Helmut Huber is a businessman and entertainment producer who was born on October 10, 1937. He is most known around the world for being married to the famous <a href="/biography/susan-lucci">soap opera actress</a> <a href="/biography/susan-lucci">Susan Lucci</a>. Helmut and <a href="/biography/susan-lucci">Susan</a> got married on September 13, 1969. <a href="/biography/susan-lucci">Susan</a> is arguably the most well recognized <a href="/biography/susan-lucci">actress</a> in the history of the soap opera television industry. She was a household name throughout her long and successful career. Being <a href="/biography/susan-lucci">Susan</a>’s spouse gave Helmut some recognition that he would have otherwise not have without. The couple gave birth to two children, <a href="/biography/liza-huber">Liza</a> and Andreas.

Their <a href="/biography/liza-huber">daughter</a>, <a href="/biography/liza-huber">Liza Huber</a> was born on February 22, 1975. <a href="/biography/susan-lucci">Susan</a> and Helmut waited longer than most married couples to have their first child. Usually, a married couple will decided to have a baby soon after they get married. <a href="/biography/susan-lucci">Susan</a> and Helmut likely decided to wait almost six years because of <a href="/biography/susan-lucci">Susan</a>’s busy soap opera acting schedule. Married couples have to put their priorities on hold when they have demanding careers. <a href="/biography/liza-huber">Liza</a> also became a famous celebrity and soap opera actress like her mother. She does not confine herself to the acting space though. <a href="/biography/liza-huber">Liza</a> branched out to also become an author and entrepreneur.  <a href="/biography/liza-huber">Liza</a> became the C.E.O of Sage Spoonfuls which is a company that makes homemade baby food products. Becoming an executive is a big accomplishment for a woman because of the discrimination and inequality that they face in the business world. Reaching that position made <a href="/biography/susan-lucci">Susan</a> proud of her ambitious daughter.

Helmut and <a href="/biography/susan-lucci">Susan</a> are the proud grandparents of four grandchildren All four of the grandsons are the children of their daughter, <a href="/biography/liza-huber">Liza</a>. <a href="/biography/liza-huber">Liza</a>’s first child Royce Alexander was born on December 23, 2006, her second son Brendan was born on August 16, 2008, her third son Hayden Victoria was born on March 23, 2011 and her fourth son, Mason Alexander was born on February 6, 2013.

Helmut and <a href="/biography/susan-lucci">Susan</a>’s son, Andreas also found personal success but it was not in the same area as his family members. Instead of going into business like his father or going into entertainment like his sister and mother, Andreas entered the sports scene by becoming a pro golfer.

Helmut has enjoyed a wonderful marriage and has excellent chemistry with wife, <a href="/biography/susan-lucci">Susan</a>. There have never been any reports of the couple being close to a divorce. In his spare time, Helmut likes to play golf and is also fond of skiing. Golfing and skiing are sports that are usually reserved for the rich to participate in. His son, Andreas likely chose to pursue a sports career in golf after growing up on the golf courses with his father.

Career

Helmut Huber studied medicine and started out his career as trained physician. Initially, Helmut’s passion was to help people in medical need but his life would make big turn. He left the medical field and started his career as an entertainment producer and businessman. He has produced many successful projects including the made for TV movies ‘Seduced and Betrayed’ and ‘Blood on Her Hands’. The movies he produces are in the style of many movies that could be found airing on the Lifetime Network. The storylines usually involve a woman getting revenge against her oppressors. Helmut also managed the acting career of his wife, <a href="/biography/susan-lucci">Susan Lucci</a>.

Helmut has an impressive estimated net worth of $20 million dollars and his wife has an estimated net worth of $45 million dollars. An average man might be intimidated by a wife that makes more money than him but Helmut does not suffer from that insecurity. He knows how big his wife is, she can be called the <a href="/biography/michael-jordan">Michael Jordan</a> of soap opera for how much she has accomplished.

Battle with Disease

In support of her loving husband, <a href="/biography/susan-lucci">Susan</a> stepped up to become the ambassador for the Facing AFib program.
