In addition to being a revered Hollywood legend from Back to the Future and Family Ties, Michael J. Fox is a devoted family man.

With heavy hearts, Fox’s four children revealed some upsetting news today that has fans and loved ones extremely worried.

After more than 30 years of marriage to Tracy Pollan, Fox is a proud father to Sam Michael Fox, Aquinnah Kathleen Fox, Schuyler Frances Fox, and Esmé Annabelle Fox.

Fox, who is well-known for having a strong devotion to his family, has always made it a point to be there and active in the lives of his kids, even though he has been battling Parkinson’s disease since 1991.

In a lighthearted Reader’s Digest interview, Fox noted that sometimes he feels like he has five kids instead of four, emphasizing the happy and chaotic aspects of their family life. His style of parenting places a strong emphasis on the value of always being there for his kids and never putting off spending time with them.

Bearing a remarkable likeness to his father, Fox’s eldest son Sam was born in 1989 and has pursued a career in entertainment. Sam has contributed to a number of projects, including Still: A Michael J. Fox Movie, the documentary directed by his father.

Aquinnah and Schuyler, the twins, have had illustrious academic and professional careers. Aquinnah, a graduate of Duke University, is currently employed at Annapurna Pictures, and Schuyler,

a Harvard and Pomona College graduate, works as an assistant producer in Massachusetts. Born in 2001, Esmé is the youngest of the family. She is a student at Duke University and occasionally appears on her father’s Instagram.

Fox has always found solace in his family. He frequently shares touching messages about his kids on social media, expressing his deep love and delight in them. He lauded his kids on Mother’s Day, calling them “amazing, compassionate, independent, sensitive, intelligent, and adventurous individuals.”

With the death of Michael Fox’s mother, Phyllis Fox, in 2022, the Fox family suffered a great loss that strengthened their bond. Fox has dedicated his life to advancing Parkinson’s research, raising more than $2 billion through his foundation, despite the obstacles presented by his condition.

Fans and the community have responded to his children’s latest statement with concern and support. The devastating news’s specifics have not yet been made public, but it highlights the Fox family’s resilience and cohesion through this trying time.

The legacy of Michael J. Fox is one of tenacity, devotion, and love. Millions of people are still inspired by his unwavering battle against Parkinson’s illness and his unwavering dedication to his family. The steadfast support for Michael and his family is still there as they go through this difficult time.
