Before Fox met Pollan, he was struggling, having just moved to the US. But then the movie star became successful and was soon famous. Fox revealed that he met Pollan while filming “Family Ties” at the height of his career:

“There’s a scene in the film where I am kind of a bit of a jerk, which I’m happy they showed. Tracy kind of steered me in the right direction. And then we got married.”

Over the years, the couple has also gone through challenging times, but their love for each other has seen them through the darkest hours.
