Don Johnson Celebrates Daughter's Birthday in New Sweet Pics & She's His Carbon Copy

• "Miami Vice" star Don Johnson and his wife of 23 years, teacher Kelley, cherish a "sacred" life with their children.

• The couple's older child, daughter Grace, is Don's twin.

• For his family, Don gave up luxury life and became sober.

On December 28, 2022, Kelley Johnson celebrated her's and Don Johnson's daughter, Atherton Grace's 23rd birthday with an Instagram post. The post included two throwback pictures of their couple's daughter playing on a swing as a child.

Don, 73 in 2022, also created his Instagram post to honor his child's special day. The picture the actor used for the post showed Grace as a child, sitting on the floor and trying to fasten her shoes.

Kelley wished her daughter "happiness" on her birthday and declared her love, with Grace replying by calling her mother her "best friend" and sharing the love. The actor joked that Grace was trying to put on her "party shoes" for her birthday and revealed that he loved her a lot, and she replied, sending the love back.

On her Instagram Story, Kelley shared a baby photo of her daughter in a stroller, holding a telephone, looking older as she walked out of a door, and lying in bed with her father. Don's child also appeared in a throwback where she held two bags and one of the actor carrying her.

Grace's mother also featured a picture of her sucking her fist as an infant while holding her toy doll. Another photo showed the star's daughter sitting in someone's lap on the floor while Grace looked older in another one where she stood sandwiched between two people.

There was also a meeting Santa Claus throwback. Having such a fantastic family was something Don had to commit to and fight for, as he changed his lifestyle and made meaningful sacrifices.

Don Got Sober and Quit Luxury Life for Teacher Wife and Their Children

Over three decades, Don experienced several marriages and lived a life full of alcohol, illegal substances, and women. The "Nash Bridges" star lived a life of luxury that afforded him 20 cars in his collections, and women fell at his feet.

He had a jet, boats, and an Aspen, Colorado ranch, but the actor was unhappy. Don was married four times; two unions were annulled in days, while the other two were to fellow actor Melanie Griffith.

The "Miami Vice" star dated women like Patti D'Arbanville, Cybill Shepherd, and Barbra Streisand. However, he also had one-night stands and many flings but fathered two children, one being Dakota Johnson, with Griffith.

Don said he never drank or did illegal substances while working but partied hard afterward. In 1999, he started slowing down and married for the fifth time to Kelley Phleger - now Johnson- and welcomed three children, with the star recalling how she changed his life, stating:

“I gave up my vices. I jettisoned that stuff. Quit smoking. I got rid of the 20 cars – I didn’t need them to get me laid.”

In 2019, the couple celebrated 20 years of marriage, with a source claiming the pair wanted their family time to be "sacred." The insider also alleged that the couple, married for 23 years in 2022, lived a "charmed life."

When the "Knives Out" star married the teacher, they welcomed Grace that same year before having two sons, Jasper and Deacon. Domestic bliss inspired the actor to sober up, and he now has a relationship with his older children, Dakota and Jesse, with whom he was making up for the lost time.

A friend said Don was a "doting" and "involved" father with his three younger children. Nothing made him happier than when all his children were together, and he focused on being a good role model, ensuring young people understood illegal substances could destroy their lives.

Don said he was the perfect example of what could be accomplished when sanity was returned to the spirit and body. The "Watchmen" star claimed he didn't have "any vices" except his children, with whom he had a great bond.

Don and Daughter Grace Prove That Apple Doesn't Fall Far from the Tree

In 2020, Kelley shared a cute Instagram photo of Don embracing and smiling with Grace and called them "Twins." On Grace's birthday in 2015, the actor shared an Instagram image of him kissing his daughter on the cheek for her birthday.

In 2021, Don uploaded a photo of Grace slightly hidden behind him as she hugged him from behind. He asked his followers to swipe left if they "Wanna see my stunningly beautiful daughter?" The next picture was the star's daughter on her own.

In 2018, the father/daughter pair posed together in formal clothing, with the actor revealing she'd won Debutante of the Year. The following year, Kelley celebrated her daughter's birthday with a photo of Grace, herself, and Don, and another one of the actor's child alone.
