Jane Lynch and the Mommy Track (Suit) - Advocate

The inside story on her battles with alcohol, becoming a TV star at 48, and how a 9-year-old changed her life forever

After decades of work in television and movies, Jane Lynch became an overnight sensation, and an Emmy and Golden Globe winner. Through all the hardships of Hollywood and her stellar achievements, Lynch admits that it’s her new roles as a mother and wife that may just give her the biggest sense of accomplishment yet. Lynch opened up to The Advocate’s Diane Anderson-Minshall about her new family, working with Charlie Sheen, and being openly gay in Hollywood.

While Lynch may be best known for her role on Glee, it was her spot on Two and a Half Men that got her into the biggest role of her life: motherhood. While at a gala for the National Center for Lesbian Rights, Lynch first met Lara Embry, a fan of Two and a Half Men. Within a year, Lynch was married with children. In between filming season 2 of Glee, Lynch became immersed in motherhood. “I became wifely,” she recalls, having run the errands while Embry worked. “I loved taking care of my girls.”

Jumping back to her Hollywood life, Lynch, whose role on Two and a Half Men brought her a different audience than her work on Glee, recognizes that costar Charlie Sheen is going through a tough time. Nevertheless, she has nothing but praise for the actor. “He’s one of the nicest guys and a true leader on that set,” she says. “He’s going through his stuff now, but there’s a really solid, wonderful person in there, and I love him very much.” [ CONTINUE READING ]
