After romances with actresses Wynona Rider and Samantha Mathis and model Christy Turlington, Slater finally settled down in 2000. He and television producer Ryan Haddon got married that February. The couple had two children together—a son named Jaden and a daughter named Eliana—before separating in 2005. Their divorce was finalized the following year.
Recently, Slater has taken his career in a new direction. He stars his first primetime series,
My Own Worst Enemy, playing a spy with a split personality. “There’s just not a human being on the planet that at one point or another hasn’t been their own worst enemy, and this really takes it to a phenomenal extreme,” Slater told Entertainment Weekly.

Vampires
View groupVampires prey off living creatures, stalking unsuspecting humans, sucking their blood and often turning them into vampires. Not alive but not quite dead, vampires are fictional creatures who have haunted and fascinated human populations for centuries. The notion of the fanged, transylvanian Count Dracula was first popularized in Bram Stoker's 1897 novel Dracula, but the character has seen many iterations over the years. Today's TV shows and movies portray vampires as sexy, mysterious and even sympathetic characters with meaningful relationships to humans. Here is a group of some of the most famous blood-suckers of TV and film.
