Colin Farrell tears up while speaking about his 20-year-old son with rare neurogenic disorder: ‘He’s magic'
Fox News
In a new interview, Colin Farrell gave a rare glimpse of what life is like at home with his 20-year-old son, James, who has a rare neurogenic disorder called Angelman syndrome.
He also shared some of the rawest moments he's experienced as a dad caring for a son with special needs and explained why he's chosen to launch a foundation to help families in similar situations. "To be told that he may never walk and see those first steps, I’ll just never forget it. It was so overwhelmingly beautiful." Christina Dugan Ramirez is an entertainment writer for Fox News Digital.
"I'm very private. I've never had crews within our home. It's a very safe space," Farrell told People magazine. "I have to, or choose to believe, that if James knew that doing this could help families and other young adults who live with special needs, he would say, ‘Dad, what are you talking about? Why are you even asking me? It’s a no-brainer.'"
