From an Instagram post by Steven Sater: it has been one year since the premiere of the Spring Awakening documentary. Steven also posted a TikTok video and left the comment below.

How did you find out that JG and Tima’s relationship ended? Did he say anything publicly or were they just not seen around each other anymore?

They have not been seen together since the Spring Awakening documentary premiere in late April 2022.

Jonathan has never said anything publicly about their relationship, and he was never asked about it, even after they appeared together at the Matrix Resurrections premiere in December 2021.

Hi there! I’m curious to know have there been a lot of celebrity sightings at the Merrily shows? Thank you for all you do with this wonderful account.

There have been a lot of celebrity sightings at the show, and also off-Broadway, but only a few photos of celebrities have been posted on the official Merrily social media accounts (Lin-Manuel Miranda, Sutton Foster). Unlike other productions, Merrily continues to sell out every show, meaning that they don’t need constant PR so they rarely promote who is at the show.

Recent guests have included Melissa McCarthy (who went backstage and met the cast), Al Yankovic, Idina Menzel, Kristen Bell, Neil Patrick Harris, Jessie Ware, Jon Bass, Lucy Hale, and many Broadway actors and friends. A New York Post sightings column referenced (probably via the PR team) a range of actors who had been to the show early in the run (Maya Rudolph, Julia Louis-Dreyfus, Paul Rudd and Hugh Jackman): https://jgroffdaily.tumblr.com/post/731387571451658240/also-this-one

During the Buzzfeed puppies interview, Jonathan mentioned that Mandy Patinkin and Bernadette Peters, amongst others, saw the show off-Broadway.

Zachary Quinto was at the opening and came back a few weeks later with Sarah Paulson and Jessica Lange. Others at the opening included Anna Wintour, Cynthia Erivo, Lena Waithe, Raul Castillo (with Alexis Forte) and Gideon Glick.

Toby Onwumere saw the show with some friends, including Jonathan’s former partner, Tima Botwin.

There was a weekly summary posted on this account of celebrities seen at the show during the off-Broadway run.

Update: Whoopi Goldberg was at the show on 29 November and took photos with the cast. Rachel McAdams was also at the same matinee. Alan Menken and Hillary Clinton were at the 30 November show. David Fincher was at a recent show. Ariana Grande and Jonathan Bailey were at the 6 December evening show. Josh Gad and Andrew Rannells were at the 13 December matinee. Dave Bautista, Maude Apatow, Renee Rapp, Rachel Bloom, Jules Hough, Alan Mencken, Hillary Clinton. Brian J Smith, Harvey Guillen, Laura Linney, Karan Soni, Marcia Gay Harden. Paul Mescal, Michael Kors, Russell Tovey. Patti LuPone, Woody Harrelson, Betty Who. Glenn Close, Gayle Rankin.

I might have missed this at some point, but did Jon himself get married at some point? I feel like he's usually pretty quiet about his private life, but it seems he's wearing a ring on a significant finger in a couple of those pics?

No. He has worn different rings over the last few years but is not married and does not have a partner (that we know of). His relationship with Tima Botwin ended around May 2022.
