It's been an entire decade since "Because I Said So" hit theaters on Feb. 2, 2007. In honor of this milestone anniversary for the romantic comedy that won our hearts, Wonderwall.com is taking a look at what its stars have been up to. The all-star cast included Diane Keaton, Mandy Moore, Piper Perabo, Gabriel Macht and more… so keep reading!

Diane Keaton played Daphne Wilder, the lovable and overbearing mother in the film. Daphne wanted what was best for her children, including worthy love interests! The meddling mother even placed a personal ad for daughter Milly! By the end of the film, we learned that while she seemed extreme, Daphne is the mother we all need.

Diane Keaton didn't slow down after making "Because I Said So." "Mama's Boy," "Mad Money," "Morning Glory" and "5 Flights Up" are just a few of the most popular films she starred in. Most recently, she was the voice of Jenny in "Finding Dory" and played Charlotte in "Love the Coopers." You can also catch her on HBO's TV series "The Young Pope" with Jude Law. As for her personal life, the single star spent the last decade raising her two adopted children, daughter Dexter and son Duke.

Mandy Moore played daughter Milly Wilder — the one who broke up with her boyfriend, inspiring mom Daphne to grow concerned and start meddling. Although Daphne tried to set her up with Jason, played by Tom Everett Scott, Milly ends up finding love with Johnny, played by Gabriel Macht.

Tom Everett Scott played dreamboat Jason, the guy Daphne picked for daughter Milly to date — and can you blame her?

Tom Everett Scott has enjoyed a successful career since making "Because I Said So," working primarily on television on projects including "Law and Order," "Sons of Anarchy," "Southland," "Beauty and the Beast," "Z Nation," "Reign" and "Scream: The TV Series." You can currently see Tom in an Oscar-nominated film, "La La Land." As for Tom's personal life? He's been happily married to Jenny Gallagher since 1997. They have two children together, Arly and Finn.

Gabriel Macht played hunky guitarist Johnny in "Because I Said So." Milly ended up falling for Johnny, and her mother ended up approving of him after all.

Gabriel Macht has starred in a number of movies since "Because I Said So." You can see him in "The Spirit," "Middle Men," "Whiteout," "One Way to Valhalla," "Love & Other Drugs," "A Bag of Hammers" and "Breaking at the Edge." But he's perhaps best known as powerful attorney Harvey Specter on the TV series "Suits," where he co-stars alongside Prince Harry's girlfriend Meghan Markle. As for Gabriel's personal life, he's been happily married to "Bloodline" actress Jacinda Barrett since 2004. They welcomed daughter Satine in 2007 and son Luca in 2014.

Lauren Graham played Maggie, Daphne Wilder's oldest daughter. Maggie, a psychologist, was married to Derek Decker, played by Colin Ferguson.

After "Because I Said So," Lauren Graham starred in movies including "Evan Almighty," "Birds of America," "Flash of Genius," "The Answer Man," "It's Kind of a Funny Story," and "A Merry Friggin' Christmas." She was also the voice of Fran Lockwood in "Cloudy with a Chance of Meatballs." After her beloved television series "Gilmore Girls" wound down in 2007, Lauren played another inspiring single mom, Sarah Braverman, on the dramedy "Parenthood." In 2016, she reprised her role as Lorelai Gilmore in the Netflix reboot "Gilmore Girls: A Year in the Life." Lauren's been dating Peter Krause, who played her brother on "Parenthood," since 2010. She told People magazine, "I mean, he's really my favorite person to talk to. And he always makes me laugh. He's really, really funny."

Piper Perabo (right) played Daphne Wilder's middle daughter, Mae, who's married and very open about her sex life.

Piper Perabo became more of a TV star after "Because I Said So." She most recently starred as Julia George on ABC's "Notorious" and previously played Annie Walker on "Covert Affairs" and Simone on "Go On." Her most recent film role was in "Into the Grizzly Maze." As for Piper's personal life, she married her "Covert Affairs" director and executive producer Stephen Kay in July 2014. And did you know that she's also a restaurateur? In 2012, she opened a bistro called Jack's Wife Freda in New York City's Soho neighborhood. In 2015, a second location opened in the West Village.

Stephen Collins played Johnny's father, Joe. Joe and Daphne Wilder end up falling for each other. Stephen spoke to TV Guide in 2007 about what it was like to play Diane Keaton's love interest. "Listen, for me, Diane is the thinking man's babe of my generation. I always thought she was stupendously attractive, completely lust-worthy, and getting up close to her doesn't change that one bit. There's something so sexy about an actor who's wildly talented," he said.

After "Because I Said So," Stephen Collins continued to play his most famous role — the Rev. Eric Camden on the TV series "7th Heaven" — until its final episode aired in May 2007. He continued to work on television, appearing on shows including "No Ordinary Family," "Devious Maids" and "Revolution." But his career temporarily came to a halt after he made headlines for sexually abusing three underage women earlier in his career. He issued a public apology through People magazine in December 2014, writing, "I deeply regret the mistakes I've made and any pain I have caused these three women. I admit to, apologize for and take responsibility for what I did." He and second wife Faye Grant, with whom he has a daughter, finalized their divorce about a year later.

Colin Ferguson had the small role of Maggie's husband, Derek Decker, in "Because I Said So." Although it seemed like everything was great between them, it was later revealed that Derek and Maggie had been in therapy for two months.

Colin Ferguson had bigger roles on television after "Because I Said So." He was Jack Carter on "Eureka," Tripp Cooke on "The Vampire Diaries," Paul Watson on "Cedar Cove" and William on "Haven." Most recently, he was in a couple of TV movies: "Every Christmas Has a Story" and "Framed for Murder: A Fixer Upper Mystery." And did you know that he's also the latest actor to play the Maytag man in the company's ad campaign? He might entice you to buy a new washer and dryer, but he's not single! Colin has been married to Lindsay Thompson since 2012.
