Michael J. Fox and Tracy Pollan have revealed the key to their successful 34-year marriage.

“Tracy provides our family with everything we need. Everything wonderful in our family, everything nice we do, comes from her,” Fox continued.
While accepting the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award in November last year, Fox publicly reflected on his unexpected diagnosis.

“I was told that I only had ten years to work. That was a s****y move. That’s exactly what occurred. The most difficult part of my diagnosis was balancing the certainty of the diagnosis with the uncertainty of the situation,” the Back to the Future star stated.

“I just knew it was going to get worse. The diagnosis was specific, but the course of treatment was undefined and unpredictable. My wife stated unequivocally that she would be with me for the term.”

He stated that he kept the diagnosis quiet for seven years because he was in “denial.”

“Finally, I felt compelled to tell everyone. I realized it would significantly impact my career,” he added.

“What occurred next was incredible. The public’s outpouring of support, the lovely reaction from all of my peers in the entertainment industry, all of you, thank you, and the folks I worked with, was transforming.”
