On December 26, 2022, Jeff Goldblum uploaded a cozy Instagram photo of his family celebrating Hanukkah. In the image, the actor appeared alongside his third wife, Emilie Livingston, then 39, and their two children.

River Joe, then 5, and Charlie Ocean, then 7, sat comfortably on each parent's lap as eight Hannukah candles burnt brightly on a table with one already missing. In the picture, Jeff seemed to lean in to kiss his son's head, who held a pack of playing cards in his hands.

The star captioned his post with good wishes for his fans: "Sending light, blessings, and love from my family to you, to yours, to everyone, everywhere!" While he only shared one image of his family's holiday celebrations, including empty glasses on a table, Livingston uploaded more.

Along with the photo her husband shared, the star's wife also included one where the couple embraced while looking at the camera. A third one was her setting up the dining table for a meal, while a fourth showed her posing with other people.

Livingston, who wished her followers a Happy Hannukah and Merry Christmas, also included a picture of Jeff standing over their two children at a kitchen table, with a third one joining them. A dog was also photographed taking a nap on a comfortable couch.

The children, including a fourth child, read books with lit candles in front of them, posed in matching holiday pajamas in front of a Christmas tree with an adult and lots of presents lying about, and entertained themselves with activities, perhaps a game, on the floor while in Florence, Italy.

Livingston's last image was of a building with colorful photos, including yellow flowers, projected onto it at night while people witnessed the spectacle. Some words also appeared in white in another language on the structure.

The actor almost missed his chance to walk down the fatherhood path because he took on the role late in life. Jeff even credited becoming a father as one of the things that made his marriage better.

What Is It like for Jeff to Be a Father at 70?

In November 2022, Jeff was interviewed by Today's Hoda Kotb about what it felt like to be a father at age 70. Kotb, a mother to two daughters Haley, 5, and Hope, 3, described late parenthood as "such fun," with the "Thor: Ragnarok" star confessing:

“It’s amazing, it’s revivifying, and makes my relationship with Emilie, frankly, enhanced."

The "Jurassic World: Dominion" star became a first-time parent when he was 62 with his retired Canadian gymnast wife. Three years later, at age 65 in 2018, he confessed how he belied he'd become a father at the right time, stating:

“I’m glad I waited. It feels great to do it right now because all the things I'm considering are perfectly suited to the big questions and challenges of having kids, and what you want to expose them to."

The "Independence Day: Resurgence" star continued explaining, "What you want to leave them with, what life is, and what kind of life you contribute to them." Jeff appeared to be a doting parent who became a father when he was ready to take on the role with his full attention and love.
