From her first marriage, Wen did not bear any children. The couple hardly spilled any beans about their married life. Maybe because of Wen not being famous as of now.
Second Attempt in Finding Love
Two years later on June 16, 1995, Wen married for the second time with Eric Michael Zee. During her time after the divorce, she might be dating her current husband but nothing of that sort is revealed. Even the duo kept their big day under the wraps as no media barged in at her wedding.
The couple share two kids- daughter Michaela Kaitlin born on November 21, 2000, and son Cooper Dominic Zee born on October 12, 2005. Michaela grew up to be a voice actress like her mother and furthermore voiced Princess Jun for the Disney animated series Sofia the First.

My husband Eric is the consummate dad, and because I work so much, he’s more or less the stay-at-home dad. He is able to work out of the house.
To this day, Wen and Eric remain each other's special ones. Their long-lived relationship has probably made people envious.
