Suzzanne Douglas's husband is fairly accomplished in his own field.
Although Suzzanne made a name for herself on the big screen, her neuro-radiologist husband, Roy Jonathan Cobb, made his name in the medical field. The couple was married in February 1989 and remained together up until her death in 2021.
Roy, a New Jersey resident, has a degree from Cornell University, and currently works as Adjunct Instructor of the Biology Department at William Paterson University.
For however much Suzzanne was a star and followed by the public, she managed to keep her private life exactly that: private. Few details are known about the specifics of her relationship with Roy aside from that they were seemingly happy together for decades.

According to her website, she is a New York City-based actress and writer. Jordan spent her time in school at New York University's Tisch School of the Arts. There, she studied at the Experimental Theatre Wing, and in the school's Classical Studio and Stonestreet Studio.
The founder of two production companies, Black Lace and Laser Beams and No Such Thing Productions, Jordan has gone on to take on roles in projects like Here Be Dragons, Janus Descending, and Primordial Deep. Clearly, her mother's influence instilled a wish for greatness in the same field, something Jordan is manifesting at a young age.
