Actor John Ritter, who died suddenly Friday, married actress Amy Yasbeck, a Blue Ash native, in Wilmington, Ohio, in 1999. They met in 1989 while fliming the movie "Problem Child."

Yasbeck was a huge Ritter fan - she claimed to have had his Three's Company lunchbox.

They married at the Murphy Theater in Wilmington, Ohio. Yasbeck is related to Charles Murphy, who built the theater in 1918.

The couple had a daughter, Stella, who turned 5 Thursday.
