Daniela Ruah Husband: Meet David Paul Olsen

David Paul Olsen is a famous stunt performer and the husband of Portuguese-American actress Daniela Ruah. They have two children together.

David and Daniela met on the set of “NCIS.” During an appearance on “The Queen Latifah Show,” David’s brother Eric revealed the origins of the couple’s romance.

Eric revealed how he connected Daniela and David by breaking the ice and getting them to talk. According to Eric, he decided to connect the two after realising they were dating “awful” people and couldn’t be themselves. The couple then went on their first date in February 2011.

Daniela and David married in June 2014. “Just lived the best week of my life; I married my best friend,” the actress tweeted at the time. “Our son was with us. We were surrounded by our favourite people from the whole world. Unforgettable.”

It was an interfaith wedding, as Ruah later told 18Doors: She’s Jewish, and David is Lutheran. “Our fathers married us,” she told the site. “Dave’s father was ordained, and my father isn’t a rabbi, but you just have to have a minyan, ten men, to make it valid. We got married under a chuppah and Dave broke the glass. We had the wine ceremony and drank out of the Kiddush cup. Dave’s father recited a beautiful homily.”
