Harrison Ford's Relationships With His Kids From His Divorces Were Affected By His Success

Most of the time when celebrities get interviewed, they do whatever they can to look good. When Harrison Ford was interviewed by Esquire in 2023, however, the famed Star Wars and Indiana Jones actor was honest about who he was. Most notably, Ford admitted that he should have been a better father to his kids from his divorces.

During their conversation, Esquire's interviewer and Ford discussed what kind of parent the famed actor is. Amazingly enough, Ford admitted that he wasn't the best parent because he was too self-involved.

"I accept my flaws and my failures—I don’t accept them, I own them. And certainly the more constant gardener is the better parent, and I’ve been out of town, up my own ass, for most of my life.”

While Harrison Ford said he wasn't the best father, his son Ben Ford once paid tribute to him. In a touching 2019 Father's Day post about his famous father, Ben Ford started by writing about how his famous father allowed him to find his own way in the world.

My dad or pops (newly adapted) has always had this way of giving me the room to grow, never pushing doors open for me but rather gently showing me the door instead.

Following that, Ben Ford explained what his father Harrison Ford taught him.

"He taught me resiliency as a young father and later helped give me the courage to pursue my dreams. His craftsman approach and his pragmatic view of life are qualities I have tried to emulate throughout my life and kept me on level ground while navigating life’s challenges and celebrating my successes. You are the best….Happy Father’s Day!"

“When you have a loved one who suffers from this disease, it can be devastating. You know how it affects their lives, their future, their opportunities and you want desperately to find mitigation. You want to find a way that they can live a comfortable and effective life.”

Even though Ford and his children have spoken about their bonds, his current wife obviously thinks he could work on himself. Before Ford admitted to Esquire he could have been a better dad, he told the outlet that Calista Flockhart thinks he should get some therapy.

“Which I still get s**t about from my wife, like I don’t take mental health seriously. I do take mental health seriously. I was trying to say, as I explained to her: It’s that I accommodate all of the flaws that people go to psychiatrists to accommodate, because I accept my flaws."
