Gia Ruiz, Danny Mcbride’s Wife: 5 Facts to Know About the Director
The stunning director was born Gia Marina Ruiz in Los Angeles, California, on the 23rd of May 1976. Despite being into showbiz and getting married to a popular guy, Gia has been very careful about her personal details that have been made available to the public. Information about her childhood, education, and family have been kept tightly under wraps.
Gia Ruiz met her husband Danny McBride before he became the popular and celebrated actor that he is today. McBride is a writer, actor, comedian, director and a filmmaker who struck gold when he met Ruiz. Despite the many successes he has had in his career, his family is very important to him and he literally won’t stop gushing about his wife and kids.
Although Gia isn’t the type to put herself out there, she does show up beside her husband at the several important occasions that he attends. Before they got married, Gia worked alongside her husband in the different film projects he has been involved in. Unlike her husband who takes the lead role in acting and screenwriting, Gia prefers to work behind the camera. She is credited as the art director in The Foot Fist Way (2006) and as an art department assistant in her husband’s HBO hit TV series Eastbound & Down (2009 – 2010).
The couple tied the knot on the 9th of October 2019 and have since welcomed a son (Declan George born 26th of September 2011) and a daughter (Ava) in 2015.
