9-1-1 lead Angela Bassett is married to her husband and fellow actor Courtney B. Vance (Law & Order, Scandal, Revenge, The People v. O. J. Simpson: American Crime Story). The pair got married on October 12, 1997, and had fraternal twins, Bronwyn Golden Vance and Slater Josiah Vance, in January 2006, via surrogate.
When asked if her kids (now 16 years old) will follow in her acting footsteps, she responded, “They want to follow the success, but whether it be acting, I don’t get any clues to that right now,” Bassett told People in January 2023. “It’s a little music, a little sports. But whatever they want to do, I support them.”
