All about Hank Azaria’s wife

1. Katie Wright had a relative who she never knew until they met on a movie set. She is the younger half-sister of Jack Noseworthy, her co-star in Idle Hands (1999). She learned about their relationship while working with him in the film.

2. Wright’s net worth is still under consideration but it is speculated that it would be an impressive sum. Meanwhile, her husband has an impressive net worth estimated at $70 million.

3. She retired from acting in 2001 and studied to become a family therapist. Her husband, however, mentioned that if he hadn’t become an actor, he would have become a therapist. I just wondered if that was what brought them together in the first place: their love for therapy.
