Get ready to have your minds blown, people, because Matthew Morrison is turning 43 years old on Friday, October 30. The actor was only 31 when he starred in Glee, which means it has been more than 11 years since the show premiered, and we cannot believe how fast time has flown by.
For those who forgot, Morrison played Will Schuester in the show, who was in charge of McKinley High School’s glee club. It also starred Lea Michele, Cory Monteith, Chris Colfer, Naya Rivera, Dianna Agron, Kevin McHale, Darren Criss, Jenna Ushkowitz, Mark Salling, Amber Riley, Heather Morris and more. It premiered in May 2009 and went on for six seasons before it concluded in March 2015, and when it went off the air, it was definitely the end of an era.
But wait, what are the stars of the musical comedy doing now, you ask? We decided to check in on them all in honor of Morrison’s birthday, and boy, have they changed a lot over the last decade. Here’s what they’re all up to these days…

She also played Ariel in The Little Mermaid: An Immersive Live-to-Film Concert Experience.

As for her love life, she married businessman Zandy Reich in 2018. She gave birth to their first child, boy named Ever Leo, on August 20, 2020.
