Meet Gina Cirone, best known for playing the wife of CSI star William Petersen.
In October 2021, the first episode of the spin-off series CSI: Vegas, featuring original CSI actor William (as Gil Grissom), was released, and fans were quickly feeling nostalgic. Naturally, the star’s attention was also on his wife, and fans were eager to learn about their relationship.
So here we will shed some light on William Petersen’s wife on Wikipedia Gina Cirone.
The Relationship Between Gina Cirone and William Petersen
Gina Cirone was first asked out on a date by the CSI star in 1995. The two reportedly went to Spiaggia for dinner that night.
Seven years later, Gina and William recreated their first date in Chicago, but this time William did something different. After dinner, William got down on one knee with a “3-carat emerald-cut diamond and platinum” engagement ring and proposed.
The couple then tied the knot the following year on June 14 at a 400-year-old church in Petrignano, Italy. That’s right, while many might have thought the CSI star would get married in Vegas, he surprised fans with a private wedding.
After the wedding, they went on their honeymoon in Europe.
As for their children, the couple welcomed twins (a boy and a girl) via surrogacy. Although the babies were born prematurely, they have since recovered and are expected to be able to go home soon.
In 2017, William shared that he was taking a break from television to focus on his twins—then six years old. “I have a relationship with CBS that is the gold standard. And when CSI ended, I decided I was going to spend as much time as I could with my two kids. I just spent time chasing them,” he said.
But the twins are not William’s first children. He has a child named Maite Petersen (born 1975) from his previous marriage to Joanne Brady from 1974 to 1981.
Did you know: William was hospitalized in August 2021 after feeling unwell on the set of CSI: Vegas. Reports later suggested that he was only taken to the hospital “as a precautionary measure” because he was exhausted from working long hours on the show’s set over the past 12 weeks.
