Early Life and Family
Mae Akins was born during her parents’ second marriages; the two played lovers in “Roseanne” for a year, as well as appearing together in other productions. Their son was born in 1993, but they didn’t marry until 2005.
Due to her parents’ age, they decided on having Mae through a surrogate. They later had another child, who they fostered when he was six years old before adopting him. Mae was raised mostly by her parents until 2011 when Roth filed for divorce, citing irreconcilable differences – the two completed their divorce settlement three years later. Despite all the popularity her parents have, Mae has managed to stay away from the spotlight, except for a few formal public appearances with her mother.
