Law And Order Star on Keeping his Marriage Fun and Drama-Free

“This I gotta meet,” thought Meloni.

So he wandered over. And flirted. And concluded she was an eleven on a coolness scale of ten. But … she had a boyfriend.

Time passed. One afternoon, Chris was driving in the Hollywood Hills when someone called his name. It was Sherman. She was throwing a party, and she wanted him to come. He did. And once again concluded that she was “cool, funny, sexy.” But … she still had a boyfriend.

Meloni returned to New York, the city he loves best. But no actor can avoid Los Angeles and, soon enough, he was back. Again, he bumped into Sherman. That knocked him back: “You don’t bump into people in L.A.” So he left a note at her house.

The stars were, at last, aligned. “But wouldn’t you know it?” Chris recalls, with a wry smile. “Just then, three women dropped into my lap. And, you know, three in the hand are worth one in the bush. So I let Sherman slide.”
