A well-known Hollywood star faced a terrifying secret while his wife was expecting their first child. Diagnosed with a brain tumor, he kept this news to himself, fearing he might die and leave his family behind. Today, he is happily married to his wife of 24 years and is a proud father of three children.
Their journey began in 1998 on the streets of Los Angeles, where the actor knew he had found the woman he would marry. Despite having little, he won her heart with his charm and wit. Their story includes his health battle and how their experiences shaped their family life.
The Couple’s Love Story
This talented Hollywood star is well-known in the entertainment industry and has built an illustrious career. Aside from his esteemed professional life, he is a doting father and husband.
He has been married for 24 years, but their relationship spans back to 1998 when they first met on the streets of Los Angeles. The film star had been taking a stroll with a friend when he saw his future wife.
He recalls instantly knowing that he would someday make the woman his wife upon first glance of her. However, the actor also admits that courting her was not without its challenges.
Of the reason why trying to impress her was challenging, the actor explained, “All I had was my decency, wit, and charm — I didn’t have anything. When I met her, she was like, ‘You don’t have a driver’s license, you don’t have a credit card. What’s wrong with you, dude? I can’t be with you!'”
On top of all that, his living situation could have been better as he resided in a converted garage. However, the lady didn’t allow herself to be fussed about the material things too much.
She still took a chance on him and believed in his acting skills, which she already knew would garner him incredible success without even having seen him perform. Since then, the lovebirds have only grown stronger and more in love, with the actor frequently and proudly professing his love for his wife.
Be it for Valentine’s Day or birthdays, he posts of her on various occasions, like when she turned 51 last year. “So happy we found each other and held on for dear life through everything that came and has left,” he expressed.
During the course of their enduring and beautiful relationship, the couple has welcomed three kids: Keen, Bella Noche, and Odette. They raised their children in a large farmhouse for some time before moving back to New York.
