Quinlin Dempsey Stiller is the youngest child of his father. He is the second child of his parents and was born three years after his parents welcomed his older sister.

When he was three, he started walking in his father's footsteps as an actor. He has voiced some cartoon characters and starred in other Hollywood projects.

Quinlin Dempsey Stiller Loved to Listen to Stories from His Father

Quinlin was born on July 10, 2005, and even though he was born into a celebrity household, his parents, Ben Stiller and Christine Taylor, kept him away from the public until he was 15 months old.

His first public appearance was at the 14th Annual Family Halloween Carnival at Universal Studios in Los Angeles. Camp Ronald McDonald organized the event for Kids.

As a child, he also loved hearing his father tell stories. At some point, he always wanted to listen to the same stories all the time. He also loved stories that included Thomas Trains and could remember the names of the almost 60 trains in the story series.

Quinlin's parents had met on a show his father was producing. His mom, Christine Taylor, is an actress who later revealed that she took more work breaks to spend more time with her husband.

However, when she started having children, she felt it was important for their family to have more stability, and she knew her husband was always working too much. It felt natural for her to focus more on her family and take on fewer roles.

Over the years, she began only taking on roles that allowed her to spend time with her kids, especially being there for them in the mornings and putting them to bed at night. She would also take on roles that made her kids happy.

Quinlin's parents married on May 13, 2000, and welcomed their child, Ella Olivia Stiller, on April 10, two years later. After almost two decades together, his parents separated in 2017.

However, when the pandemic began in 2020, they had to live together so his father could spend more time with him and his sister. During this time, his parents mended their relationship and were reunited.

Quinlin Was at Gladiator Training Camp

When Ben was shooting "Zoolander" in Italy, Quinlin was opportune to visit his father. During his stay, his father signed him up at a gladiator training camp in Rome.

Unfortunately, it differed from what his father had hoped. The school's location was sketchy, and even though it had a fighting pit, his father remarked that the instructor was mean to the kids.

Quinlin has also joined his father in the movie industry. In 2008, he voiced the role of baby Alex in the animation "Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa." Two years after his first role, he voiced a schoolchild in "Megamind."

In 2021, he starred alongside his father in his first credited movie. He and his father played father and son in "Locked Down," a romantic comedy heist film featuring Anne Hathaway, Chiwetel Ejiofor, Mindy Kaling, Lucy Boynton, and others.

Quinlin's Father Dropped Everything to Take His Son to the Hospital

Quinlin's sister once told their father he was often absent because he worked a lot. However, his father, who once wondered how time flew and how fast his kids were growing, had done his best to ensure he was there when his kids needed him.

One time, when he had a knee injury from playing Nerf basketball, his father took time off from work to take him to his surgeon's appointment, as the doctor had recommended surgery.

Quinlin and his sister live with a famous dad but have yet to watch many of his movies. In August 2019, their father revealed that even though they were already teenagers, they had only seen one of his films, "Night at the Museum."

In 2020, he supported his father in the #MaskUp Challenge on Instagram. His father posted a black and white picture of both of them wearing masks with the caption: "I #MaskUp for my son, and we mask up together because science is a super power and can help save hundreds of thousands of lives."
