Actually, she’s given up acting last I heard. She’s married to an English Lord IIRC who gave up his seat or something. Not quite sure what her title is, but she’s apparently more into being mom, than acting.

Married to an English Lord..uh..nope..she's been married to Christopher Guest forever....He's fascinating in his own right and here's the connection...(from IMDB:)

Guest became the 5th Baron Haden-Guest, of Saling in the County of Essex, when his father died in 1996.

Brother of actor Nicholas Guest, who is heir presumptive to the family title. (as Christopher's children are adopted, they cannot inherit the barony.)

Half-brother of journalist Anthony Haden-Guest, the bibulous English socialite and journalist satirized by 'Tom Wolfe' in The Bonfire of the Vanities (1990).

Has two adopted children, Annie (December 1986) and Thomas (March 1996). Under the terms of the letters patent that created the Barony of Haden-Guest, they cannot inherit the title, but they can use the courtesy title of the Honourable before their first names.

His idol growing up was comedian Peter Sellers.

When a publicity photo of Guest and his co-stars from This Is Spinal Tap (1984) ran in Rolling Stone magazine, Jamie Lee Curtis saw the picture, fell in love and gave her phone number to Guest's agent. They dated and eventually married.

According to imdb.com, she has a movie that’s in post-production right now (”Beverly Hills Chihuahua”).

Huh? I thought that she was married to Christopher Guest, formerly of SNL, Spinal Tap, and A Mighty Wind.

I don't know if she's still acting or not.
