Gina Torres wants to focus on family life
Los Angeles, Jan 21 (IANS) Actress Gina Torres says she left hit show “Suits” to tend to her personal life.

After years of travelling between the show’s Toronto set and Los Angeles, where she lives with her husband and actor Laurence Fishburne, and their daughter, the actress was ready for a change.
She said: “My personal life needed to be tended to.”
