After the eight-year-long run of the hit TV series, Messing married actor-producer Daniel Zelman, with whom she raises a four-year-old son. The redheaded actress was a virtual unknown when she was picked to play the lovable character of Grace in 1996. Then 30, she was relatively old by Hollywood standards and was considering taking a break from acting. The role made her famous, and during it`s run she starred in a clutch of big screen movies. After leaving the show Messing appeared in the mini-series `The Starter Wife`, for which she won a Tony Award. PTI
