Andre Braugher’s Wife — Into the Late Actor’s Married Life and Sexuality

Andre Braugher had been married for over 3 decades before his unfortunate passing.

Published

on

Andre Braugher was a two-time Emmy-winning actor known for his performances in two NBC shows, as Detective Frank Pembleton in Homicide: Life on the Street and Captain Raymond Holt in Brooklyn Nine-Nine.

Apart from the two NBC dramas, he gained the limelight for his portrayal in other movies and TV shows, including Men of a Certain Age, Primal Fear, City of Angels, Poseidon, Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, Thief, The Good Fight, BoJack Horseman, and New Girl.

Given his success in Hollywood, Braugher’s career might have been more fruitful. However, it was cut short due to his unfortunate death on Monday, December 11, 2023, after a brief illness, as confirmed to Variety by his publicist, Jennifer Allen.

As of this writing, there have been no further revelations about the late actor’s death – which was announced on Tuesday, December 12 – including his cause of death. But his unfortunate passing has made many wonder if he left any family behind.

Is Andre Braugher married?

To those wondering if Braugher left any family behind, the answer is yes. The late actor had been married to his longtime wife, Ami Brabson, since 1991. Brabson is a talented actress, and her website mentions she is also a singer and producer.

Braugher and Brabson first met each other while working together in Homicide: Life on the Street. Brabson played the role of Braugher’s on-screen spouse, Mary Pembleton, in the NBC police drama.

It was there they fell in love and decided to embark on a journey of a lifetime. In 1991, the love birds walked down the aisle and shared their wedding vows amongst close friends and family members in an intimate ceremony.

As of this writing, there is little to no information about Braugher’s wedding to his then-girlfriend. That said, it was evident that the now-late actor was head over heels for Brabson and had high praises for her as an actress.

For instance, during his 1996 interview with The Washington Post, Braugher praised his wife’s acting talents and said he loved working alongside her. He stated, “I think she’s a fine actress. We already have a history together.”

“We understand each other, so we communicate very easily. We have similar tastes about what is good and bad in the course of a scene, and we agree about the complexities of each of our characters, and things seem to go quite well, and I enjoy it a lot,” he added.

The Baytown Outlaws star also applauded Brabson’s theater production in his 2019 Instagram post. He wrote, “So proud to announce my remarkably talented wife Ami, will be starring in her production of Phenomenal Women this weekend at the Baltimore Theater Project!”

As he continued, he stressed that his wife, whom he called his favorite phenomenal woman, had done an incredible performance. He also encouraged anyone in the area to check out the theater production.

Likewise, during his 2020 interview with Variety, Braugher opened up about his relationship with his spouse. He mentioned that they were like-minded; they grew up in similar neighborhoods and shared the same values.

“She knows me like the back of her hand, and I’m grateful for that,” he added. The now-late actor also talked about how he consulted with his wife for many things, including his professional life, meaning that his wife’s counsel was paramount.

To conclude, Braugher and Brabson had a blissful marital relationship filled with love and respect for each other and their professional work. And it can only be fitting to say that they held each other, loved each other, and cherished each other until they were parted by death.

Andre Braugher and Ami Brabson shared three kids

In Andre and Ami’s marriage of more than three decades, they enjoyed many things, but none of those things might have matched their happiness when they welcomed their children into their house.

The now-late actor was a father of three children – all sons – named Michael Braugher, Isaiah Braugher, and John Wesley Braugher. Andre’s children have remained out of their parents’ limelight and live a private life.

Michael, roughly 32 years of age in December 2023, is the eldest child of Andre and Ami. As per reports, he is a musician and is also following in his parents’ footsteps. He is enrolled at The Juilliard School and has made his theatre and television debut.

Isaiah is the middle child, and John (born in 2003) is the youngest child of Andre and Ami. Both Isaiah and John maintain a private life and rarely make a public appearance. Due to this, there is little to no information about them.

That said, the now-late actor talked a bit about his children and spending time with his spouse during his 2020 Variety interview. He said that he traveled to New Jersey every weekend to see his family even though Brooklyn Nine-Nine was being filmed in Los Angeles.

He stated, “I made a choice along the way that Ami and those boys were too important to not spend quantity time with. Both the health crisis and the democracy crisis that we’re going through demonstrate to me that there’s no substance in the bling.”

During the same interview, Andre also took pride in choosing to spend his available time with his family rather than traveling the world. “I haven’t been in Australia. I haven’t been in Prague. I haven’t been shooting in San Paolo or whatever,” he said.

“I’ve got three boys, and I want them to know me as someone other than the guy who takes them to the circus every once in a while. I wanted to be there through the course of their life because I know how important fathers are,” he concluded his statement.

Andre Braugher’s sexuality was questioned despite being married to wife

After Andre began playing the role of Captain Raymond Holt in Brooklyn Nine-Nine, people began to question his sexuality and wonder if he was gay. It’s because his character, Raymond Holt, was openly gay and married to a husband.

Andre’s flawless portrayal of a gay character was impressive and led many of the viewers to question the now-late actor’s sexuality. However, by the time the show was released, many familiar with Andre already knew that he wasn’t gay and his sexuality was straight.

That said, Andre was all serious while playing the role of a gay black man. During his 2013 interview with The Huffington Post, he explained that he intends to make sure that his character is not only funny but also a respectable caricature of a gay man.

He stated, “I think it’s wonderful that it’s part of a complex person, as opposed to the defining characteristic, because when it is the defining characteristic, it’s always gonna bump up, inevitably, against good taste and wind up creating an offensive stereotype.”

Furthermore, in one of his interviews, he mentioned having a conversation with one of his sons about how gay characters were portrayed on television. Andre disclosed that his son was initially weirded out, but it all made sense to him after a meaningful conversation.

Richard Gadd’s Controversial Romance with Actress Auditioning for ‘Baby Reindeer’

All about his former dating life.

Richard Gadd’s Controversial Romance with Actress Auditioning for ‘Baby Reindeer’

Baby Reindeer was a great hit for Richard Gadd, the creator and star of the Netflix series.

The British black comedy drama-thriller was adapted from Gadd’s autobiographical one-man show and hit the streaming service on April 11, 2024. The 7-episode drama, produced by  Clerkenwell Films, was an instant hit and grabbed the attention of millions worldwide.

As Baby Reindeer was based on Gadd’s real-life events, viewers were instantly accustomed to digging deeper into the happenings of the series, mainly relationships. As if that wasn’t enough, his professional conduct was also questioned.

Days after Baby Reindeer hit Netflix, on April 16, 2024, a transgender actress named Reece Lyons came forward on X, claiming she and Gadd dated for a brief period and that she also auditioned for the role of Gadd’s ex-girlfriend, Teresa “Teri,” in the Netflix series.

Lyons never specifically mentioned Gadd or Baby Reindeer in her X thread but an investigation by Deadline confirmed that she was indeed talking about the Netflix show and its creator.

In her X thread, Lyons mentioned that she didn’t believe she was a victim of abuse but acknowledged that Gadd hurt her even if there was no conscious intent to do so. Additionally, she was hurt by Gadd “conflating a work opportunity with a dating dynamic.”

As per Deadline, Gadd and Lyons first met each other in October 2021. Both of them were in the bar of London’s Bush Theatre after Lyons had performed the one-woman show Overflow.

“I had met him in the bar after one of my shows. He was with a friend; they both approached me after my performance to congratulate me, and that’s when he offered to buy me a drink,” Lyons recalled her first encounter with Gadd on her X thread.

She then stated that she initially thought of declining the offer as she didn’t know Gadd but before she could decline the offer, she recognized him. She claimed that Gadd had followed her on Instagram a month earlier.

It was at that moment she realized that this wasn’t a normal chance encounter. She decided to accept his offer for a drink, after which they began their conversation. “We split off from his friend, and he began to tell me about his upcoming Netflix show that he had written,” she wrote.

Lyons continued her X thread by writing that Gadd had offered her the role of his ex-girlfriend, a trans woman. As per Lyons, Gadd mentioned that he allegedly didn’t treat his now-former girlfriend the best.

When Gadd offered the role, Lyons claimed she was interested in auditioning for the role and told him to contact her agent. Right after that, Gadd allegedly expressed his romantic feelings for Lyons.

Weeks after their first meet, Gadd contacted Lyons and asked her out on a date. She agreed even though she was mindful of the overlap between the romantic invitation and the upcoming audition. During their date, their conversations didn’t turn out well.

After a week, Lyons texted him and ended things prematurely. She told him that she didn’t think the conflation of the upcoming audition for Baby Reindeer and dating each other at the same time was very wise, and Gadd replied that he understood what she meant.

However, things didn’t end then and there between the two, as Lyons claimed that Gadd spontaneously called her two weeks later and expressed his desire to try dating again. When he said that, she felt conflicted as she had previously set clear boundaries and he appeared to understand them.

“‘What if I say, no?’ I asked myself. ‘Does that mean he would feel slighted, and I wouldn’t get the chance to audition?’ I decided to say yes and quickly found myself pulled back into his emotional chaos again,” Lyons wrote on her X thread.

As per Deadline, Gadd and Lyons had gone on four dates between October and November 2021, before the former decided to end things permanently in December of the same year. As per sources close to Gadd, some conversations about a Baby Reindeer audition might have taken place while the two were dating.

In March 2022, three months after Gadd and Lyons broke up, the latter auditioned for the role of Teresa “Teri” and submitted her self-tape to Nina Gold Casting. However, she wasn’t offered the role and it ultimately went to Mexican actress Nava Mau.

Deadline reported in May 2024 that Gadd had no control over the casting process on Baby Reindeer but provided some feedback on audition tapes to Clerkenwell Films. Likewise, Gadd and Lyons seemingly had a final conversation after the actress for the role of Teresa “Teri” was finalized.

As per Lyons’ X thread, Gadd reportedly consoled her over the phone and mentioned that her audition was exceptional. “But it’s out of my hands. Netflix is looking for somebody who’s already a star,” Gadd reportedly told Lyons.

Sources close to Gadd stated that Lyons was the one who asked him for feedback on her audition on the day of rejection. She then asked him, “But what about us?” to which he replied, “It’s not going to work. You’re too confrontational for me.” “And that was it,” she concluded.

After Lyons went public with her relationship with Gadd, Baby Reindeer’s producer Clerkenwell Films launched an investigation into Lyons’ comments. This investigation revealed that Gadd had not disclosed his romantic liaison with Lyons to Clerkenwell Films.

During the investigation process, Lyons was neither interviewed on the phone nor in person, as Clerkenwell Films believed that her X thread, along with other evidence, was enough. Clerkenwell Films ultimately concluded that Gadd behaved professionally and casting decisions were not compromised.

Logan Lerman Sealed the Deal with a Heartwarming Proposal

Love was in the air for Logan Lerman as the talented actor took a significant step in his personal life. After years of a blissful relationship, he finally popped the question to his longtime girlfriend, Analuisa Corrigan, in November 2023. 

The Percy Jackson star sealed the deal with a heartwarming proposal, officially taking their romance to the next level. Fans and well-wishers alike eagerly await the details of this romantic milestone as the couple prepares to embark on marital bliss.

 In this article, we delve into the captivating tale of Lerman’s proposal, their relationship, and the woman who has captured his heart.

Logan Lerman opened up about his proposal to Analusia Corrigan

Lerman recently opened up about the charming way he proposed to his longtime girlfriend, Corrigan. 

During an appearance on The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, the 32-year-old actor shared the delightful details of how he popped the question in an unconventional yet romantic setting – a rowboat in New York City’s iconic Central Park.

He revealed that while in New York, he initially had no concrete plan for the proposal but soon realized he needed a private and intimate setting.

Corrigan, 29, pointed out the rowboats; he thought it would be a perfect idea but discovered that he lacked the necessary rowing skills.

He described how his fiancée ended up doing all the hard work, rowing the boat. At the same time, he sat back and enjoyed the scenery.

As they drew the attention of onlookers amused by the sight of Corrigan manning the oars, he bided his time until they reached a secluded part of the lake.

In that tranquil moment, surrounded by the beauty of Central Park, Lerman seized the opportunity and popped the question to his beloved. 

Despite the initial challenges, the proposal went smoothly. Lerman’s heartwarming tale beautifully captures the essence of love, spontaneity, and the willingness to embrace unexpected moments that make memories truly special.

After the heartwarming proposal in Central Park, Lerman and his fiancée, Corrigan, made a stunning red carpet appearance, celebrating their love and future together. 

On March 21, the couple graced the premiere of Hulu’s We Were the Lucky Ones in Los Angeles, radiating joy and complementing each other perfectly with their coordinated looks.

Lerman, known for his role in Bullet Train, cut a dashing figure in a sleek black overcoat and dress pants, adding a touch of sophistication with a silver silk shirt. Meanwhile, Corrigan, stunned in a chic black bandeau dress, exuding elegance and confidence.

Their red carpet debut as an engaged couple came four months after Corrigan took to Instagram to share the exciting news of Lerman’s proposal. 

In a heartfelt post, she playfully referred to her future husband as “Mrs. Logie,” accompanied by a series of endearing snapshots, including a photo booth strip capturing their loving embrace and a close-up video showcasing the exquisite engagement ring.

Lerman, clearly smitten, responded with a sweet comment, expressing his love for his “sweetie.” 

Who is Analusia Corrigan?

Lerman’s fiancée, Corrigan, is a talented artist whose journey has been shaped by her diverse cultural experiences and the unwavering support of her family. 

Growing up in San Diego, her frequent road trips to Mexico with her mother instilled in her a deep appreciation for culture, which she later incorporated into her art.

It was her father’s work with the renowned Alvin Ailey dance company in New York City that ignited a new creative spark within her. She viewed the crew as a “window to real people in real life,” an experience she didn’t have on the West Coast. 

Her parents played a pivotal role in nurturing her artistic aspirations, always ensuring that she understood the value of the arts and that being an artist was a viable career path.

Her artistic pursuits led her to enroll at the Parsons School of Design, where she initially studied oil painting but later pivoted to graphic design, realizing the challenges of succeeding in the former field. 

However, after graduation, Corrigan discovered that her true passion lay not in technology but in creating tangible works with her hands.

It was during the COVID-19 pandemic that Corrigan found her calling in ceramic art, initially selling ashtrays and mugs with unique designs. Her work explores “figurative shapes and their innate matter, language and sensation,” as described on her website. 

From lamps and mirrors to wall hangings, Corrigan’s creations are a testament to her talent and dedication.

Now displaying her art at shows and during New York City’s design week, Corrigan has garnered a steady stream of clients. She remains grateful for the opportunity to have her creations grace the intimate spaces of people’s homes. 

Logan Lerman’s relationship timeline with Analusia Corrigan

Lerman and Corrigan’s relationship timeline is a heartwarming tale of love that blossomed from a long-distance connection into a deep, lasting bond. 

The couple first sparked romance rumors in January 2020 when they were linked together. However, they kept their relationship relatively private in its early stages.

It wasn’t until August 2022 that Lerman and Corrigan made their red carpet debut as a couple at the premiere of Bullet Train, marking a significant milestone in their journey together. 

Despite the initial distance, with Corrigan residing in New York City and Lerman in Los Angeles, they found a way to make their relationship thrive.

She has provided glimpses into their life together through her Instagram account, which is primarily dedicated to showcasing her exceptional work as a ceramic artist. 

However, she occasionally shares endearing snaps of Lerman, who sometimes lends a helping hand in her studio, highlighting the supportive and collaborative nature of their partnership.

Lerman, too, has been unafraid to express his adoration for Corrigan publicly. In December 2021, he penned a heartfelt tribute on her 27th birthday, referring to her as his “best friend” and expressing his gratitude for having her in his life, making every day “better and brighter.”

Then, during one of Corrigan’s visits to Los Angeles, the lockdown occurred, leading her to extend her stay with Lerman and allowing them to strengthen their bond further.

Over the past three years, Lerman and Corrigan have embraced adventures together, exploring the world hand in hand. 

From hiking in the Pacific Northwest to immersing themselves in the beauty of Italy, their love has flourished amidst breathtaking landscapes and new experiences.

As their relationship deepened, they reached significant milestones, such as attending Lerman’s co-star Joey King’s wedding in Mallorca together in 2023. 

Their commitment culminated in Lerman’s heartwarming proposal to Corrigan in November 2023, marking the beginning of a new chapter in their enduring love story.
