Jon’s MAD LOVE

AFTER MEETING CUTE ON THE SERIES FINALE OF HIS GROUNDBREA­KING SHOW, JON HAMM AND ANNA OSCEOLA ARE GETTING SERIOUS.

-

IN perfect harmony? Five years after meeting on the set of the Mad Men series finale, Jon Hamm and Anna Osceola are the real thing. “Jon and Anna are definitely a couple,” says an insider of the pair, who were recently snapped after a tennis match. “They’re in love and they have a lot in common.” The two first crossed paths when Anna’s pigtailed receptioni­st checked Jon’s burned-out ad exec Don Draper in to an Esalen-type retreat at the close of the AMC drama. The episode concluded with a blissed-out Don dreaming up the beloved 1971 Coke ad, complete with a pigtailed girl crooning, “I’d Like to Teach the World to Sing.”

A couple of years later, the

St. Louis-born actor, 49, and the 32-yearold, who’s guested on Law & Order: SVU, were spotted having coffee in 2017 and at a Broadway show in 2019. “Jon’s friends say he stayed friendly with Anna,” says the insider. “But romance didn’t kick in until about a year ago.” Previously, the Emmy winner was in a nearly 20-year relationsh­ip with actress/ screenwrit­er Jennifer Westfeldt, 50. “Jennifer is more than just a girlfriend,” he declared in 2007, also hedging that “people get married when they’re ready to have kids.” After their 2015 split, Jon’s rep confirmed he’d entered an inpatient facility for alcohol addiction. Now he’s ready to love again. “Everyone knows Jon’s all about having a serious, longlastin­g relationsh­ip,” says the insider. “That’s what he wants. He misses that — and Anna makes him happy.”
