Actor-producer Aldis Hodge boasts a nearly 20-year career within the film industry. He got his start in Hollywood via a Die Hard sequel before gaining his first recurring role on Leverage. Since then, he’s achieved several roles in film and television in addition to a host of nominations and award winnings including two NAACP Image Awards and two Screen Actors Guild Awards. He’s most recently been seen in Amazon Prime Video’s Cross, which he joined the cast of in 2022. Besides becoming the lead actor of the streaming series, Hodge has become a go-to actor in the industry, creating a sense of consistency within his career. While TV and movie lovers can always count on Hodge to deliver an incredible performance, the 38-year-old prefers to keep some parts of his life private, such as his love life. Here’s everything we know about his romantic history!
In 2018, Aldis Hodge Was Linked to Chicago Artist Harmonia Rosales
Around the time that Hodge appeared on Star Trek: Short Treks in 2018, he was also featured in a few articles alongside artist Harmonia Rosales regarding their debut collaboration at art shows in Los Angeles and New York. The former, in addition to being an actor and producer, is also an artist and a watchmaker via his company – A. Hodge Atelier. Rosales is a Chicago-born, Afro-Cuban artist whose longtime work focuses on the empowerment of Black women, depicting and honoring the African diaspora. Their collaborations included projects called “Through the Looking Glass” and “Frontier Works: Bottle Impressions in the Bulleit Frontier Whiskey Lounge”. Despite being described as “#CoupleGoals” six years ago, things have changed for Hodge and Rosales in the six years since they started dating.
Since Their Collaboration, the Pair Has Been Quiet About Any Romance Brewing Between Them
Since the initial articles in 2018, no other publications of joint projects or date nights have been circulated regarding Hodge and Rosales. They continue to work individually in the film and art worlds achieving much success. Neither of them has spoke about their relationship with one another outside of the workplace, nor confirmed a breakup (if they were ever together to begin with). It’s worth noting that they hae not been spotted together publicly and are not seen in any feed posts on each other’s social media profiles, indicating their connection was nothing more than professional.
Regardless of His Relationship Status, Hodge Describes His Daughter as ‘The Light of His Life’
While he keeps the details of his personal life tightly under wraps, Aldis Hodge has been candid about his experience playing Alex Cross in Prime Video’s new Cross series. His character is a homicide detective, forensic psychologist and family man enduring grief and mental illness, which Hodge has likened to his own experience as a father. While chatting with theGrio, he noted, “My daughter is the one who’s brought up all these things for me to basically really want to be a better man… My little mama is my whole world.”
The star continued, “Honestly, as scary as it is on a regular basis — because you don’t want to mess up, you don’t know if you’re doing the right thing — I have the most ease and the most confidence when it comes to my daughter. Because she’s just the light of my life. I think in many ways, she has saved my life.” As long as he’s got his little girl by his side, it seems Aldis Hodge isn’t too concerned about pursuing romance.
