When it comes to parenting, Robert Downey Jr. admits he leans heavily on his wife, Susan Downey. In a recent interview with Parade magazine, the iconic actor shares how he's comfortable letting his partner take the lead in raising their two children, Exton, 7, and Avri, 5. Robert, 54, also has a 26-year-old son, Indio, from a previous marriage with Deborah Falconer. He jokingly admits, "I defer to her. Let's face it, I wasn't exactly raised the right way, so chances are, I'd likely have some questionable takes on things." It's clear that trust and teamwork are at the heart of their parenting philosophy.
Secrets to a Long-Lasting Marriage
Robert, who tied the knot with Susan in 2005, isn't shy about sharing what keeps their marriage strong after nearly two decades. "We just genuinely love hanging out," he revealed in the same interview. Despite their differences in home life, the couple thrives on their mutual respect and admiration. Robert humorously notes, "I’m a little more the domestic type; I could just talk to you about the drapes and recovering those chairs. I love domestic maintenance; it just gets me off." He adds with a laugh, "The way Susan’s mind works is both astonishing and, at times, horrifying, given the sheer amount of data she processes daily." It’s this balance of personalities that keeps their relationship fresh and exciting.
A Decade of Marvel and Beyond
Over the last ten years, Robert Downey Jr. became a household name thanks to his portrayal of Iron Man in the Marvel Cinematic Universe. He played the role that arguably became the most popular character in the Avengers franchise, bringing Tony Stark to life with his signature charm and wit. However, as his chapter as Iron Man has wrapped up, the Hollywood legend is shifting gears. Now, he's setting his sights on new projects, including his upcoming role in "Dolittle," where he plays a doctor with the unique ability to talk to animals.
