The two met in the mid-1980s, and unlike many celebrity couples, they chose to keep their romance away from the spotlight. Their wedding was a small, private affair, setting the tone for the quiet and grounded life they\u2019ve built together.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"572\" data-end=\"930\">Over the years, Harmon and Dawber have become a rare example of stability in the unpredictable world of Hollywood. While Harmon dedicated himself to NCIS, Dawber stepped away from the spotlight to focus on their family. Their relationship has always been rooted in respect, shared values, and a mutual decision to prioritize their personal lives over fame.<\/p>\n<p data-start=\"572\" data-end=\"930\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-3342\" src=\"https:\/\/ncisnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/FB_IMG_1755350125636-213x300.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"213\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/ncisnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/FB_IMG_1755350125636-213x300.jpg 213w, https:\/\/ncisnews.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/08\/FB_IMG_1755350125636.jpg 726w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 213px) 100vw, 213px\" \/><\/p>\n<p data-start=\"932\" data-end=\"1290\">Off-screen, Harmon\u2019s marriage is a stark contrast to his character Gibbs\u2019 tragic love story.
