Aldis Hodge Wife and Love Life: Privacy, Rumors, and Real Facts

If you’ve just binged him as Alex Cross or remember him as Hardison on Leverage and then found yourself typing “Aldis Hodge wife” into a search bar, you’re not the only one. Aldis Hodge talks more than ever about being a husband and father, but he’s equally clear about something else: the people he loves are not part of the show.

Who Is Aldis Hodge?

Aldis Hodge was born in 1986 in North Carolina to parents who both served in the U.S. Marine Corps, and he grew up between North Carolina and New Jersey. He started working early, showing up on Sesame Street as a kid and landing a small role in Die Hard with a Vengeance before most of us knew how to spell “thespian.”

TV fans usually point to Leverage as the moment he really popped. His turn as hacker Alec Hardison—and his return in Leverage: Redemption—made him a favorite with audiences who love clever, understated performances.

From there, he stacked up serious film work: Hidden Figures, Straight Outta Compton, Clemency, One Night in Miami… (as NFL legend Jim Brown), and the DC film Black Adam, where he played Hawkman. Most recently, he stepped into his biggest leading role yet as detective Alex Cross in Prime Video’s thriller series Cross, which has put him squarely in the “front-line star” category and sent curiosity about his personal life through the roof.

Is Aldis Hodge Married?

For a long time, profile pieces and fan bios listed him as single or simply “private about his dating life,” with no mention of a spouse. That changed with a very straightforward update in 2025.

In an August 2025 feature, People magazine wrote that Hodge “shares one daughter with his wife” and highlighted that he keeps “the identities of his wife and daughter quiet and off his social media.” Later in the same article, he talks about leaning on “my wife and family” when work gets demanding and stresses that “having a great partner helps” him show up fully as a dad.

So the confirmed picture right now is simple:

• Yes, Aldis Hodge is married.

• He has one daughter.

• He has never publicly named his wife or given identifying details about her.

Any article that states a full name for his wife is, at this point, going beyond what he’s chosen to share.

The Rumors About Harmonia Rosales

If you spend more than a few minutes Googling “aldis hodge wife,” you’ll see the name Harmonia Rosales everywhere.

Harmonia is a well-known Afro-Cuban American painter based in Chicago. She’s best known for reimagining classical European works with Black women and Afro-diasporic themes at the center; her 2017 painting The Creation of God went viral for that reason.

Hodge and Rosales have been linked publicly since around 2018–2020, via red-carpet appearances and social posts. Several entertainment outlets have described her as his girlfriend or partner. From there, more speculative sites started calling her his wife, often without offering any real sourcing.

Here’s the honest line:

• It’s well supported that they’ve been in a relationship.

• It is not confirmed in any reputable, on-the-record source that she is the wife mentioned in the 2025 People piece.

Unless and until Hodge himself names his wife, or a major outlet quotes him doing so, treating Harmonia as definitively “the wife” is still a guess.

Why He Keeps His Wife Out of the Spotlight

The People story is pretty clear about how Hodge draws his boundaries. It opens by noting he’s a dad to one daughter with his wife, and immediately adds that he keeps “his daughter’s life private.” The writer explains that you won’t see his wife or child on his social media feeds, even though he talks warmly about them in conversation.

In other interviews, he’s spoken at length about what fatherhood has done for him emotionally. He calls his daughter “the joy, the light of my life,” and credits her with forcing him to grow up in the best way—confronting old issues, rethinking how he spends his time, and focusing more on building a stable future than just chasing roles.

At the same time, whenever the conversation starts to drift toward names, photos, or personal details, he stops short. That pattern—deep feelings, limited specifics—isn’t accidental. It’s the way he’s handled his personal life for years: almost no gossip, no public breakups, no big “hard launch” of a relationship online.

Aldis Hodge as a Father

One of the most striking details he’s shared is about his daughter’s birth. She arrived prematurely and spent around two months in the NICU. Nurses used gold, heart-shaped tape to hold her wires in place, and that image stuck with him so strongly that he now carries a little sketchbook with a gold heart on the cover—a private symbol, he says, of strength and hope born from that experience.

He’s also happy to share the everyday, human bits: she’s into Disney movies, already has strong opinions, and he jokingly calls her a “three-nager” for the way she negotiates everything.

That lived experience feeds directly into his work on Cross. Alex Cross is a single father in the series, and Hodge has said being a real-life dad helps him understand the character’s fear, protectiveness and tenderness on a deeper level. In his words, fatherhood changed his whole perspective, and he wants his on-screen roles to reflect a more present, loving image of Black fatherhood.

He also makes a point of crediting his wife and extended family—his mother, sister and brother—for keeping their daughter grounded and supported when he’s on long shoots.
