Parents
Holden Fletcher Fraser’s parents first encountered each other at Winona Ryder’s house during the 4th of July celebration in 1993.
Winona had organized a barbecue for them, and following their meeting they both landed parts in George of the Jungle in 1998. Brendan played the lead role, George, and Afton was Ursula’s buddy.
On the 27th of September 1998, the two lovebirds tied the knot. Together they had three children, including Holden Fletcher Fraser.
After close to a decade as a married couple, they declared they would be separating, but still remain friends and take care of their children together.
Even though Brendan Fraser and Afton Smith had been said to be getting along well despite their divorce, court proceedings suggested something different.
As part of the settlement, Fraser had to pay Afton Smith $50,000 in alimony for the next ten years or until she remarried. Additionally, he was obligated to pay $25,000 per year in child support.
In 2011, Fraser returned to court to challenge the alimony, claiming he no longer had enough money to pay the required amount.
Afton Smith, however, alleged that he had concealed the amount of the contracts he received for the films Extraordinary Measures and Furry Vengeance, which totaled $9 million.
Ultimately, the court dismissed both Fraser’s plea to decrease the alimony and Afton’s claim of deception. Despite their legal dispute, both Afton Smith and Brendan Fraser are devoted to their sons.
