Behind every successful actress often stands a supportive partner, and for Jacqueline MacInnes Wood of The Bold and the Beautiful fame, that pillar is her husband Elan Ruspoli, an accomplished American talent agent whose own career shines brightly in the entertainment industry.
From Beverly Hills to Hollywood Power Player
Born on August 16, 1985, in the prestigious neighborhood of Beverly Hills, California, Elan Ruspoli has built an impressive career in talent representation. Now 40 years old as of 2025, this Leo-sign individual attended Beverly Hills High School before pursuing higher education at the University of Southern California, where he graduated in 2007.
Ruspoli's professional journey began immediately after college when he joined the Creative Artists Agency (CAA) in Los Angeles. Over the years, he climbed the ranks at what is considered the world leader in sports and entertainment representation. His client roster includes notable names such as Alex Wolff, Tom Burke, Jeffrey Wright, and Shea Whigham.
Though not an actor himself, Ruspoli has made significant contributions to the film industry through his work on projects including Them That Follow, The Burnt Orange Heresy, and In the Shadow of The Moon. His career recently took another step forward when he joined William Morris Endeavor Entertainment as a partner.
A Love Story and Growing Family
Elan Ruspoli's personal life captured public attention when he began dating Canadian actress Jacqueline MacInnes Wood in late 2016. The relationship progressed quickly, with Ruspoli proposing in July 2017. The couple married in a uniquely spontaneous ceremony in 2018.
In a 2020 interview with Soaps In Depth, Wood reflected on their unconventional wedding: "We went to Italy for the summer, and it was perfect timing because our friends and family were also traveling. We ended up meeting them on a yacht, and one of my friends who was there officiates weddings, so we said, 'Okay, let's do this.' We later filed all our paperwork back in the U.S. It ended up being just perfect."
The couple has since built a substantial family together, welcoming five children between 2019 and 2025:
- Rise Harlen - born March 2019
- Lenix - born February 2021
- Brando - born May 2022
- Valor - born August 27, 2023
- Fifth child - born October 2025
In March 2025, Wood announced their fifth pregnancy through her newsletter, writing: "I'm almost 7 months pregnant! Our family is beyond excited, and my kids are over the moon. It's such a special time in our home—so much love, energy, and anticipation."
Family Life and Personal Details
To accommodate their growing family, the couple made significant real estate moves. In 2021, they purchased a $4.5 million mansion in Westlake Village, California. This 7,000-square-foot property sits within a gated community, offering privacy from public view.
This purchase followed the profitable sale of their Hollywood Hills home, which they had bought for $1.48 million in 2016 and sold for $2.1 million in 2020.
Elan Ruspoli stands at 5 feet 9 inches (175 cm) and maintains a weight of approximately 139 pounds (63 kg). He has dark brown hair and brown eyes, complementing his Italian heritage. The Ruspoli family traces its origins to Florence, Italy, in the 13th century, with the family moving to Rome in the 16th century.
While Ruspoli's exact net worth remains undisclosed, his wife Jacqueline MacInnes Wood has an estimated net worth of $8 million, accumulated through her successful acting career, particularly her long-running role as Steffy Forrester on CBS's The Bold and the Beautiful.
As both continue to balance thriving careers with their expanding family, Elan Ruspoli and Jacqueline MacInnes Wood represent a modern Hollywood power couple—successful in their respective fields while prioritizing their family life away from the spotlight.
