In a separate interview, Grant said he met Delaney when he was still starring on "Edge of Night," sadly, their marriage didn't last long, and they soon divorced.
The "All My Children" actress and Grant didn't welcome any children during their union, but she had her first child in her second one.

In 1989, Delaney gave marriage another go when she married another actor, Joseph Michael Cortese. During their marriage, the couple welcomed one child, son Jack Cortese, who was born in 1990, before his parents' union concluded in divorce in 1994.
Although the "NYPD Blue" actress and her son's father went their separate ways, they maintained a close bond. In early February 2020, the former couple and their now-adult son posed for a picture while eating dinner together at Dear John's restaurant, as seen on Delaney's Instagram post.
A now older Delaney didn't shy away from showing off her son. For his birthday in March 2023, the celebrity shared an Instagram picture of them posing together, wished her "moon" and "star" a happy birthday, and declared her love to him. Before getting married for the third time, Delaney got engaged.
In April 1997, when Delaney's son was six, she got engaged to Alan Barnette. By 2002, she and the television producer lived together in Beverly Hills. The former couple remained engaged for years, but by July 2007, she was single again. Despite having gone through several relationships, Delaney never gave up on love.

The first time Delaney appeared on her Instagram account with her mystery man was on November 10, 2021. At the time, the couple was all smiles as they embraced at the beach for a selfie taken by her unnamed man.
In December 2022, the star posed while sitting on her man's lap, sharing that they attended a birthday celebration with the mystery man's mother, organizing the decorations.
What was noticeable in that Instagram image was that the couple wore rings on their wedding band fingers.
The happy couple featured together again on the social media platform in more formal wear on February 3, 2023.
The actress revealed they'd gone out for brunch in Santa Monica, California, with her hinting who he is by adding the hashtag "hubby."
On October 12, 2023, Delaney uploaded an incomplete Instagram photo of herself embracing the new man in her life. The celebrity appeared to be wearing a white wedding dress, and the guy wore a black suit.
In the post's caption, she called him her "best friend" and wished him a happy anniversary. The actress also described him as her "soulmate, "heart," and her "world," but didn't clearly state if they'd gotten married privately or not.
