Ginaās famous husband
Ginaās husband is also a famous face in the entertainment industry. The 40-year-old met her husband, actor Joe LoCicero, on the set of Jane the Virgin back in 2016, when Gina starred as the titular character and Joe played a stripper.Ā
Joe, 38, is perhaps best known for playing Vincent Walker in the CBS soap opera, The Bold and the Beautiful. He also appeared alongside his wife in the Netflix films Players and Someone Great.Ā
Gina and Joe got engaged in 2018 and tied the knot the following year.
Opening up about her relationship back in 2019, Gina revealed that dating Joe was āa new experience because I put myself firstā.Ā
āFor so long, I put every man in front of me,ā she told Cosmopolitan. āAs a successful woman, it is so hard because of our cultural norms that, like, the man has to be the breadwinner! And the man has to be the more powerful one. It was so difficult for me to find a man who didnāt want me to dim my light for his ego.ā
Back in June 2023, Gina called Joe āthe love of my lifeā and her ābest friendā in a gushing post to mark Fatherās Day. āI knew it when I met you that I found a man like no other,ā penned the star, alongside a snap of Joe with their son, Charlie. āWhen I walked down the aisle and you cried tears of joy, I knew I found someone extra special. I knew a great man would make a great dad. I donāt know much but I know Charlie and I are two of the luckiest people in the world to have you,ā wrote the actress.Ā
Gina and Joeās sonĀ
In 2023, Gina and Joe welcomed a son named Charlie, who often features on the Players starās Instagram account. Back in October, Gina shared an adorable snap of her and Charlie. In the caption, she penned a sweet message: āMy little guru, you have taught me so much and Iām so excited to keep learning. I love you, Charlie.ā
Back in May 2023, Gina got candid about parenthood and opened up about her feelings of mom guilt. āI think now that Iām a mom, I look at these moments as being a little selfish at times,ā she told PEOPLE. āIf I go out for an hour to work out or to grab a taco, or to just read, I feel so much guilt because I miss my little man so much,ā she said. āItās something that Iām working on because I know itās not selfish. I know it brings me back to one. I know it makes me more present with him.ā
Ginaās home life
Gina and Joe moved to Oregon during the pandemic and now split their time between there and Southern California.
Speaking to Glamour about the big move, Gina shared her fears over leaving the LA bubble. āIt is still terrifying,ā she said. āEvery time we go, Iām like, āIām just a phone call away. Itās very close to LA.'ā
Sharing what she loves about Oregon, Gina said: āItās so healing and the air is so clean. Thereās just something about seeing the deer and the wild turkeys and the elk. Itās a different existence.ā
The actress continued: āGrowing up in Chicago and then going to school in New York, it was almost a culture shock. But itās been a dream. Itās been a really healing place for me and my husband.ā
