Whatever Happened To Phoebe Cates?

At the height of her acting career, Phoebe Cates met her future husband, actor Kevin Kline, during an audition for the 1983 movie "The Big Chill." She did not get the part, but she got the guy when the two crossed paths at a theater in New York City two years later, according to Entertainment Tonight. The celebrity couple wed in 1989 and went on to welcome two kids, Owen and Greta, who are now all grown up and have careers in the entertainment industry themselves, per Country Living.

Cates never officially publicly announced her retirement from acting after her kids were born in the 1990s, but Kline once hinted that her step back had everything to do with her new role as a mom. "We have agreed to alternate so that we're never working at the same time," Kline told Playboy in 1998, per NZ Herald. "[But] whenever it's been her slot to work, Phoebe has chosen to stay with the children."
