Answer: Marina's full legal name is Marina Greggs Rudd, combining her maiden and current married surnames. Jason Rudd was her latest husband but she was still professionally known as Marina Greggs. Famous actresses keep their original names professionally. They are usually addressed publicly as "Miss" plus their professional name, regardless of marital status.
