Michael J. Fox, the award-winning actor, considers fatherhood his most cherished role. Married to Tracy Pollan for over 30 years, they shаrе four children. Fox humorously mentioned to Reader’s Digest that it sometimes feels likе five.
Fox emphasizes the importance of always being available for his children: “Always be available to your kids. Because if you say, ‘Give me five minutes, give me 10 minutes,’ it’ll be 15, it’ll be 20. And then when you get there, the shine will have worn off whatever it is they wanted to shаrе with you.”
Diagnosed with Parkinson’s in 1991, Fox praised his children for their empathy and resilience. His Instagram often features his close bond with them. On Mother’s Day 2022, he wrote to Pollan, “Our children are beautiful, sensitive, intelligent, empathetic, independent, compassionate, adventurous, lovely people. That’s your fault.”
Fox’s eldest son, Sam, works in entertainment, and his twins, Aquinnah and Schuyler, have careers in media and education. His youngest, Esmé, is a Duke University student. Fox continues to dedicate his life to Parkinson’s research, raising over $2 billion.
Fox News Host Leads Prayer on Air: A Surprising and Inspiring Moment
Pete Hegseth, the host of Fox News’ “Fox & Friends,” recently made a daring decision by leading a prayer during a sponsored piece that highlighted a Bible app. It was a refreshing move. Viewers have been talking about this surprise on-air demonstration of religion; some are skeptical, while others are grateful for the hosts’ openness to pause for prayer.
Known for his kind and amiable manner, Hegseth lightened the mood and put a smile on his co-hosts’ cheeks as he started the section. He laid up the background of what was going to happen with a hint of comedy. His coworkers laughed when he remarked, “We have more ‘Fox & Friends’ coming up, but you know what, this is a transition for transitions if you’ve ever had one.” Hegseth concurred with a hilarious aside, “This is very ‘Fox & Friends,’ so ready your heart,” as Rachel Campos-Duffy jokingly added.
“This is the fifth Sunday of Lent, and we’re continuing our prayer series by reading prayers from the Hallow app,” Hegseth said. “Let’s do it this morning, close your eyes, and bow your head if you would. We all need it.”
Hegseth’s co-hosts, Campos-Duffy and Will Cain, joined him in prayer with bows of respect. Hegseth led the prayer on screen, reading passages from the Hallow app. “Jesus, today we begin the holy period of Passion tide,” he prayed in a sincere manner. Please, throughout these final two weeks of Lent, enlighten us on the mystery of your submission and sacrifice and intensify our awareness of your love for us. We beg you to reveal yourself to us and enable us to experience the grace of your presence.
Hegseth ended the prayer by thanking Christ for his unselfish love demonstrated on the cross and the Hallow app for collaborating with the show during Lent. Campos-Duffy offered a sincere “Amen” to confirm the prayer.
The Fox News anchors have publicly discussed their faith on the program before. Host Kayleigh McEnany said that she thought Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson believed God was leading the way in a prior episode. Pray for him as our speaker, everyone, said co-host Ainsley Earhardt. God needs to give our nation some direction right now.
Although everyone acknowledges that people have the right to practice their faith freely, some people might have taken offense at this on-air prayer. Many others, on the other hand, thought it was a good idea and appreciated that the hosts would pause their hectic broadcast to pray for a moment.
