oscar-winning filmmakers finalized their divorce after four years of marriage in 2003.
