Rachel Brosnahan’s husband, Jason Ralph, has raised eyebrows after reportedly ‘liking’ an Instagram comment criticizing his wife’s on-screen chemistry with her Superman costar, David Corenswet.
The alleged social media exchange came when a fan urged Ralph, 39, to ‘stand up’ for himself and leave his spouse, 35, if her connection with Corenswet had extended beyond acting.
The rest of the strange comment, which Ralph interacted with, read: ‘It’s genuinely sad to see your career being tucked out to be remembered as a cuckold because your wife couldn’t handle herself with her co-actor.’
‘Like bro.. let’s have some self love and stand up for yourself man, leave her to be with him if she wants that much at the end of the day,’ the Instagram user wrote.
Rather than replying or ignoring the post, Ralph, who starred alongside Brosnahan in The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel, surprised some fans by hitting the ‘like’ button.

DailyMail.com has reached out to representatives for both Brosnahan and Ralph for comment.
Reactions to Ralph’s interaction were divided as some accused him of showing disrespect toward Brosnahan and Corenswet.
‘Sorry but if u cant handle dating an actor/actress then dont date/marry one, what is up with ppl,’ one TikTok user wrote.Â
Another agreed: ‘Sorry but most people who marry actors know what they gotta deal with.’
Others questioned why he would engage with the post at all.Â
‘I think regardless whether he feels that way or was highlighting how absurd it is, there was no need to engage with it,’Â one commenter observed. ‘It is disrespectful to Rachel and through interacting with it, fans are now speculating etc about it. Whether or not the bts [behind the scenes] is bad, I think he made it very public and supported a very negative comment about his wife.’
A more sympathetic fan argued: ‘It’s just not fair to either of them, i feel for both of them in this situation and i hope people stop commenting on it bc it’s none of our business to begin with. let them live their lives.’
Some suggested the ‘like’ may have been misinterpreted, pointing to Ralph’s sense of humor.

‘Have we not considered that he liked it because it’s absurd?’ one user asked.
Another suggested: ‘I truly think this is him liking it because it’s absurd, not because he’s like….hurting deeply.’
Still, some fans opted to steer clear of the debate entirely.
‘I’m just going to be minding my business,’ one wrote, while another commented: ‘I am not doing Superman drama now, or ever.’
Ralph and Brosnahan quietly married in 2016 and did not reveal they tied the knot until three years later.

In a 2019 interview with People, Brosnahan explained: ‘I’ve been quite private about my personal life for a few reasons. The first being that it’s just that: personal. Jason and I also noticed early on that, while we are both the leads of successful television series, he has almost never been asked about our relationship while I have been asked on almost every red carpet I have walked in the last two years. We both find this double standard problematic and frustrating and opted to redirect those conversations to our work.’
Meanwhile, Corenswet married Julia Warner in March 2023 and welcomed their first child, a daughter, in 2024.Â
In June 2025, the Superman actor revealed to People that Warner told him she was pregnant just two days after he learned he would be screen testing for the iconic role.
‘She told me that she was pregnant two days after I found out I was going to screen test for Superman,’ Corenswet shared.
He added: ‘For the first several months of her pregnancy, as is sort of protocol, we weren’t telling anybody. We had these two quite huge secrets that we just had between the two of us. And that was intense.’
