Who is Brendan Frasers ex-wife Afton Smith?
THE Mummy star Brendan Fraser has not slowed down. Fraser, 52, has had a successful career since his debut in 1991. 3 Brendan Fraser and ex-wife Afton Smith dated for four years before getting married. From 1998-2008, Fraser was married to actress, Afton Smith, 52, after four years of dating. Afton's career has not been as big as Fraser's. She started acting back in 1987 when she starred in the movie Less Than Zero but her last acting credit was in 1997's George of the Jungle, which also starred Fraser. The couple met through Winona Ryder at a Fourth of July barbecue in 1993. The former couple even shares the same birthday, December 3. Since her acting days ended, Afton has published three books, her first in 2004 called Hollywood Picks the Classics: A Guide for the Beginner and the Aficionado, which serves as a guide to the best all-time classic movies from 1930-1960. Her second book came almost a decade later in 2011, in collaboration with her mother Miriam Smith, and Margo Smithwick. Together they published a book for children called Point to Happy: For Children on the Autism Spectrum. More recently in 2018 her third book was published titled, The Tiger: Class of January 1922. Afton has three children, Griffin Arthur, 18, Holden Fletcher, 16, and Leland Francis, 15, all with ex-husband Fraser. After their divorce, they shared equal custody of the children; however, the children all ended up living with Afton in Greenwich, Connecticut. Their son Griffin is autistic and part of the reason why Afton advocates to raise awareness for the disease. "We made this book for Griffin," Afton said after publishing her second book. The Fraser children tend to keep their teenage lives out of the media as much as they can. Fraser started his acting career in 1991 when he starred in the TV Movie Child of Darkness, Child of Light. From there he went on to star in multiple movies and guest star in TV shows. In 1997, he was cast as George in George of the Jungle. In 1999, he then went on to act in The Mummy franchise playing Rick O'Connell in The Mummy, The Mummy Returns and the 2004 video short Revenge of the Mummy: The Ride. more in celebrity news MULTIMILLIONAIRE What Kylie Jenner's ex-friend is valued at after Khloe Kardashian scandal FILM PREP Brendan Fraser reveals body transformation ahead of playing 600lb recluse in film TOUGH TIMES Jeremy Jackson's ex Loni Willison's transformation from model to being homeless TRAGIC LOSS Dawson's Creek writer Heidi Ferrer 'dead by suicide at 50 after Covid battle' 'NEW ENERGY!'
