Josh Holloway's son frequently appears on his father's social media, but initially, when his father introduced him to the limelight, he tried to hide his face and only shared photos from his back -- Like in 2018 when they went fishing and in 2019 when he shared a short clip of him and his sister playing the piano.

But in recent years, he revealed Hunter's face, and he is the spitting image of his parents. From what Hunter's father shares about him on Instagram, one can conclude he likes to spend quality time with his sibling and parents.

Hunter's Father Is a Star

Hunter's parents have an incredible love story. They first crossed paths in 1999 at a Los Angeles bar. At the time, Josh was in his 30s while Kumala was in her 20s. Josh revealed that he felt a strong attraction when he first saw Kumala.

During an interview with Harry Connick Jr, Josh, who starred alongside Michelle Rodriguez and Jorge Garcia on the mystery series "Lost," disclosed that Kumala, who worked at the club, made the first move and asked for his number but declined to give hers. After a couple of phone conversations, the lovebirds began dating.

The morning after their first date, the pair had already started planning their future. They dated for five years and finally tied the knot in October 2004 in an intimate wedding ceremony. Before their wedding, Hunter's parents wrote realistic vows.

Kumala said they did not include 'till death do us part' in the vows, but they swore if their union didn't work, they would love each other enough as human beings to release and let each other be happy. The lovebirds spent their honeymoon in Alaska, driving across the state for 18 days.

They enjoyed each other's company while doing fun activities like fishing and cooking under the stars. The couple has been married for nearly two decades, and their love keeps growing stronger despite their age difference.
