Ewan McGregor, Mary Elizabeth Winstead reunite with his ex years after cheating claims, divorce ‘bomb’

Ewan McGregor had a Christmas worthy of Jerry Springer. 

As indicated by Instagram photos shared by one of his daughters, the Scottish actor, 52, spent the holiday with both his current wife, Mary Elizabeth Winstead, 39, and his ex-wife, Eve Mavrakis, 57, as one big happy family.

This is especially noteworthy because McGregor and Winstead faced cheating allegations when they first got together.

McGregor was married to his first wife, production designer Mavrakis, from 1995 to 2020, after meeting her on the set of British legal drama “Kavanagh QC.” They have four kids together: Clara, 26, Esther, 20, Jamyan, 20, and Anouk, 11. 

He met Winstead in 2016 — four years before his divorce from his first wife – while the two played each other’s love interests on Season 3 of the FX series “Fargo.”

Just a month after the season premiered in April 2017, Winstead and her husband of seven years, Riley Stearns, announced they were divorcing.

In October 2017, McGregor and Winstead were spotted kissing in London while he was still married to Mavrakis. He filed for divorce in 2018. 

A source told the Sun in 2017 that Mavrakis was convinced he cheated on her with Winstead. 

“Eve is sure Ewan and Mary were together before he confessed his feelings for her. It is hard for her to believe him. This situation is extremely difficult for her and their four children.”

It was reported that the “Star Wars” star had separated from Mavrakis earlier that year.

In July 2018, McGregor’s daughter, Clara, went on to slam Winstead as “a piece of trash.”

She later told The Times that her remark “wasn’t the most mature way to go about things, but I was angry and upset.”

She added: “There had been a lot building up to it and a lot to deal with — not to make excuses or anything — but, yeah, it wasn’t my finest moment.”

Still, Clara posted a bikini photo of her mother one year later, and left the snarky comment: “A – – hole men who leave my goddess of a mother.”

Last year, McGregor opened up about his nasty split in an interview with GQ. “A divorce in a family is a bomb going off in everyone’s life — my children’s lives,” he said at the time. “The, sort of, healing of that is ongoing.”

McGregor and Winstead had a son in 2021, and the two tied the knot in 2022. 

The blended family appears to be on better terms now, as Clara posted an Instagram album of her Christmas celebrations that included McGregor, Winstead and Mavrakis.  She captioned the photos with a simple green heart.
