Jo Green forgave Hugh Laurie's affair

Hugh Laurie (62), who gained fame in the series ' Blackadder' and ' Dr. House ', since 1989, has been married to theater administrator Jo Green (65).

Throughout his long acting career, Hugh has managed to keep his private life largely out of the public eye. His wife, with whom he has sons Charles (33) and William (30) and a daughter Rebecca (29), he married on June 16, 1989, and his married godfather was a close friend and colleague, comedian Stephen Fry.

Although Hugh Laurie is quite self-effacing when it comes to his family and little is known about the woman he said a fateful ‘yes’ to, he once admitted that things didn’t always go smoothly in his 32-year marriage. While filming the popular series ‘Dr. House ', he had to move to Los Angeles while his wife and children stayed at home in London. The couple thus decided not to disrupt the education of their sons and daughters.

‘I wouldn’t say filming the series eased the situation for my marriage. Improved it? I don't think that happened either. Working on the series, which airs every week, is like joining the Navy and going to the other side of the world for 10 months. But the truth is that no matter how challenging the situation, someone somewhere has an even more extreme version of it. That's why I think some things should be kept quiet and not complained about, ' the actor once told the Daily Mail.

During this period, Laurie also struggled with depression, which he also had as a teenager. His health deteriorated because he was far from his family, especially his wife, who was always his greatest support, and he listened to her advice and sought medical help. The actor said that his mother Patricia, who died in 1989, also struggled with depression.

'I wasn't ready for all that. I didn’t have a life outside of Blackadder. We used to finish filming between midnight and four in the morning. After that, I would go straight to bed. It wasn't really life ', he talked about his life while he was on the set of the series "Dr. House '.

Hugh was surprised at one time and by his honesty when he revealed that he had an affair with one of the directors he collaborated with and stressed that his marriage even endured that. The media wrote that it was Audrey Cook with whom the actor shot the children's film 'The Place of Lions' in 1997 away from home .

As reported, Jo wrote an emotional letter to Audrey to save her marriage and begged her to leave her husband. This proved to be the right move, and Laurie learned to deal with her depression through regular visits to a psychiatrist, boxing training he adores, and riding a motorcycle.

By the way, the Briton never revealed how and when he met his wife, and he is also involved in music.
