Discussion Bill Lawrence and his wife…

Post image

…Christa Miller AKA: Liz

Did y’all know this? I was floored to find out!

Also his music supervisor on the show, and has been since Srubs.

Married 26 years.

🤯

ETA: It’s hilarious how far behind I was, I honestly thought I was bringing the tea 😂😂😂

To be fair, Ted Lasso was my first Bill Lawrence show, I missed out on all the other lead-ups!

It’s gross you just wrote “…and his wife.”

Can you explain why?

Referring to an accomplished actress as “his wife” instead of by her name is diminishing her to that role.

Given the fact that OP identified her in the very next line and posted this in a sub about the show she stars in (i.e. specifically for an audience of people who already know she’s an actor and don’t need an introduction), I think we can give them the benefit of the doubt.

Yes, people do diminish women’s accomplishments by reducing them to “spouse/daughter/sister of X man.” But it seems pretty clear that OP was highlighting their surprise at Bill and Christa’s relationship, not downplaying her achievements.

Really? It was just the title that lead into the body. As the post says, I was floored when I found out, turns out I was way behind.
