Since departing from her role as Agent Kate Todd in NCIS, Sasha Alexander has continued to showcase her versatility as an actress through various shows and films. Kate Todd’s character played a pivotal role in the NCIS team until her shocking exit in the second season, where she met a tragic end after being 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.
Post-NCIS, Sasha Alexander has embraced 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 memorable roles came as Maura Isles in the series “Rizzoli & Isles,” where she starred for six years. Additionally, she portrayed Helene Runyon in the SAG Award-winning series “Shameless.”
In recent endeavors, Sasha lent her voice to 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 exchanged vows 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 are proud parents to two children, a daughter named Lucia Sofia Ponti and a son named Leonardo Fortunato Ponti.
In May, the former NCIS star marked her 50th birthday with loved ones in Paris.
