Jessica Parker Kennedy is a Canadian actress. She is known for her roles on the series Kaya, Smallville, Valemont, The Secret Circle, Black Sails, The Flash, and Colony, and in the films Gemini, Cam, Deep Murder, and See for Me.
Jessica was born to a black father and a white, Ashkenazi Jewish mother. She was raised Jewish. Jessica is married to Israeli-American actor Ronen Rubinstein.
On her Jewish wedding ceremony, Jessica has stated:
I was raised with religious beliefs and Ronen, who was born in Israel, wasn’t but his Jewish DNA is much higher than mine so culturally it was super important to us. Our rabbi was also my rabbi when I was a teenager. I always said: ‘One day when I get married, I hope Rabbi Howard will be my rabbi.’ He lives in America now so I called him and asked him.
