Michael J. Fox Steps Out With All 3 Daughters for Rare Family Outing
Michael J. Fox Shares Glimpse of Daughter Esme in Rare Photos
Where Michael J. Fox is going, he just needs his family’s love.
The Back to the Future star was not only joined by his wife Tracy Pollan for the Michael J. Fox Foundation’s A Funny Thing Happened on the Way to Cure Parkinson’s gala on Nov. 14, but also by three extra special guests.
When Fox and Pollan stepped out at the Waldorf Astoria in New York City for the fundraising event, they were accompanied by 31-year-old twins Aquinnah and Schuyler, as well as 25-year-old Esmé. The three girls each wore elegant gowns and big smiles as they posed on the event’s red carpet alongside their parents. (Fox and Pollan are also parents to 37-year-old son Sam, who was not in attendance.)
Pollan, for her part, donned a calf-length black shift dress and heels, while Fox wore a black blazer over a navy t-shirt and black slacks.
The gala featured performances from John Mayer and Brad Paisley, as well as comedy sets from Josh Johnson and Tom Papa, while actor Denis Leary helmed the night as emcee.
Fox started the Michael J. Fox Foundation in 2000, nine years after he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease. In the time since, the organization has become an important player in the fight to cure the disease—with the annual gala acting as a way to thank the many hands who make executing the mission light work.
As Pollan told People at the event, “It celebrates everybody who’s worked with us for 20-plus years. Just the huge and amazing amount of money that’s been raised that goes directly into the scientists’ pockets, and they can just do all the work that’s necessary [to finding a cure]. We really are seeing so much progress.”

The 66-year-old also shared insight into how she and her family navigate Fox’s health challenges.
“I think you just have to do it day by day,” she reflected. “You have to look at what’s in front of you, and you have to stay in the moment.”
As for Fox, the Shrinking star has been candid about how grateful he is for his family walking beside him on his health journey.
In fact, when the 65-year-old accepted the Bob Hope Humanitarian Award at the 2026 Emmys, he specifically thanked his wife and kids “for their sacrifices, for their patience, and for their love.”
