Since departing from her role as Agent Kate Todd in NCIS, Sasha Alexander has remained actively engaged in various shows and films, showcasing her versatility as an actress. Kate Todd played a crucial role in the NCIS team until her shocking exit in the second season, where she was tragically shot in the head by double-agent Ari Haswari. The storyline took a dramatic turn when Ari’s half-sister, Ziva David, ultimately fatally shot him.
Following her time on NCIS, Sasha Alexander has been featured in a diverse range of projects, including “Lucky 13,” “Yes Man,” “Friends,” “The Ride,” “He’s Just Not That Into You,” “Mission: Impossible III,” and “FBI.”
One of her most notable roles was as Maura Isles in the series “Rizzoli & Isles,” where she starred for six years. She also portrayed Helene Runyon in the SAG Award-winning series “Shameless.”
In more recent endeavors, Sasha provided the voice for Adeline in the animated film “Deathstroke Knights and Dragons,” starred in “Dangerous Lies,” and made a guest appearance in an episode of “Law and Order.”
In her personal life, Sasha is married to Edoardo Ponti, whom she met at USC’s film school, and they tied the knot in 2007. Notably, she is the daughter-in-law of the legendary Italian actress Sophia Loren, who is Edoardo’s mother, from her marriage to Carlo Ponti.
Sasha and Edoardo share two children, a daughter named Lucia Sofia Ponti and a son named Leonardo Fortunato Ponti.
In May, the former NCIS star celebrated her 50th birthday with loved ones in Paris.
