Here’s how many kids Ken Jeong and Tran have

Ken Jeong and Tran’s relationship history explained
Ken Jeong and his wife, Tran Ho, first crossed paths when they were working as doctors at a Los Angeles hospital.
While Jeong practiced internal medicine back then, his wife specialized in family medicine. The two would occasionally bump into each other at work, but didn’t get talking until a singles mixer. Talking about their meet-cute during an earlier appearance on the Death, Sex & Money podcast, the actor noted, “I remember we had a doctors’ night out, like young doctors. Doctors in their late 20s, early 30s. We all got together for a happy hour at a bar.”
Jeong and Ho bonded over their shared love for comedy before kickstarting their romantic journey shortly afterward. The couple eventually decided to tie the knot on September 6, 2004. Over the years, Ken Jeong and his wife have supported each other through thick and thin, including Ho’s cancer diagnosis in 2008 and her subsequent path to recovery.
Furthermore, it was Ho who encouraged the Community actor to pursue a career in the entertainment industry, and she also accompanies him to movie premieres. Currently, the pair has completed more than two decades of marriage and is going steady as always.
