While John Cho has been gracing our screens for years now, he’s not the only one with a lengthy resume filled with acting credits. Cho’s wife, Kerri Higuchi, landed her first gig back in 1998, appearing in a short called, World Inside Me. Since then, she’s appeared on several notable television shows including, ER, Parks and Recreation and Grey’s Anatomy.
The majority of her gigs were one-off appearances, but Higuchi did land a recurring role on Grey’s Anatomy, appearing on the show as OB/GYN Elizabeth Chen in seasons one and six. Fun fact: Higuchi’s hubby also had a turn at Seattle Grace Mercy West Hospital, showing up as Dr. Marshall Stone in season two.
For a time, Higuchi was regularly booking gigs. However, at the time of this writing, her most acting credit is an appearance on Scandal back in 2015. That’s because, these days, she’s focusing on raising her kiddos with Cho telling Glamour, “She’s mainly a stay-at-home mom.” After Cho and Higuchi tied the knot in 2006, the couple welcomed two children into the world. Their first child, a boy, was born in 2008, and their daughter was born in 2013.
While it’s unclear whether or not Higuchi will start acting again once her kids get a little older, it’s evident that Cho equally respects his wife as an actor and a mother. “She’s such a good actor,” he told Glamour. “I’ve learned a lot from her.” Aww, way to give credit where credit is due, John!
