Mary Louise Parker

After appearing in her Broadway debut in Prelude to a Kiss, Mary-Louise Parker came to fame for her roles in films like Grand Canyon, The Client, Fried Green Tomatoes, A Place for Annie, and many others. The actress earned a Tony Award, a credit for her role in David Auburn’s Proof, where she portrayed the character of Catherine Llewellyn. Parker had a recurring role on NBC’s The West Wing as Amy Gardner between 2001 and 2006.

As she takes over the acting world, working on major productions on screen and stage, the same can’t be said to her romantic life. In the late ’90s up to mid-2000s, the actress was in a relationship with Billy Crudup. They were thrilled when they announced that they were expecting a baby, but sadly, he left Parker for Claire Danes when the actress was two months away from her due date.
