Ben Stiller | Son of Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara

Ben Stiller was born into a family of actors, so he might as well be one. Ben’s parents are a popular comedic duo known as Stiller and Meara, and both have a long list of projects in film and TV. Ben also became an actor and comedian but also worked as a film director and writer. He is most likely distinguished for his starring films like Meet The Parents, There’s Something About Mary, and of course, Zoolander. All of his films garnered $6 billion at the global box office, making him one the highest-grossing actors today.

His parents remained tied until their passing, and this could be a trait that Ben inherited because even though he got separated from his wife of 17 years, Christine Taylor, there were no reports of calling their respective attorneys to split from each other completely. They have a daughter and a son.
