Jeffrey Dean Morgan Has Been So Damn Sexy For Years, and We Need to Finally Honor It

Jeffrey Dean Morgan has been making us cry (remember Denny Duquette?) and swoon with his lovable and sexy characters for years now, but while we all know he can steal a scene on screen, he's also insanely gorgeous in his everyday life. Jeffery has been in a relationship with One Tree Hill actress Hilarie Burton (they're probably married) since 2009, and they welcomed their son, Augustus, in March 2010. The Walking Dead star is also father to son Dean from a previous relationship. In addition to his wickedly handsome smile, he can also rock some serious scruff, show adorable PDA, and make glasses look like the best thing since sliced bread. Keep reading for 19 of his sexiest moments.
