But here’s something fascinating about the real Jeff Goldblum. Turns out, therapy played a big role in his decision to become a father later in life. Who knew? Not me, but hey, that's why we’re here—to learn the juicy details, right?

Jeff Goldblum Opens Up About Therapy and Fatherhood

Now, here's the scoop: At 66 years young, Jeff Goldblum recently sat down with Jonathan Ross on his UK talk show, The Jonathan Ross Show. During the chat, Jeff revealed that it was therapy that ultimately helped him decide to become a dad in his sixties. For years, Jeff had been pretty clear about not wanting kids. He even admitted to being "too busy" and "self-involved" for the responsibility. But guess what? That all changed when his wife, Emilie Livingston—who’s a spry 35 years old—brought up the idea of therapy.

Therapy: The Turning Point

As Jeff explained, Emilie was the one who floated the idea of having a baby. "She said, 'Jeez, this is going so well, what if we had a baby?'" Jeff recalled. At first, he brushed it off, thinking it wasn’t meant to be. But after a year of deep reflection with his therapist, he started to see things differently. "It wasn’t until a year later when we went to my therapist and really dug deep into all my thoughts and feelings that I became clear and wildly enthusiastic about the idea," he said. Isn’t that something? Therapy can be life-changing, folks.

    Jeff, who recently starred in Hotel Artemis, opened up about his earlier years. "I’m glad I didn’t have kids until now," he admitted. "Looking back, I don’t think I was ready. I was too busy and probably more self-involved than I am now." But here’s the kicker: Jeff says he loves being a dad now. And who wouldn’t? He and Emilie are now proud parents to three-year-old Charlie and one-year-old River Joe. Can you picture it? Jeff Goldblum, the man who brought us chaos theory, is now navigating the chaos of parenthood.

    Jeff’s Career and Family Balance

    Jeff is clearly living his best life. Not only is he thriving as a father, but he’s also landing major roles. He returned to the Jurassic Park franchise in Jurassic World: Fallen Kingdom. "I look back on some things and think, 'I could have done better,'" he shared. "But I feel like I’m on the brink of my best work yet." That’s inspiring stuff, right there. Now, let’s make a deal: we won’t bring up Independence Day: Resurgence ever again. Deal? Deal.
