Calista Flockhart Reveals Heartfelt Truth About Loving Harrison Ford’s 22-Year Age Difference
Calista Flockhart fell deeply in love with Harrison Ford when they met in 2002, and since then, they have remained one of Hollywood’s most beloved couples. The iconic Indiana Jones actor, now 82, and the talented Ally McBeal actress, 60, first crossed paths at the Golden Globe Awards, where their romance began to blossom.
In 2003, early in their relationship, Calista expressed how wonderful it was to fall in love. She confidently stated, “I’m in love,” emphasizing that romantic love is among the most exciting and fulfilling experiences one can have, regardless of their stage in life. Reflecting on her feelings, she remarked, “I was not surprised that I was able to fall in love, and I wasn’t surprised that I did.”
As their relationship progressed, Calista and Harrison welcomed a child together, Liam, who was just a toddler when he entered Harrison’s life. Already a father of four from previous marriages, Harrison embraced fatherhood with open arms. In a 2010 interview with the New York Times, Calista praised Harrison’s parenting skills, noting, “I think he was a really good father in a lot of ways. Maybe because he was on round two or round three, he had matured and grown up, and I think evolved into being a good father.” She added, “He’s such a good father to his kids now. I love his kids, my stepkids.”
Harrison shared his own thoughts on becoming a father to Liam, recalling, “When I met Liam, he was just beginning to walk, and it just didn’t matter to me.” He humorously noted, “I had four children already, and I can’t count that well, so it didn’t make that much difference.” His commitment to fatherhood has been evident over the years, with many instances of him bonding with Liam, whether they were attending basketball games or simply enjoying quality time together.
Despite his successful career in Hollywood, Harrison is aware of how it has influenced his role as a father to his four older children—Ben, Willard, Malcolm, and Georgia, from his previous marriages to Mary Marquardt and Melissa Mathison. In a candid profile with Esquire, he reflected, “I can tell you this: If I’d been less successful, I’d probably be a better parent.” He acknowledged the lessons learned from his older children, stating, “My first child was born when I was 25. I reckon I’m a little better at it now.”
