Back in 2020, Jeffchatted with PEOPLEabout his wife and how they have maintained their relationship throughout the decades.
The actor said it was “love at first sight” when he met his wife while making the 1975 filmRancho Deluxein Paradise Valley, Montana, where Susan was working as a waitress.
The couple married two years later and are now the proud parents to three daughters — Isabelle, Jessica and Hayley — and are grandparents to grandchildren Grace and Ben.
“We are quite different as people, and we celebrate that rather than making it drive us apart. I respect her wisdom, and I’m sure the girls do too,” Jeff said of the secret to his years-long marriage. “I’ve really been blessed.”
And while Jeff has been an acclaimed movie star for a while, he said his family has been his life’s greatest joy. “Time goes so fast, and it’s so precious,” he told PEOPLE. “To spend it with people you love, there’s nothing richer than that.”
