Being praised for good looks seems to run in the family as Darby's paternal look-alike was deemed People magazine's "Sexiest Man Alive." The 58-year-old was featured in the pop culture outlet's magazine for years, but only as a runner-up.

When asked how his kids would react, the star said they would poke fun at him and jokingly tease him about why he shouldn't have won.
