Andrew Shue is known as an American actor and entrepreneur. He is most famous for his lead role on Melrose Place.
Andrew Eppley Shue was born on February 20, 1967, in Wilmington, DE. His father, James William Shue, was a lawyer and real estate developer who served as president of the International Food and Beverage Corporation and was involved in Republican politics, having run for the United States Congress in New Jersey unsuccessfully once. His mother was a descendent of Pilgrim leader William Brewster, and his father hailed from Pennsylvania and was of German heritage.
Shue's sister Elisabeth is an actress, and he co-starred with her in The Karate Kid in one of his first (uncredited) film appearances.
Andrew Shue's first marriage was to Jennifer Hageney, who made a living as a floral designer. Andrew and Jennifer's marriage produced three sons named Nate, Aidan, and Wyatt. His relationship with Jennifer ended in 2008 when the couple decided to get a divorce. The final day of the relationship marked the end of 14 years of marriage. The separation was tough for Andrew and Jennifer, along with their three sons.
Andrew took some to recover until he met his next wife, Amy Robach. Amy works for ABC News. Andrew and Amy met each other through their mutual friends. The two lovers got engaged in 2009. They didn't wait long to tie the knot as they got married in 2010. Amy was also coming off another relationship and in a similar situation to Andrew. Amy was married before Andrew, and she got separated from her husband in 2008, which was the same year that Andrew ended his first marriage. She has two daughters from her first marriage compared to Andrew's three sons from his first marriage.
Andrew and Amy got married on her birthday, making it extra special for the newlyweds. The wedding party involved Shue's sons, Amy's daughters, and the guest list was minimal. Even though it was the union of a big family, the couple wanted to keep things private and only allowed invitations to their closest loved ones. It was set up similar to the Brady Bunch, with multiple children coming from past marriages.
When Amy was diagnosed with breast cancer, Amy said that Andrew was very supportive and attentive to her needs. He flew back from his business trip and stayed next to her throughout the whole process. Soon after the news of breast cancer spread, there were rumors about Andrew and Amy getting separated. The media assumed that Andrew would not be able to handle the disease and would abandon Amy. The rumors were proven to be false and not an accurate representation of Andrew's morals and character.
Andre Shue is most known for his role in a show called Melrose Place. The show was trying to ride the success of another similar show called Beverly Hills, 90210. While soap operas entertained older ladies during the daytime, there wasn't a soap opera available at night to engage the younger demographic. Shows like Melrose Place tried to fill this gap with more suggestive storylines than their daytime counterparts.
On the show, Andrew fell in love with an actress named Courtney Thorne-Smith. The pair was a couple on and off the screen. In the show's storyline, she ended up with another character instead of staying with Andrew's character. Their romance was mainly fueled by feelings they had working on the show together. Once the show ended, the chemistry between them ended.
Most of Andrew's financial success has been from his networking website, Cafemom, instead of his acting career.
