Michael J. Fox’s Heartfelt Tribute to Tracy Pollan on Her 63rd Birthday

On her 63rd birthday, Michael J. Fox paid a touching tribute to his wife, Tracy Pollan. Fox, known for his bravery in battling Parkinson’s disease while raising millions for research, has had Pollan by his side through thick and thin since their marriage in 1988.

To mark this special occasion, Fox took to Instagram and shared a heartfelt post. The post included a photo album with cherished moments of the couple, pictures of Pollan on the Oscars red carpet, and snapshots of their beautiful family of six.

In his tribute, Fox described Pollan as a woman who showers her loved ones with affection and shows them how she truly feels. He referred to her as his “forever Summer girl,” “my love,” “my best friend,” and “the most beautiful amazing mom to our four stupendous kids.” The post ended with a simple yet powerful declaration of love – “Love, love, love you.”

Pollan responded to her husband’s post with a message of her own, expressing her love for him. The couple’s genuine bond and love for each other stood out, as many famous personalities, including Julianne Moore, Jennifer Grey, Katie Couric, and Julianna Margulies, also wished Pollan a happy birthday.

Fox and Pollan’s love story began long before their marriage. They first crossed paths on the set of Family Ties, where Pollan played Alex P. Keaton’s fiancée. Their paths crossed again while working on the movie Bright Lights, Big City, and a romance flourished. They tied the knot on July 16, 1988, and together they have four children – son Sam and identical twin daughters Aquinnah and Schuyler, and daughter Esmé.

However, a few years into their marriage, Fox received a devastating diagnosis of Parkinson’s disease in 1991. Reflecting on that moment, Fox recalled the fear and shock he experienced. He initially thought a twitch in his pinkie was a result of an injury but was then informed by the doctor about his condition.

Throughout his journey with Parkinson’s, Fox credits his wife’s unwavering love and support for helping him navigate the toughest days and accept his condition. Pollan’s strength and resilience were evident, with Fox highlighting that she didn’t hesitate or falter when they received the diagnosis.

The couple has now been married for 34 years, and their love for each other continues to grow, with their support for one another remaining unwavering. They listen to each other, are present when needed, and give each other space when necessary.

Tracy Pollan is the pillar of her family, providing them with everything they need to thrive. Michael J. Fox described her as the source of all their family’s goodness – a testament to her love and dedication.

As we celebrate Tracy Pollan’s birthday, we honor her and Michael J. Fox’s extraordinary marriage, which serves as an inspiration to us all. Happy birthday, Tracy, and thank you for sharing your beautiful love story with the world!
