Marcia Cross, who played Bree Van De Kamp in the famous TV series Desperate Housewives, dreamed of becoming an actress in her early childhood. Marcia Cross graduated from acting school and made her debut in the television series On the Threshold of the Night. The actress gained fame for her role in the series Melrose Place, but she became really popular after filming Desperate Housewives.
When Desperate Housewives took a break from filming, Marcia Cross went to university. She received her degree in psychology.
In 1993, the common-law husband of the actress Richard Jordan died of a brain tumor. Marcia took this loss so hard that for ten years she did not meet with anyone and was completely immersed in work. Rumors about the actress's non-traditional sexual orientation even began to leak into the press, but in 2006 she married stock broker Tom Mahoney. In 2007, the couple had twin daughters. Marcia gave birth to children when she was already 42 years old. Marcia Cross became pregnant during the filming of the third season of Desperate Housewives, so she was not filmed in full height, and then, according to the script, was sent on a honeymoon for a while.
Ironically, Marcia Cross's husband has also been battling cancer for years.
At the end of the show, Marcia Cross herself decided to take a break and put her acting career on hold. The actress told reporters that the series literally drained her as a person. She was very tired of the grueling filming and constant conflicts between the actresses involved in the series.
Maricia Cross plunged into family life. She's not filmed anywhere.
