Opposites not only attract each other but when they attract each other, they stay together forever. The marriage between the musician and the New York-based lawyer Kevin Lazan certainly lends credibility to this saying. The duo met in New York City when Rachel was still a budding musician and Kevin a young, promising lawyer. According to the entertainer, it was love at first sight; the two immediately connected and began their relationship, which has lasted for many years.

Kevin Lazan, who is one year older than his wife, was born in Florida. His mother Judi is a real estate agent, while his father David was a lawyer. Kevin attended the University of Massachusetts, Amherst, where he earned a Bachelor of Arts degree in law and journalism. In 2010, he received his MBA degree from NYU Stern School of Business with a focus on strategy and finance.

Like Rachel, Kevin belongs to the Jewish faith.

Kevin and Rachel Platten were married in 2010 at a traditional Jewish ceremony at Mount Hope Farm Bristol, Rhode Island. According to what the songwriter told her fans, they had the wedding on a farm because they wanted to create a uniqueness and glamour different from what you would normally expect from a wedding.

The couple’s marriage has been going on for 10 years and it’s still growing – which is never easy in the entertainment industry. Even after a decade, they are still head over heels in love, and the thought of divorce or separation seems to drift further and further away from them. They currently live in Santa Monica, California, with their dog Dino, whom they love like a child.

Currently, they have no children together.

In 2016 Kevin quit his very lucrative job as a financial advisor to open a neighborhood café. Against all odds, the café is now a success and a must in Westside LA.
