Marin Hinkle is a veteran Hollywood television and film actress. She first shot to fame with her iconic portrayal of Judith Harper-Melnick in Two and a Half Men. Judith was the former wife of John Cryer's Alan Harper. Alan and Judith share one son together, the 'half' in Two and a Half Men, Jake Harper, who was portrayed by Angus T. Jones.

Judith was also the first woman Alan ever slept with but their marriage was quite cold. Alan perceives Judith as a hypocrite who sucks Alan dry with her alimony and child support requirements.

She lives a rather luxurious lifestyle off of Alan's money while Alan crashes with his brother, Charlie Harper, played by none other than Charlie Sheen.

Later on in the series Judith also has a daughter named Millie Melnick. Although she is initially perceived to be Judith's other former husband Herb Malnick's child, the show hints at Alan possibly being Millie's father.

However, it is never revealed who Millie's father is. Therefore Millie's dad could end up being Herb or Alan.

In season 10, it is revealed that Judith divorced Herb after catching him cheating on her and ends up leaving their house with Milly.

Despite being in 82 episodes of the series that ran from 2003 to 2015, in the last three seasons, Marin Hinkle's Judith only had one appearance in each.

Apart from her role as Judith, Marin Hinkle is more recently known for her stint as Rose Weissman in the hit series The Marvelous Mrs. Maisel.

Weissman is the mother of the titular Miriam "Midge" Maisel portrayed by Rachel Brosnahan.
