The Law & Order: SVU actress posted a picture her husband, Peter Hermann, snapped. HELLO!
Mariska Hargitay is taking time to relax with her family in Italy. After a busy season promoting her new documentary My Mom Jayne, she has slowed down and flown to Sicily. She and her husband, Peter Hermann, are currently enjoying some peaceful days in the town of Taormina.
A Stunning Style Moment
On July 10, Mariska posted a beautiful black and white photo on Instagram. The picture shows her standing in front of the Church of Saint Catherine in Taormina. She wore a lovely white dress from the popular brand Zimmerman. The dress had buttons down the front, big sleeves, and an eye-catching cut-out hem.
Fans quickly flooded the comments with compliments. One person wrote, "You look like an Italian dream!! Bellissima." Others added, "Pure joy," and "This could be a magazine cover!"

Peter’s Perfect Shot
Though Mariska didn’t mention who took the photo, fans guessed it was her husband. Many praised Peter’s photography, calling it "gorgeous" and saying he captures Mariska’s beauty perfectly. One comment read, "Peter did an amazing job once again."
A Love Story That Lasts
Mariska and Peter’s love story started in 2001. They met on the set of Law & Order: SVU, where Peter played defense lawyer Trevor Langan. Their first date? A church visit. Mariska once shared that during the service, she started crying—not from emotion over the sermon, but because she realized Peter was the one.
She told a magazine, “It was like getting hit with a lightning bolt.”
A Strong Family Bond
The couple has been married for over 20 years. They tied the knot in August 2004 in Santa Barbara, California. Their wedding included 200 close friends and family.
They have three children: August, born in 2006, and two adopted children, Amaya and Andrew, who joined their family in 2011.
Still Making Memories Together
During their Italian getaway, the couple also spent time at Il Pellicano in Porto Ercole. Mariska shared another photo from their trip, again receiving lots of love from fans.
Her relaxing vacation comes at the perfect time, just before filming for Law & Order: SVU resumes. The trip offers a break from work and a chance to spend quality time with her family.
Fans continue to admire not only her work and style but also her strong relationship with Peter. Their photos show a deep love and connection, even after two decades together.
