Is Noah Kahan Off the Market? Inside His Relationship With Brenna Nolan
As his profile rises, Noah Kahan spotlights the real headline: a love as sweet as strawberry wine from wife Brenna Nolan, alongside the artists, family and friends he credits for carrying him through the climb.
Here is the gist: Noah Kahan has been quietly building a life with Brenna Nolan while his career has blown up, and that love story is all over his music, his interviews, and even a Netflix doc. It is sweet, it is low-key, and it comes with a funny candy habit that would drive most partners up a wall.
Quick timeline
- 2023: Kahan goes public with his relationship with Brenna Nolan. Not long after, he proposes.
- August 23, 2025: They get married in an intimate ceremony back home in Vermont. Kahan’s rep told People the couple values their privacy and asked folks not to post extra details, photos, or video unless the newlyweds share them themselves.
- 2026: Nolan shows up in Kahan’s Netflix documentary, Out of Body, as he talks openly about mental health.
- April 2026: Kahan releases The Great Divide and posts about what got him through making it — the stillness of Vermont, his band and producers, and, very specifically, his wife and family. He also sits down on Jay Shetty’s On Purpose podcast to talk about navigating fame and getting help when he needed it.
How Brenna shows up in the songs
Kahan has never been shy about crediting Nolan for keeping him grounded and shaping the work. In the liner notes for his 2023 album Stick Season, he left a love note that could double as a wedding vow:
"To my fiancee, you’re the air I breathe, you are everything and whatever is left after that. I could spend the rest of my life thanking you for getting me through this, and I promise I will. I love you to the moon and back."
Fast-forward to The Great Divide in April 2026: he said Nolan even helped write a song on that LP. And when he announced the album, he talked about being steered by a few anchors — the quiet back home in Vermont, the total commitment of his team — and the steady, loving hand of his wife and family, plus the fans cheering him on.
Support, fame, and actually asking for help
On Jay Shetty’s podcast in April 2026, Kahan looked back at the messier parts of getting famous and said the people around him — artists he admires, his family, his wife — saw how he was handling it and stepped in when he needed support. It is not romantic fluff; it is a very practical kind of love story: he needed help, they helped, and he is loud about being grateful for it.
She is on camera, too
In the 2026 Netflix doc Out of Body, which digs into Kahan’s mental health struggles, Nolan is there backing him up. At one point, she tells him:
"I always knew you had it in you to make music a career for yourself."
It is a small moment, but it tracks with everything else he says about her presence showing up between the lines of the songs.
Married life, candy edition
Kahan also admits he is not exactly a quiet roommate. On that same April 2026 podcast, he fessed up to his worst at-home habit: plowing through big bags of mini Tootsie Roll Pops and biting straight through them — like 50 in a row. Nolan calls it 'crunch time.' He calls it hilarious; she apparently just hates the sound of his teeth meeting hard candy. Fair.
The wedding itself
They kept it tiny and close to home. The rep’s message in August 2025 was basically: yes, they got married in Vermont on August 23; please let them control what, if anything, gets shared. Translation: no venue photo dumps unless the couple posts them first.
And if you have caught a show, you know the guy is big on feelings. He has even said watching dudes cry in the crowd is, quote, 'It’s the f---ing greatest.' Honestly, same.
