The couple first met in 1985 on set of the beloved sitcom Family Ties. Their connection was initially platonic, with Pollan in a long-term relationship with Footloose star Kevin Bacon and Fox in a relationship with Dirty Dancing’s Jennifer Grey.
Although Pollan and Fox were cast as each other’s love interests throughout the show, it was not until the two young actors reunited on the set of Bright Lights, Big City that their romance began to blossom.
The film debuted in cinemas in April 1988, with the couple tying the knot three months later. Less than a year after their nuptials, Pollan and Fox welcomed their first child Sam in May 1989, followed by their twin daughters Aquinnah and Schuyler in 1995, and daughter Esme in 2001.

“I think we really listen to each other. We are there for each other when we need each other, and then we also give each other space when that’s needed,” Pollan added.
Fox has also credited Pollan for her unwavering support throughout his journey with Parkinson’s disease, telling Today, “We didn’t know what to expect. One of the things I’ll always love Tracy for is that at that moment [of sharing his diagnosis], she didn’t blink.”
“She’s there in the front lines with me every single day. She never pretends to know as much as I know and the other thing Tracy does is, if there’s something funny, let’s get to the funny. We’ll deal with the tragic later.”
Here’s to another 35 years.
