Who is Jodie Foster’s wife, Alexandra Hedison?
Jodie Foster married her American photographer and director wife Alexandra Hedison in 2014. Per People, they tied the knot in a private ceremony after dating for almost a year.
Hedison grew up in Hollywood and is a former actress who had supporting roles in Melrose Place and Lois & Clark. Years before marrying Foster, Hedison dated TV host Ellen DeGeneres in the early 2000s. “I’d have to be Oprah to compete with her,” Hedison joked to The New York Times back in 2004.
