Brendan Fraser is a critically acclaimed actor who has starred in both blockbuster and classic films.

In the 1990s, he was popular and up and coming. He’s now a universally beloved Oscar winner.

After some major career setbacks, he reminds everyone how talented he is and how much he is loved.

But what about his love life?

Brendan Fraser and Afton Smith

On July 4, 1993, Brendan Fraser attended a barbecue at Winona Ryder’s house.

He was a relative newcomer to the entertainment industry, but he was fresh off his commercial success Encino Man – which has now become a cult classic.

There he met Afton Smith, a fellow actor.

Smith will continue to appear George Jungle (1997), one of Frasier’s most beloved roles partly because of his willfully uncompromising charisma.

Her role in the film was minor. It was not her role in his life.

They married and had three children

On September 27, 1998, Fraser and Smith married.

They went on to welcome three children – all sons – together.

Griffin Arthur Fraser was born in 2002.

Holden Fletcher Fraser was born in 2004.

And last but not least, Fraser and Smith welcomed Leland Francis Fraser in 2006. Yes, he’s the hottie from another world.

It didn’t last

In April 2007, Fraser and Smith sold their Beverly Hills home for $3 million.

Only later that year, Fraser’s publicist revealed they were divorcing after 10 years of marriage.

Fraser was ordered to pay Smith $50,000 a month in alimony along with $25,000 a month in child support.

In early 2011, Fraser’s career was not going well. He asked the court to reduce spousal support payments. (He did no Child support contest.)

Ultimately, the court did not side with Fraser or Smith. Overall, they have received public praise for their peaceful upbringing.

Brendan Fraser and Jane Moore

In September 2022, Fraser entered into a relationship with makeup artist Jane Moore.

The two have not publicly discussed how they met.

However, it seems a safe bet to say that they most likely met through the entertainment industry.

Moore has worked with other big-name talent.

Fraser and Moore make their red carpet debut at the 2022 Venice Film Festival.

Where are things today?

Moore was supportive of Fraser in his career.

He publicly declared his gratitude to her while accepting the Academy Award for Best Actor.

These days, Fraser is believed to still reside in Bedford, New York.

Whether you like it best for The mummy or Death Patrol or George Jungle Or, hell, his little guest’s place ScrubsFraser is a national treasure. He’s even continental, because he’s Canadian.

We are happy to see him finding happiness. We’ll be keeping an eye on his upcoming projects – including… The mummy 4.
