Their third son, Charles, was born on July 11, 2003, and their fourth child, Finley, was born three years later. Chris and Caroline welcomed their youngest child, Maeve Frances, in 2007.

CHRIS’ EXPERIENCE AS A FATHER

According to RedBook magazine, Chris is a devoted husband to his wife of 22 years and a loving father to his kids. He always makes sure that he spends time with his family amid his busy schedule.

Being married to the same woman for 22 years is not something you always see in Hollywood. It is pretty evident that Chris loves his family more than anything and nothing can come between them.

JUGGLING CAREER AND PARENTHOOD

Chris is a former teen heartthrob who entered Hollywood with sensational roles including Robin in “Batman Forever”, “Batman and Robin”, and “Scent of a Woman”. His role in the movie “Scent of a Woman” earned him a Golden Globe Nomination.

Being a busy man does not stop the actor from spending time with his kids. However, he cannot attend their weekend sporting events like he used to.

The actor shared how he knew he couldn’t adopt the Hollywood playboy style and traditional family life when he got into the business. He said he grew up in a traditional family life setting, which is the reason why he took the same path.

NCIS: LA is currently in its 10th season and averages a total of 10.1 million viewers. CBS has renewed the show for 2019-1010.

No matter how busy his life gets, we’re sure that Chris can still juggle his career and family life like a pro.
