Who Plays Sophie’s Mom Lori on ‘How I Met Your Father’?

While we’re only a few episodes into the first season, Sophie has already talked about her fraught relationship with her mother — and it seems we’ll get to meet her sooner rather than later.

Lori, the single mother who raised Sophie, will be played by none other than Criminal Minds alum Paget Brewster, TVLine revealed.

Paget had a prominent recurring role on the crime drama show Criminal Minds, playing Emily Prentiss, the moral-driven yet caring special agent.
