  • Anna Romano became familiar with Ray Romano, her to-be husband, in 1982.
  • At that time, both were employed at the Williamsburg Savings Bank, New York.
  • During an interview, recalling his bachelor’s life, Ray Romano said that he decided to take the risk and ask Anna out for a cup of coffee. As the whole incident happened outside the bank, Ray felt there would be less stress on him even if she said no.
  • It is also learned that before proposing Anna, Ray had also asked two of his other female colleagues for dating, who had rejected his proposal. Ray was just 25 at that time and wasn’t very confident that Anna would say yes.
  • Love has its own uncharted territory! Anna eventually said ‘yes’, and they afterward started dating.
  • Later, the romantic couple later exchanged vows on October 11, 1987, in an extravagant wedding ceremony attended by many notable personalities in New York.
  • At present, the couple has four children – Alexandra Romano, Gregory Romano, Joseph Romano, and Matthew Romano.
  • Alexandra Romano, born in 1990, is well-known for the character of Molly. Anna’s daughter is famously known for her work in several movies, including Ice Age: Continental Drift, The Rules of Lacrosse, and the Men Who Break Them.
  • Gregory Romano, born in 1993, is a screenwriter and actor. His films include Ice Age: The Meltdown and Everybody Loves Raymond, where his fine acting skills receive a lot of praise worldwide. In “Grande Soiree Des Parodies”, a television special, he worked as a screenwriter.

  • Anna also learned golf under the guidance of Steve DiMarco, who was Ray Romano’s coach. Initially, she was reluctant and nervous. Later, she was delighted to realize how much she enjoyed the game. Now whenever the couple gets time, they are often seen playing golf.
  • You’ll be surprised to know that Anna is a breast cancer survivor. During a checkup, Anna Romano’s family physician observed an irregularity on her right breast in 2010.
  • Consequently, she had to go through mammography and a biopsy. Mammography is usually undertaken to look for breast cancer’s symptoms, while the biopsy is a close examination of an abnormal tissue of the human body.
  • Unfortunately, Ray Romano’s wife was diagnosed with stage 1 of breast cancer in 2010. It is worth mentioning that breast cancer is one of the most common invasive cancers in women.
  • As the deadly disease was detected at an early stage, chemotherapy (a treatment to kill cancer cells) cured Anna within a few years.
  • In an interview with the ‘People’ magazine way back in February 2012, Anna disclosed the news of her breast cancer in the public domain. Her husband also supported her wholeheartedly in this revelation.
  • At present, the couple is reaching out to and inspiring many patients fighting various stages of cancer.
  • The pair is also involved in several philanthropic initiatives to help cancer patients and survivors, including their collaboration with the Saban Free Clinic in Los Angeles, California, and the American-Italian Cancer Foundation in New York City.
  • Anna has also partnered with several NGOs in her city to host annual health affairs for creating awareness about breast cancer. Reportedly, she also chairs a local Breast Cancer Awareness Committee.
  • The rationale behind such partnerships is that the generous couple wants to ensure that women, who couldn’t afford the out-of-pocket medical expenses are taken care of adequately and receive proper medical treatment without taking loans from financial institutions.
