Melissa Suzanne George is an Australian actress best known for her role on the soap opera Home and Away. She gained attention in Australia before transitioning to a successful acting career in the United States, where she appeared in notable television series such as Friends, Grey’s Anatomy, and The Good Wife.
In 1998, Melissa met Chilean film director Claudio Dabed while in Bali. The couple began dating and married in 2000. After more than a decade together, they announced their divorce in 2011. Speaking about their separation, Melissa mentioned that she had communicated her concerns with Claudio over a five-year period before deciding to part ways. One of her primary reasons for ending the relationship was her desire to have children—a desire that Claudio, who already had a daughter from a previous marriage, reportedly did not share. Melissa maintained that her relationship with her stepdaughter remains positive and that she would always care for her.
Following her divorce, Melissa briefly dated music mogul Russell Simmons, but the relationship ended due to the challenges of maintaining a long-distance romance. According to Simmons, Melissa had written to him expressing that the relationship was no longer working and that it was best to part ways.
