As recalled by PEOPLE, Henry and Stacey first met in 1976 during his time as Fonz on “Happy Days.”He recounted their first time together saying:

“She was wearing purple parachute pants, and she had red hair, and without her even saying a word, I thought, Woah, beautiful woman standing in front of me.”

After setting eyes on Stacey, he returned to the store to ask her to go get a soda. Initially, she refused, but after much persuasion decided to give in.

It didn’t take long before Stacey, and her then-4-year-old son moved in with Winkler. By 1978, Winkler and Stacey tied the knot and welcomed two children, Zoe and Max, during the course of their marriage.

According to USA Today, Winkler first gained fame for his role in the ‘70s sitcom. However, he didn’t reach the height of his career until decades later at 72 when he starred as Gene Cousineau in HBO’s “Barry.”

“I love being a grandparent. I thoroughly enjoy myself. We spoil them with love.”
