If you've been watching "The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel" and feeling like you recognize Joel Maisel's mother, Shirley Maisel — particularly her voice — you're not alone. Caroline Aaron, who plays the meddling yet charming Shirley, voiced the talk radio character Dr. Marcia Fieldstone in the classic 1993 rom-com "Sleepless in Seattle," starring Meg Ryan and Tom Hanks.
Aaron's notable onscreen credits include "The Young and the Restless," "Curb Your Enthusiasm," "Episodes," and one episode of her "Maisel" co-star Tony Shalhoub's show, "Monk." Offscreen, Aaron has been married to James Foreman for more than four decades. They are parents to two kids. When their son Benjamin was married in 2018 (per The New York Times), James was working as a residential sales broker in Manhattan and an estates agent in California.
When asked by Page Six about the trick to multi-decade marital happiness, Aaron said bumps in the road are inevitable. Just keep them from being intentional, her mother suggested. "As simplistic and icky and Hallmark-y as that sounds, I think kindness is the only thing you can go with to make it all the way," she said. "It's a challenge to share your life with somebody, and I don't think any of us really know how to do it. I mean, nobody teaches you how to do that."
