After making his acting debut on Days of Our Lives in 1991, Michael Easton starred in the longest-running soap opera series, General Hospital, for 12 years, leaving his fans and followers curious to learn more about his personal life.
Who is General Hospital alum Michael Easton’s wife, Ginevra?
Ginevra Arabia is a model, actress, wife, and mother.
She was born in Toronto, Canada, and studied Theatre Arts and Acting at York University.
Arabia previously starred in several independent films, TV shows, and commercials for brands like Nokia and Sears.
In 2003, she moved to New York City to attend the Neighborhood Playhouse School of Theatre.
That same year, she met and began dating her soap opera star husband, Michael Easton.
The duo's relationship progressed quickly, and they ended up tying the knot just a year later.
Their August 2004 nuptials even had some famous faces, including Easton's co-star, the late Kamar de los Reyes, who served as his best man.
Little is known about Ginevra, as she prefers to live her life out of the spotlight.
Her social media accounts, including her Instagram, are private, and she seems only to follow close friends and family.
She occasionally makes appearances alongside Easton at Hollywood events.
The duo famously walked the red carpet together at the 35th Annual Daytime Emmy Awards at the Kodak Theatre on June 20, 2008.
