According to The Cut, Maroney is currently the director of Gladstone Gallery in New York City, which has customers such as Lena Dunham’s father, Carroll Dunham, and sculptor Anish Kapoor.

He attended NYU. Maroney moved to New York City to study art history at New York University, according to US Weekly. The Cut also reported that after college, he worked at the infamous Gagosian gallery.

The couple’s relationship was initially revealed in June 2018, just a few months after Lawrence called it quits with Mother! Darren Aronofsky is the director.
He has an Instagram, but good luck stalking him. While Lawrence has a reputation for being social media-averse, her gallerist husband has a private Instagram account. He’s a good guy. Jennifer Lawrence and Cooke Maroney walk holding hands while wearing face masks and sunglasses.

Who is Jennifer Lawrence’s Husband?
Jennifer Lawrence was photographed hanging out with a strange man in June 2018, who turned out to be New York City-based art gallerist Cooke Maroney. The couple married on a luxurious October weekend in Rhode Island in 2019, after keeping their romance relatively private prior to the engagement.
So, who is Maroney, and how did a gallery director grab the attention of one of Hollywood’s biggest stars? Here’s a quick rundown of Maroney and Lawrence’s relationship and marriage thus far.
