Ed Bye Wife
He is married to his wife Ruby Wax since May 16, 1988. They began dating in 1987 and got married the following year. Ruby Wax is an American-British actress, comedian, writer, mental health campaigner, and lecturer. The couple has three children and has been married for 33 years and has a rather “unconventional” partnership.
In August 2021 Wax opened up about her “unconventional” partnership with Bye. She reckons the unconventional nature of their relationship is what keeps it fresh. Ruby said: “I have my friends, he has his friends. I don’t assume we have the same tastes. It’s understood we both have different careers. We’re together but we have different tastes and jobs — and that’s OK. We don’t step on each other’s toes and I don’t really see myself as Mrs. Bye. My name is what my name is. I see myself as an individual. But that’s OK. I’ve got three kids and they don’t mind.”
Ruby, who has written six books, and Ed do not need to be joined at the hip to be happy. She said: “I write, he directs — and I never go, ‘Oh, how come you’re not going with me to write?’ I don’t know why our relationship is unconventional but it’s not conservative. If my friends ask me to dinner, I don’t necessarily have to bring him because they’re my friends. We’re not addicted to each other’s company or demand that we’re always there. I wouldn’t have written these books if I’d have had somebody on my back.”
