Who Are Leland Francis Fraser’s Parents?
Brendan Fraser and Afton Smith are Leland Francis Fraser’s parents. The two met on the 4th of July 1993 at a barbecue at Winona Ryder’s house. They got married on the 27th of September, 1998.
Unfortunately, the couple divorced in 2009. In 2007, they sold their home in Beverly Hills, California for $3 million. During the divorce proceedings, the court ordered Brendan to pay a monthly alimony payment of $50,000 for ten years or until Smith remarried, whichever came first.
He was also asked to pay monthly child support of $25,000. In 2011, he appealed to the court for a reduction in the alimony payments, but the court refused the request in 2014.
Since their divorce, both parents have successfully co-parented their children.
Afton Smith, born on the 3rd of December, 1967, was a former actress and has appeared in movies like Reality Bites (1994), Fried Green Tomatoes (1991), and Brendan Fraser’s movie George of the Jungle (1997).
She’s now a writer and author and is into real estate.
Brendan Fraser is an award-winning American-Canadian actor, born on the 3rd of December, 1968. He started his career in 1990 and had his breakthrough role with the comedy “Encino Man” and the drama ‘School Ties,” in 1992.
He became more famous with the comedies “With Honors” (1994) and “George of the Jungle” (1997).
Brendan Fraser has acted in many other films and dramas. Between the late 2000s and mid-2010s, his film work slowed down due to health and personal challenges and poor box office performance.
In 2018, he mentioned that the stunts he performed in his action- and comedy roles took a toll on his health, leading him to undergo a series of surgeries for seven years. Some surgeries he underwent were a laminectomy, vocal cord surgery, and partial knee replacement.
After some years of struggling through challenges, Brendan revived his film career with roles in “No Sudden Move’ (2021) and “The Whale” (2022).
He won the Academy Award for Best Actor for his role as an obese man in “The Whale”- the first Canadian to win it. Brendan also won the Critics Choice Award for Best Actor and the Screen Guild’s Award for Outstanding Performance by a Male for “The Whale” in 2023.
