Wait, Catherine Reitman's onscreen 'Workin' Moms' husband is in truth played by way of her real-life husband? Details on Philip Sternberg.

They say it may be lonely at the top, in particular if you're the sole showrunner of a long-running collection.

Thankfully, Workin' Moms creator and celebrity Catherine Reitman by no means needed to do it all alone, with her real-life husband enjoying her TV husband on the sequence from the start. (Can you assert couple goals? Because critically.)

So, who is Catherine's husband, and what's their tale?

Here's everything we find out about Philip Sternberg.

Who is Catherine Reitman's husband, Philip Sternberg?

According to Today, Catherine married Philip, an actor and producer, in 2008.

However, it did take some time for Philip and Catherine to grasp that tricky work/life balance, given that they changed into co-stars when Workin' Moms Season 1 premiered again in 2017.

Catherine told Today in 2022, "Look, it’s taken a lot of work and patience to create a working dynamic together where we know how to do that on set, and then turn it off and parent together at home. And I’m one of the lucky ones, I get to look across the set and my best friend, my husband, is rooting for me in each scene."

She revealed to the Streets of Toronto in 2017 how she first met Philip (who may be a producer for Workin' Moms), recounting:

"I was picking up a paycheck for my friend after an audition when I first saw Philip. I was dressed ridiculously, in short shorts, with two braids, for a role that I absolutely was wrong for and didn’t get. Philip handed me the check and there was clear electricity between us. We didn’t exchange numbers. We just smiled and knew that something was happening."

Philip made it very transparent to Catherine when they ran into each other once more three months after their first meet-cute that she used to be "never walking out of his life again."

Do Catherine Reitman and husband Philip Sternberg have children?

Catherine and Philip have two sons together, Jackson and Liam Sternberg. It was Catherine's personal motherhood adventure that inspired her to create Workin' Moms in the first place.

She was once candid about her experience with postpartum despair in a 2023 interview with Scary Mommy, the place she said growing the show itself helped her and different mothers feel noticed: "When you’re pregnant, everyone fills you with fear. But no one talks about the joy. And as they get older, it gets better and better."

Turns out it was Catherine's personal husband who satisfied her that they could, in truth have it all, telling her, "A family is really important to me. And I promise, no matter how our life shakes out, I will make it so that you can still have a career and don’t have to sacrifice anything."
