<\/p>\nDespite his long-running role on NCIS, the beloved actor will always prioritize his family, including his wife, Pam Dawber, and his two children, Sean Harmon and Ty Harmon, over his Hollywood career.<\/p>\n
Mark and Pam have been married since the 1980s. The Summer School alum was in the heyday of his career at the time, having starred on St. Elsewhere and Moonlighting, while Pam was a successful actor on Mork & Mindy. According to People, the two began dating after being introduced by a mutual acquaintance.<\/p>\n
Despite the fact that both Mark and Pam were enormous stars in the entertainment business, they worked hard to keep their romance out of the spotlight.<\/p>\n
\u201cWe\u2019re not trying to keep something secret, but if you don\u2019t want it totally exploited by the press, you have to,\u201d the My Sister Sam actress told the publication just before they married.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Hollywood hottie and his starring lady wedded in a private wedding ceremony on March 21, 1987. When their first son, Sean, was born the following year, they began their family. In 1992, they welcomed their second child, Ty.<\/p>\n
Mark juggled his Hollywood career throughout his children\u2019s childhoods, starring in blockbuster shows and films such as Dillinger, Reasonable Doubts, Harts of the West, and Wyatt Earp. Pam, on the other hand, gave up her career to raise the children.<\/p>\n
\u201cI had children, and it was like, \u2018I\u2019m not going to chase this fame thing,’\u201d she told Entertainment Tonight in 2016. \u201cI desired to drive my children to school.\u201d I wanted to attend their birthday parties and bring cupcakes and donuts. And I was delighted to do it.\u201d<\/p>\n
While Mark remained a fixture in the media, he never let his celebrity interfere with his life as a father. Because the Freaky Friday actor is unfazed by showbiz\u2019s glitz and glamour, he has no qualms about maintaining a modest profile.<\/p>\n
\u201cIt\u2019s not even a choice,\u201d Mark explained to TV Insider in November 2017. \u201cIt\u2019s part of who we are.\u201d We remain at home. A lot. I\u2019m not a fan of Twitter or Facebook. Our sons aren\u2019t interested either. Pam and I have both made a life in this industry, and there\u2019s still a part of it that\u2019s simply not natural.\u201d<\/p>\n

Sean Harmon<\/p>\n
On April 25, 1988, Mark\u2019s first child was born. The Chicago Hope actor and his wife Pam kept their son out of the spotlight when he was younger. Despite his parents\u2019 celebrity, Mark and Pam\u2019s eldest child has followed in their footsteps.<\/p>\n
Sean has appeared in CSI: New York, NCIS: Los Angeles, Major Cr1mes, Hold On, and NCIS opposite Mark. According to IMDb, Sean will appear in the upcoming 2021 TV film Thicker. He also directed one film, Catholic Schoolgirl Chainsaw Showdown.<\/p>\n
Sean, in addition to acting and directing, is a stuntman who has worked on numerous films such as Alone, The Dead Man, The Sweet Taste of Redemption, Dumb and Dumber To, and American Reunion.<\/p>\n
On June 25, 1992, the couple\u2019s second son was born. Ty, like his older brother, has pursued a career in Hollywood. The gorgeous young man, on the other hand, is a screenwriter. He co-wrote the 2012 picture Catholic Schoolgirl Chainsaw Showdown with his filmmaker brother, according to IMDb.<\/p>\n
Ty has done a wonderful job of staying out of the public eye in addition to paving a career in the spotlight. During an interview with ET in 2016, the Stay Tuned actress discussed their resolve to keep their family life private.<\/p>\n
\u201cNotice you don\u2019t see us in the magazines,\u201d she went on to say. \u201cThat\u2019s real life when you\u2019re married. And to go plaster your kids\u2026 I apologize. That does not sit well with me.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
