Katherine Kelly Lang, known for her role as Brooke on "The Bold and the Beautiful," brings to life a character who finally finds lasting love after a series of turbulent relationships. Off-screen, Lang's own path to true love was equally complex, with two divorces behind her before she met her ideal partner later in life.
Everyone who has followed "The Bold & Beautiful" for years knows Brooke Logan has had several exciting relationships throughout the show's storyline. Played by Katherine Kelly Lang, Brooke wed several men, marrying some of them multiple times.
Throughout the soap, Brooke's true love is Ridge Forrester, played by Ronn Moss and Throston Kaye. Brooke and Ridge married 11 times throughout the show, with only seven being legal.
Occasionally, some of Brooke's ex-husbands would show up to cause drama. However, in later and more recent episodes of "The Bold and the Beautiful" these past couple of years, Brooke remains married to Ridge.
In real life, however, Lang didn't need to get married as many times as her character to find love. She was married to Skott Snider from 1989 to 1995 and married Alex D'Andrea two years later, from 1997 to 2014.
When she first married film director Snider, she didn't think they'd ever get divorced. However, it was a difficult marriage, and she knew it lasted longer than it should have.

Lang and Snider share two sons named Jeremy and Julian. Following her "horrible and horrendous" divorce, the actress didn't think she'd ever marry again.
However, she found love with actor D'Andrea, with whom she shares a daughter named Zoe. Seventeen years after getting married, they filed for divorce.

Amidst her divorce from D'Andrea, Lang met Dominique Zoida, the man she considers the love of her life. Speaking about him, she once said:
"To finally have a man come into my life who is completely right for me is something I wasn't expecting. We are best friends and love doing everything together."
Lang has nothing but good words to say about her relationship with Zoida, whom she met at 51. They are the best of friends who motivate one another and have a lot of things in common.
In 2019, Lang suffered a health scare when doctors removed a tumor the size of an orange from her small intestine.
One notable aspect of the couple's relationship is their fourteen-year age difference. However, according to Lang, it does not matter to them and has never been an issue.
Once, the actress even joked, "I'm very young on the inside, and [Dominique's] kind of the old one." Like Lang, Zoida is smitten by the actress as well.
Zoida admitted that he was attracted to Lang at first sight. He also said their lives are now intertwined, which he thinks is amazing.
What works for the couple is the idea of give and take. Rather than emulating partners who often try to get away from one another, they do the complete opposite and love doing things together.
"I've had two previous marriages, and they were nothing like I have now. It's rare to find it, and I'm so grateful," Lang once said of their love.
Katherine Kelly Lang and Dominique Zoida Choose to Stay Unmarried
Lang, who turned 63 on July 25, 1961, lives her best life with her boyfriend, three children, and grandchildren. In 2019, she suffered a health scare when doctors removed a tumor the size of an orange from her small intestine.
It was an anxiety-inducing time for Lang and Zoida, as they had to wait weeks to determine whether or not it was cancerous. It turned out not to be, and Lang went through her recovery process peacefully.
Through the years, Zoida has accepted his role as stepfather and grandfather to Lang's kids and grandchildren. In 2020, the actress revealed through a touching Father's Day post that one of her grandchildren calls Zoida "Poppy."
She also revealed through her message that the Lang children see him as a confidant, always "there to talk or listen and have lots of love." Lang couldn't help but gush about how glad she was that he came into her life.
Lang has two grandchildren, a granddaughter named Zuma and a grandson named Reign. She and Zoida are often photographed with them and love spending time with the little ones.
Through the years, the wonderful dynamic of their relationship has been seen through their posts on social media.
Zoida calls Lang his "best friend, my everything," shouting out to the world how much he loves her. He often shares their adorable photos on social media, which show them cuddling next to one another or sharing sweet embraces.
Likewise, Lang lovingly talks about her boyfriend on Instagram as well. She wants nothing more than to be close to Zoida, and she's got everything she needs when her family is around.
The third time's the charm for Lang when it comes to love. Her relationship with Zoida has been as steady as her long-standing career. In Lang's words, she "can't imagine" her world without him.
The actress has been on "The Bold and The Beautiful" for 37 years. She no longer thinks about when her career might end, as she enjoys every minute.
Lang even has an icon as her inspiration – she hopes she's still acting well into her 90s, just like Betty White did. Aside from "The Bold and The Beautiful," Lang was on several other projects like "Neighbours," "Monolith," "Happy Days," "I'm a Celebrity... Get Me Out of Here!" and more.
The veteran actress is also an entrepreneur, having a fashion and jewelry business she runs alongside Zoida. They travel to promote the brands, and finally, after two divorces and decades of searching for true love, she feels she has finally found her perfect match.
Both Lang and Zoida have not made any joint social media appearances recently. One of Lang's last social media posts featuring her partner was in June 2024, when the television star shared snaps from the Daytime Emmy Awards.
However, Lang and Zoida were not seen together in one frame. While the "Skatetown U.S.A." alum posed solo and alongside other media personalities, Zoida was all smiles standing next to Christian Jules LeBlanc.

Additionally, Zoida very rarely posts on his social media profile, with his last post dating back to the summer of 2022.
Lang and Zoida's relationship proves that age is just a number, with genuine connection and mutual appreciation outweighing any difference in years.
