At this point in time it should be pretty obvious that far more actors in Hollywood have married ordinary people than those who have married within the closed-circles of the film industry.

Paul Rudd has seen his star rise remarkably quick in the 21st century, but that didn’t stop him from falling in love with Julie Yaeger.

Rudd, an experienced actor, met Yaeger when she was a film crew member. The couple got married in 2003 and now have two children.

Their first child, Jack, was born in 2006 and he was followed by a girl, Darby, who was born in 2010. Rudd has acted on both the stage and screen. Some of his memorable roles on stage include joining the cast of “The Last Night in Ballyhoo” in 1997, as well as “Twelfth Night” and “Three Days of Rain.”

He has also starred in a number of comedy films in recent years. Some of his greatest roles include contributions to films such as “Anchorman: The Legend of Ron Burgundy,” “The 40-Year-Old Virgin,” “I Love You, Man,” and “Anchorman 2: The Legend Continues.” Born and raised in the Kansas City, MO area, Rudd returns frequently to see Kansas City Royals and Kansas City Chiefs games in person.
