He has two children, Jack and Hannah, with fellow actor Martha Burns whom he married in 1987. He also has a Golden Retriever called Chester. He is internationally best known for his lead role as Constable Benton Fraser in the television series Due South. During its final season, Gross acted as executive producer in addition to starring, wrote the season three opener and finale, the two part series finale and wrote and sang for the show, some of which can be found on the two Due South soundtracks.
Paul Gross is the eldest of two brothers. He was an Army brat; his father, Bob Gross, was a Tank Commander in the Canadian Army. As a consequence Paul and his family moved around a lot: he has lived in Canada, the U.S, England and Germany. Paul was introduced to acting in his early teens, while the Gross family was in Washington. He performed in stage plays such as Canterbury Tales and Faustus. From the age of 14 he appeared in television commercials, which enabled him to pay for his degree in Drama at the University of Alberta in Edmonton.
