Harrison Ford recently attended the SAG Awards with his wife, Calista Flockhart, on March 1, at Shrine Auditorium and Expo Hall in Los Angeles, California, where he was honoured with a lifetime achievement award for his six-decade-long career in the fraternity. Receiving a standing ovation, Ford joked that it felt strange to get a lifetime award while calling himself a “working actor”. He also thanked his wife for her unwavering support, highlighting their strong bond.
According to reports by Business Insider, Harrison Ford has been married three times. He first tied the knot with Mary Marquardt in 1964, with whom he shares two sons. They divorced in 1979. His second marriage was to screenwriter Melissa Mathison in 1983, ending in 2000. Ford met Calista Flockhart in 2002 at the Golden Globe Awards, and they began dating soon after. The couple eventually married in 2010 in Santa Fe, New Mexico. Calista’s son, Liam, whom she had adopted before meeting Ford, was later formally adopted by the actor.
