As Henry Winkler approaches his 79th birthday on October 30, 2024, he reflects on his life’s greatest joys. The renowned actor, best known for his iconic role in “Happy Days,” has built a loving family and cherishes his time as a grandfather.
Henry’s marriage to Stacey Weitzman in 1978 laid the foundation for a devoted family life. Together, they raised three children: Max, Zoe, and Jed, Stacey’s son from a previous marriage. After 46 years, their family has grown to include six beautiful grandchildren, with another on the way.
India, Ace, Lulu, Jules, Gus, and Francis Joan bring immense happiness to Henry’s life. He proudly acknowledges that each grandchild is unique and requires a personalized approach. As a grandfather, Henry has established simple yet meaningful house rules to maintain peace and respect.
“No yelling or fighting while the youngest is asleep,” he emphasizes. “They’re responsible for keeping order among their friends, and regardless of age, they must clear their dishes.” These values promote responsibility and harmony within the family.
Henry’s grandchildren are a constant source of inspiration. Zoe’s three freckled red-haired sons, Francis’s playful nature, and Jed’s daughters’ strong bond with their grandfather all contribute to the family’s vibrant dynamic.
To stay connected, Henry enthusiastically embraces technology, creating dance videos on TikTok with his grandkids and writing lighthearted songs for Francis. These moments bring immense joy, transcending generations and forging unforgettable memories.
As Henry balances his successful career with personal happiness, it’s clear that being a grandfather brings him tremendous fulfillment. Through laughter, music, and cherished time with his family, Henry Winkler’s legacy extends far beyond his Hollywood accomplishments.
