At that point, the Mamma Mia! star told the magazine that the two of them dated but her romance with Dominic Copper kept their romance from getting serious. As per MTV, she said, “He’s superfunny, but I was too involved with Dom.”
Dominic Cooper

In an interview with Elle magazine, The Dropout actress spilled the beans on the pair’s split. According to People, she said, “I got my heart broken pretty hard. After that, it’s really hard to open myself up to a new person.”
Despite their split, the two of them mend their friendship and they even teamed up for the sequel of the 2008 film Mamma Mia! titled Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again which was released in the year 2018.
During a 2018 interview with Attitude magazine, Dominic stated that it was a positive experience all this time. He said, “We knew we were going to be working together [again] on a set, going back to a part which was certainly going to remind us of 10 years earlier, but I know her family, I know her mum, who was there a lot.”
Cooper further added, “It was a pleasant atmosphere. It was really interesting to see how different our lives are after 10 years. It is a long time and it was nice to spend time [with her].”
Even though the former flames were okay on set, Amanda did confess that her husband did get a little bit jealous that she was hanging with her ex-boyfriend. While having a 2018 chat with Mirror, the Mean Girls actress went on to say, “It’s sweet. I’d rather he be jealous than completely fine with it. He’s been great. He’s very supportive and he loves this movie, and [he and Dominic] got along absolutely fine when we were shooting.”
Ryan Phillippe
After her break up with Dominic, Seyfried moved on in her life with Cruel Intentions star Ryan Phillippe. The two of them were romantically linked in the year 2011. During their romance, they were on and off again. In an interview with Glamour UK, she admitted that the increased media attention with him may have put a strain on their relationship.
At that time, Amanda told the publication, “When I was with Ryan, people followed me so much more, and that’s probably one of the reasons that I’m not looking to date someone who’s famous now.”
Josh Hartnett
Josh HartnettShortly after her relationship with the I Know What You Did Last Summer star, Amanda briefly dated 30 Days of Night actor Josh Hartnett. After their romance ended, Seyfried didn’t appear to make a big deal about their short romance in a 2012 interview with InStyle.

Then, Seyfried said, “I followed him on Instagram. I really do have my own identity, both inside and outside the relationship, if that makes any sense. It just feels right. It’s also really good to feel OK being alone.”
During the same interview, the Things Heard & Seen actress mentioned that the life of an actress can be hard for any relationship to bloom. She said, “Making movies is two solid months of twelve-, fourteen-hour days. I mean, it can ruin your relationship.” As of this moment, more details about their break up is unknown.

During a July 2018 interview with PorterEdit , Amanda said while they were working on the play her now-husband “never flirted, [and] never disrespected his wife”. She further added, “That was another reason why I thought, later on, that I could marry him.”

The Jennifer’s Body actress revealed that she and her beau Thomas had a very low-key wedding with only them. She said, “We got married in Topanga, March last year. Just the two of us. And afterwards, I was like, ‘Can we just go to Cheebo?’ It was awesome.”
