Family Spotlight: Hilarie Burton Morgan and Jeffrey Dean Morgan Shine at Canneseries
Cannes, April 25 — Hilarie Burton Morgan and Jeffrey Dean Morgan recently stole the spotlight at the Canneseries International Festival, showcasing their family as their children blossom before the public’s eyes. The couple, who have been together since 2009 and married in 2019, attended the festival in support of Morgan’s hit show, The Walking Dead.
The family looked picture-perfect on the red carpet, with the couple’s son, Gus, 14, elegantly dressed in a black suit, mirroring his father’s style. Daughter George, 5, captured hearts in a floral sundress, complete with a sparkly purse, bringing a playful charm to the event. They were all smiles, with Gus notably towering over his parents, highlighting how quickly time flies.
Earlier in the day, the family participated in a photocall for Morgan’s show, opting for a more casual ensemble. Burton reflected on their relationship in her memoir, The Rural Diaries, reminiscing about their straightforward yet deep connection: “We decided that when we had a kid, we’d name him Gus after Robert DuVall’s character,” she shared. This bonding moment happened only weeks after they started dating.
Navigating through challenges, including fertility issues following Gus’s birth, Burton opened up about her postpartum struggles after experiencing a miscarriage. “I didn’t know I had postpartum… I wasn’t fun to be around,” she admitted in a past interview. She expressed gratitude for Jeffrey’s unwavering support throughout their journey, emphasizing the resilience built in their relationship.
As a family unit, the couple, alongside their growing children, continues to captivate fans, reflecting the beautiful dynamic of love and perseverance.
