Ken Jeong and his wife Tran Ho are celebrating a major milestone.
The actor/comedian, 55, and Ho have officially been married for 20 years.
Jeong marked the special anniversary with a throwback Instagram photo of him and Ho that appears to date back to their September 2004 wedding.
“Twenty years down, forever to go. You still complete me, Ho. ❤️,” he captioned the sweet pic.
Jeong and Ho met at a singles mixer at a Los Angeles hospital where they both worked as doctors and long before he became a famous actor.
During a 2015 appearance on Slate’s Death, Sex & Money podcast, The Masked Singer judge reflected on seeing Ho for the first time.
“We both realized — oh my God, this is amazing,” he recalled. “She made me laugh. She was really the first person I ever met that made me laugh so hard. She’s just so funny. We really bonded by our love of comedy. You don’t meet a lot of people in medicine, much less date them, who like that, but we had that in common.”

He’s always credited his wife for supporting his acting career after he appeared in 2007’s Knocked Up as a physician. That same year he and Ho welcomed twin daughters Alexa and Zooey.
He landed his breakout role in The Hangover in 2009 and made it clear that he had Ho’s blessing to strip down and appear naked in the comedy.
“I got her permission. I’m not stupid,” he told PEOPLE at the film’s premiere. “I ran it by her before I ran it by [director] Todd Phillips.”

“I’m very blessed to have a supportive wife,” he added. “In fact, she said this will be a feel-good movie because every guy will go home feeling good about themselves.”
He later wrote in a 2011 personal essay for HuffPost that she supported his decision to pursue acting despite her going through treatment for breast cancer and raising their young daughters.

“I was going to turn it down, but Tran encouraged me not to,” he said of his role in The Hangover. “She would not let her diagnosis change our lives or strip us from our dreams.”
He continued, “For as long as we’d known each other, she’d been my biggest champion in my efforts to pursue a career in comedy. She knew this was my chance, and again, she selflessly put herself second.”
