Hugh Laurie and his wife Jo Green reportedly met while she was working as a theatre administrator and it led to a relationship. Their romance started before Hugh stepped into a big spotlight in the BBC comedy. They exchanged their vows on 16 June 1989 in the Camden area of London in a beautiful ceremony in the presence of friends and family.

Hugh Laurie’s best friend and long-time comedy partner Stephen Fry was the best man at his wedding and is the godfather of Rebecca Laurie and his siblings. Hugh Laurie and his wife Jo Green have been married for more than 30 years with no marriage drama and divorce rumors.

The actor told The Guardian in 2000 that he feels very “lucky” to have his family. ” He explained.- “Having children, that’s my purpose. I am eternally in my children’s debt. They stop me thinking about other stuff,“. The actor revealed he always struggles when he is away from his adorable children.

 He told the Daily Record in 2012, “It’s a very difficult thing [being so far from my kids], I constantly marvel at how grown-up my children are, how grown-up they’re being about this,” he continued. “I worry about parenting at this sort of distance, but they are being so generous and so cool about it that. I mean, it might be because they’re English, and they won’t reveal their psychological damage until they’re in their late forties.”

When Rebecca Laurie’s father began acting in “House” in 2004, the actor didn’t move his family to the United States because he feared the show might be canceled. He also revealed in a 2008 interview that he gets embarrassed when his kids turn on “House” because he can’t help but cringe seeing himself on TV. “I don’t watch [‘House’] regularly. I avert my eyes when my children have it on,” he said. “I hate seeing myself, but it’s even worse hearing my American accent.“

While appearing on Inside the Actors Studio in 2006, Rebecca Laurie’s father Hugh discussed his struggles with severe clinical depression and credited his kids for inspiring him to push through tough times.

He told host James Lipton that he first concluded he had a problem whilst driving in a charity demolition derby, during which he realized that seeing two cars collide and explode made him feel bored rather than excited or frightened; he quipped that “boredom is not an appropriate response to exploding cars”. He continues to have regular sessions with a psychotherapist.
