Robert Downey Jr. is a proud father of three.
The actor shares son Exton, born in 2012, and daughter Avri, born in 2014, with his wife of 20 years, Susan. He also raised his son Indio, born in 1993, with ex-wife Deborah Falconer. Although Downey rarely shares photos of his children, he has stepped out with Indio at several premieres — most recently in 2022 — and he's vocal about his adoration for all three kids, whether in acceptance speeches or interviews.
When he won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actor, he concluded his speech by dedicating the award to his children: "Avri, Exton, Indio, this one's for you."
As he celebrates his 61st year around the sun on April 4, 2026, see his most adorable moments as a father with his three children.
