Caan Once Opened Up About His Girlfriend
In January 2013, Scott spoke publicly about his girlfriend Kacy on Chelsea Handler's "Chelsea Lately" talk show.

The couple lived together in Hawaii while Scott worked on the CBS series, "Hawaii Five-0." The actor revealed that life in Hawaii was too "relaxed" for his liking and lacked the "Hustle" he desired. He added that everything moved slowly on the island and suggested that things become active after his first move.
In 2014, one of Scott's representatives revealed that he was expecting his first child with Kacy. Josie, their first neonate, was born in July 2014. Their child was born shortly after the news broke, and a source clarified that it was not a private matter, but the news was concealed because Kacy was busy with business.
