A whole new generation is about to be introduced to one of the most beloved boy bands of the 1990s when Taylor Hanson begins his dance journey on Dancing With the Stars. The middle Hanson brother is partnered with Britt Stewart in Season 35 of the dance competition.
And he'll certainly have a strong support system as he takes on this challenge. In addition to his brothers, the 43-year-old singer will have his wife, Natalie Bryant, and their many kids cheering him on. Scroll down to learn more about his family.
Taylor and Natalie got married in June 2002, two years after they met. She mostly lives her life out of the public eye, homeschooling her and Taylor's kids.
Natalie started the baby-naming consultation company Modern Moniker with Zac Hanson's wife, Kate Hanson, in 2020, but their Instagram account stopped posting in 2021. Over the years, she has also written various pieces about parenting, including a monthly recurring column for TulsaKids. She previously had her own blog, as well, but the domain is no longer up and running.
Taylor and his two brothers/bandmates, Zac and Isaac Hanson, all met their wives at their own concerts. Zac and Taylor met their wives at the same show in Atlanta in 2000. Taylor was 17 at the time.

A number of stars from overseas have joined the Women's Super League this summer - but one move that has gone slightly under the radar could turn out to be more important than them all.
Kirsty Hanson has swapped Aston Villa for Tottenham and there is reason to believe Spurs have quietly pulled off a recruitment masterstroke.
The 28-year-old was the third-highest goalscorer in the WSL last season despite the Scotland forward's side labouring in ninth place in the table.
With 12 goals in 22 matches, only PFA player of the year Khadija Shaw and England striker Alessia Russo scored more than her.
So why did Hanson make the move and how does she intend to take ambitious Tottenham - who start their WSL season on 6 September at home to West Ham - to another level this season?

USC football fans know that in 2025, the Trojans went back to being an offense-first team after the defense-first season of 2024. The defense regressed under D'Anton Lynn, but Jayden Maiava emerged as a formidable Big Ten quarterback with help from a revived running game, the dynamism of Makai Lemon, and a much-improved offensive line under high-quality position coach Zach Hanson.
The result was a 9-3 record. The defense wasn't good enough against the top teams on USC's schedule, and it's the defense which should bear most of the blame for those three losses. However, it's not as though the USC offense maxed out in those games. It played fairly well against Illinois but was way too sloppy against Notre Dame and Oregon. The Trojans left plenty of points on the field. They lacked the extra measure of discipline needed to score what a Lincoln Riley offense should be able to score.
Lincoln Riley was able to win 55-52 and 56-49 games at Oklahoma in the Big 12. He hasn't been winning them at USC. He lost 43-42 to Utah in his first year. He lost 52-42 to Washington in his second season. He lost 46-45 to Tulane in the 2023 Cotton Bowl. It's not a sustainable way to play. However, in 2025, USC's offense wasn't even scoring 40 points in the most important games on the schedule.
USC should try scoring 40 again. The Trojans could see if that will be enough to win.
USC lost 34-24 at Notre Dame last season. It lost 34-32 to Illinois. It lost 42-27 to Oregon. If USC had scored 40 in those three games, it wouldn't have won all of them, but it would have won two of them. The difference between being 0-3 and 2-1 in three marquee games is the difference between being a playoff team and an Alamo Bowl team.

After finishing a disappointing ninth in the Women's Super League last season, Aston Villa have freshened things up by adding Scandinavian talent to their squad.
Players from Scandinavia are no novelty in the WSL, it is a well-sailed passage across the North Sea for players from the region.
But Villa signing four Scandinavian players this summer - three from Norway and one from Denmark - among eight senior arrivals, having previously had none, is notable.
The total number of senior players from Norway, Finland, Sweden and Denmark in the WSL is 42 across 14 clubs, and Villa now have the fourth largest contingent behind Tottenham (10), Manchester United (seven) and Liverpool (six).
Manager Natalie Arroyo and the Villa recruitment team have turned to Scandinavia to help plug senior squad gaps left by the departures of Kirsty Hanson to Spurs and Ebony Salmon to West Ham, and the retirement of Lucy Staniforth, among others.

Exactly 27 years to the day that Don Garber was introduced as Major League Soccer's second commissioner in 1999, LAFC co-managing owner Larry Berg pledged to improve on his predecessor's success upon taking over MLS' leading role on Jan. 1, 2027.
"My responsibility is to work with our clubs, our owners and everyone across this league to build on that foundation to help Major League Soccer reach its full potential," Berg, 60, told media members and hundreds of league employees Tuesday afternoon at the league's Manhattan headquarters.
Garber helped build MLS from a fledgling operation fighting to stay afloat and relevant to a 30-team behemoth with soccer-specific stadiums, youth academies and developmental leagues where the average franchise is valued at $767 million, a 39% increase since 2021. Of the 30 most valuable global soccer clubs, seven of them are MLS teams, led by Inter Miami, which stars Lionel Messi, arguably the greatest player in the sport's history. Sponsorship revenue in 2025 was an estimated $716 million, up 8% year over year.
But there are plenty of growth areas Berg, a former senior partner at Apollo Global Management and 26 North, wants to utilize as commissioner. The co-chair of MLS' sporting and competition committee, Berg has the full backing of league owners — who unanimously approved his appointment over the other finalist, former Fox executive David Nathanson — to enact meaningful changes to supercharge the league's growth. Garber already spearheaded a change in the league's calendar, which will switch to a fall-to-spring season starting in 2027 to align with the European leagues. That, Berg said, will greatly help the quality on the field, but so will changing the league's roster investment model so teams are able to acquire better players and build deeper rosters.
MLS currently has a $6.4 million salary cap, but various roster exceptions enable the majority of 2026 payrolls to be in the $12-21 million range. Owners have agreed that the current system is too restrictive. Berg said his No. 1 job is enhancing the roster investment model so teams can have more freedom to construct teams that work best for their markets.

Muay Thai, a combat style with roots in close-quarter fighting from 7th Century Southeast Asia, has evolved over two millennia into a brutally effective means of self-defense. Today, it's often called "the Art of Eight Limbs." The wealth of diversity that started flourishing in Northern California in the wake of the Vietnam War meant that an array of Muay Thai masters were now living and teaching in cities from San Francisco to Stockton. Gyms fine-tuning the method's array of punches, kicks, knee-strikes and elbow-strikes have become plentiful enough – including in Northwest Nevada – that a robust competition circuit has become increasingly popular in the Sacramento Valley. On Saturday night, Hard Rock Live in Wheatland, working with World Fighting Championships and Rising Stars Muay Thai, will bring the first-ever, lightning-placed Muay Thai throw-down to the Yuba-Sutter Region.
The action starts at 7 p.m.
The night's main event is a championship match between Antonio Martinez (12-4) of Monster Muay Thai in Flagstaff, Arizona, and Eddie Abasolo (11-7) of Combat Sports Academy in Dublin, California. The winner will walk away with the WFC Professional Muay Thai Championship.
The co-main event will see undefeated Garrett Boyer (5-0) of Vital Force Muay Thai taking on Sacramento's Alberto Montano (11-2), with the victor getting crowned both the WFC Amateur Muay Thai Champion and Rising Stars Muay Thai Amateur Champion.
Organizers say the professional undercard features several compelling matchups, including Caley Scott (0-1) of Omni Movement taking on Sacramento's Cy Hanson (0-0) of Sit Thongsai, as well as undefeated Joe Kimbrough (4-0) of Black Flag Kickboxing facing hometown fighter Marcos Jimenez (1-0) of Collective Combat Academy.

It is clear from Tottenham's summer transfer business that they have big ambitions in the Women's Super League next season.
Martin Ho's side have strengthened in the market, building a squad that, on paper, could cause a stir among the league's top clubs.
They finished fifth in the WSL last season - a significant improvement on the year before when they flirted with relegation.
Tottenham broke their club-record signing this summer to bring in France defender Alice Sombath from Lyon, having spent around £375,000 on Signe Gaupset in January.
They also signed forwards Shekiera Martinez and Kirsty Hanson, defender Caitlin Dijkstra, midfielder Victoria Pelova and goalkeeper Selma Panengstuen.

Elliot Page is drawing attention after sharing new photos and videos from a boxing workout, with fans praising his muscular physique and dedication to fitness.
The actor, who has made boxing a key part of his routine, offered a glimpse into his training alongside coach Nolan Hanson while reflecting on the sport's importance in his life.
Elliot Page's physique showcase comes amid intense online debate over the actor's casting in Christopher Nolan's upcoming adaptation of "The Odyssey."

Jun. 4—ABERDEEN — A play at the plate in the bottom of the seventh inning was the difference in a Class B quarterfinal thriller between No. 4 seed Hanson and No. 5 Avon on Thursday at the Players Softball Complex.
Having rallied from five runs down in the final frame to tie the game, Hanson's Delaney Jarding sprinted from second base to home plate on a batted ball that was bobbled but didn't leave the infield dirt with two outs.
The gamble paid off, as Jarding was ruled to have barely beaten a tag in a close play at the plate, giving the Beavers a dramatic 11-10 walk-off win. Jozlynn Tegethoff provided the game-winning hit for Hanson, which had trailed 7-0 in the fourth inning and 10-5 in the seventh. All 11 of the Beavers' runs were scored in either the fourth or seventh frames.
Jarding, Neecee Suber, Jacey Schoenrock and Rylee Furgeson all recorded two hits and scored two runs apiece for Hanson, which had 10 hits total. Furgeson and Marah Doyle each dive in two runs. Schoenrock hurled all seven innings in the circle, finishing with five strikeouts, four walks and seven earned runs allowed.
Kaydence Metzger had three hits and drove in one run for Avon, though she was also tagged with the pitching loss, yielding three walks and six earned runs with five strikeouts. Rowan Brandt, Rilyn Thury, Brielle Voigt, Pria Sesler and Kensley DeVries all added two hits toward the Pirates' total of 14 hits, as Sesler had three runs batted in and Voigt tacked on a pair. Both teams had four errors.

In NFL Network merger, Scott Hanson wasn't transferred to ESPN
Most NFL Media employees were transferred to ESPN as of April 1, when Bristol's NFL Network takeover became effective. There was one major exception.
