The meeting with Andrew Frankel marked a pivotal moment, bringing not just romantic companionship but also the promise of a supportive and loving blended family. Frankel, a businessman known for his grounded nature and calm demeanor, shared values that aligned closely with Moynahan’s approach to life—prioritizing family, kindness, and intentional living.
Their initial connection, formed through mutual friends, developed organically into a relationship characterized by mutual respect and shared vision.
By October of the same year, the couple celebrated a private wedding at Wolffer Estate Vineyard in Sagaponack, New York. This serene and picturesque setting provided a perfect backdrop for a ceremony focused on love, community, and family.
Moynahan reflected fondly on the day, describing the attention to detail in her dress, the decor, and the small, intentional touches that made the occasion feel uniquely theirs.
Rather than prioritizing extravagance, the couple emphasized substance: they asked guests to forgo traditional gifts in favor of donations to The Hole in the Wall Gang Camp, underscoring their shared commitment to giving back and fostering meaningful impact.
One of the greatest joys—and challenges—of this new chapter was the integration of families. Frankel brought three sons from a previous relationship, while Moynahan’s primary focus remained on Jack, ensuring he felt secure, included, and valued.
The process of blending families is often fraught with complexities, but Moynahan approached it with patience, empathy, and a deliberate intention to foster connection among all children.
