BREAKING: Kirk Douglas, Hollywood icon and Spartacus star, dies at 103
The acting legend, who had been in good health since suffering a stroke in 1996, is survived by his wife of 65 years Anne Buydens, and his three sons: Michael, Joel, and Eric.
In December, Michael became a Golden Globe nominee for The Kominsky Method as his father rang in his 103rd birthday. “It means so much to me, Dad, that you’re here today,” Michael said tearing up. “Thank you for your advice, inspiration, and I’ll say it simply and with all my heart: I’m so proud to be your son.”
In 1996, he was awarded an honorary Oscar for 50 years as a creative and moral force in the motion picture community. Douglas spoke about his father to PEOPLE, revealing that, “My father was not very affectionate, he was never interested in what I was doing. I had six sisters and no brothers and I wanted to be close to my father and he just ignored me.”
Another Academy classmate was Diana Dill, to whom Douglas would be married from 1943 until their 1951 divorce. She is the mother of two of Douglas’s sons, Michael, born in 1944, and Joel, born in 1947. As the years progressed, so did their relationship, even as the family faced such adversities as the death of youngest Kirk’s son Erik at age 46 in 2004, and the five-year prison sentence of Michael’s son Cameron, in 2010, for drug dealing. That same year, Michael was also diagnosed with throat cancer.
