Theodore William King (born October 1, 1965) is an American actor, previously credited as T. W. King, best known for starring as Andy Trudeau on the hit-series Charmed during its first season.
Career
King was first known for playing Danny Roberts on the soap opera Loving and The City.
The next year he co-starred in the primetime series Charmed as detective Andy Trudeau. The first season of the series chronicled the adventurous lives of the three Halliwell sister-witches, the "Charmed Ones". King's character Andy, the sisters’ childhood friend, is an inspector who helps the sisters cover up complications of their magic's side effects, hoping to absorb their magical abilities. He was the first season's major male love interest of the leading actress, Shannen Doherty (playing Prue Halliwell), from the October 1998 pilot to the May 1999 finale, when his character sacrificed himself to save Prue and her sisters.
In 2002, King returned to soaps as Luis Alcazar on General Hospital until his character was killed off. However, he later returned to General Hospital as Luis' identical younger brother, Lorenzo Alcazar. King's first episodic appearance was on July 30 of that year. The couple welcomed their second child, daughter Ava Celeste, on October 15, 2010.
