Hollywood Star's Kids in the Dark

Kelsey Grammer, the legendary actor known for his iconic roles in Cheers and Frasier, has a uniquely Hollywood problem – his youngest children have no idea just how famous their dad really is. Living in the heart of Los Angeles, Grammer's kids, Faith, 13, Gabriel, 11, and James, 8, often find themselves puzzled when tour buses point out their father on the streets.

“They get a kick out of when we’re driving around Hollywood," Kelsey shared with E! News, "and they’ll see the tourist bus...and they’ll go, ‘Oh, there’s Kelsey Grammer over there.’ And the kids are like, ‘What’s going on?’”

While many might recognize Grammer from his sitcom days, his kids are more impressed with his role as Dr. Hank McCoy, aka Beast, from the X-Men movies. They were surprised to learn their dad played this superhero, marking a moment of newfound respect.

Family Matters and Holiday Traditions

Kelsey Grammer, a father of eight, also opened up about family life and holiday traditions. With a new addition – a two-month-old son, Christopher – the Grammer household is bustling with excitement for Christmas. "My sons love Christmas. They love decorating the tree," he said. "We're still a very traditional family in that way, everybody’s very happy about Santa Claus."

The actor, whose family includes children from previous marriages, treasures these moments. "Just really sitting around with the kids and spending time with them" is what he looks forward to the most during the festive season.

Grammer's family life reflects a blend of Hollywood glitz and traditional values, making his personal story as captivating as his professional one. Engaging in simple joys like trimming the tree and opening presents, the Grammer clan embraces the holiday spirit with a sense of togetherness.

The Broader Grammer Family

Beyond his young children with wife Kayte Walsh, Kelsey is also the proud father of daughter Spencer, 42, with actress Doreen Alderman; daughter Greer, 33, with hairstylist Barrie Buckner; as well as daughter Mason, 24, and son Jude, 21, with actress Camille Meyer. This extensive family network adds layers to his life, each member contributing to the vibrant Grammer family tapestry.

Amidst all the fame, the constant remains Grammer's dedication to family, proving that even in the spotlight, the magic of family ties shines the brightest.
