In his speech, Law addressed his family, sweetly thanking them for their support as he pursued his acting career.

“I’ve been very very lucky to have had a family around me that have lived with and supported my passion for acting and filmmaking," Law said in his speech. “And some of those members of my lovely family are here today. And they know what they mean to me. I love them so much.”

Alongside his two older kids, Law also shares son Rudy, 22, with Frost. He is also dad to daughter Sophia, 15, whom he shares with ex Samantha Burke, as well as daughter Ada, 9, with ex Catherine Harding. The actor also has two young kids, whose names haven’t been revealed publicly, with Coan.

Although Law prefers to keep his younger kids out of the spotlight, his adult ones with Frost are beginning to follow in their famous parents' acting footsteps.

“I don’t think they felt strongly either way,” Law’s son Raff toldGQ Hypein 2021 of his parents' reaction to his decision to pursue acting.

“They’ve been watching me in school plays since I was 5 and it’s always been something I’ve loved doing, as well as music and writing, so they’ve been very supportive of me and my siblings following our passions and dreams. For them, if you work hard at something, the rewards pay off.”

As some of his kids have gotten older, Law has reframed how he views fatherhood, telling the online publicationObserverin 2016 that it is a “two-way relationship,” where he is there “to give that help, but they have to ask.”

“As a friend said, ‘Letting them fall over and not being there to pick them up … it’s really hard. But they wouldn’t learn to pick themselves up if we didn’t go through that process,’ " he told the outlet. “I’m beginning to see that our role is to guide them into real adulthood for the first time.”
