Rebecca Rittenhouse

Biography

Rebecca Rittenhouse is an American actress who has transitioned from a rom-com favorite to a dramatic force in premium television. A graduate of the University of Pennsylvania and the Atlantic Theater Company, she first gained wide recognition as Dr. Anna Ziev in The Mindy Project before leading the cast of the Hulu psychic comedy Maggie. In early 2026, Rittenhouse is starring in the Netflix limited series "His & Hers" (premiered January 8, 2026). In this psychological thriller based on the Alice Feeney novel, she plays Lexy Jones, the ambitious Atlanta news anchor who replaces the protagonist Anna (Tessa Thompson). Rittenhouse's performance has been noted for its "icy competence," playing a character who becomes the prime rival—and a murder suspect—in the show's dark mystery. In interviews, she revealed she accepted the role without knowing her character's twist ending, which involves a shocking frame-up revealed in the series finale. Beyond acting, late 2025 marked her debut as an entrepreneur. She launched Privet Beauty, a clean beauty brand focused on eyebrow products. Rittenhouse has described the venture as a "bootstrapped" passion project born from her years in makeup chairs, and she has spent early 2026 promoting the line alongside her Netflix premiere. She is currently engaged to Kyle Robiskie, with whom she has been in a relationship since 2022.
