Linda Hunt and Karen Kline

Linda Hunt has achieved trail-blazing success in her acting career, overcoming the obstacles posed by her height and teasing from her peers growing up. It’s no wonder that Hunt has found another kindred spirit in her wife, Karen Kline. The couple had been together long before Hunt’s “NCIS: Los Angeles” fame, although it’s unclear how they met.

Hunt has a great sense of humor about what attracted her to Kline. During an appearance on CBS Sunday Morning, she joked that she was “kind of struck by Linda’s corduroys.” Hunt, the first actress to win an Oscar playing a member of the opposite gender, married Kline in 2008.
