His father is an ’80s icon who worked on a TV show about handsome cops hunting down murderous drug dealers in Florida.
More recently, this star with the matinee idol looks has made films with Jane Fonda and Jamie Lee Curtis.
My father also had an interesting love life that made headlines for decades.
He was once married to an Oscar-nominated actress, but they divorced, only to remarry and then divorce again years later.
They also had a daughter who is now an A-list actress and is dating a top British musician who was married to an Oscar-winning actress.
The ex-wife of this child’s father came from Hollywood, while her mother worked for acclaimed film director Alfred Hitchcock (the man behind Vertigo and Psycho).
And there is also a link to Antonio Banderas.
Who is this child?
Who is he? His father is an ’80s icon who worked on a TV show about cops tracking down drug dealers in Florida and went on to make films with Jane Fonda and Jamie Lee Curtis. He married an Oscar nominee twice. Mother was a teacher. Who is he?
He is 17 year old Deacon Johnson.
His father is actor Don Johnson, 73, and his mother is former teacher Kelley Phleger, 54.

In an Instagram post from Don on Friday, he was seen looking uninformed on the field in hunter green and cherry red while dad added the caption, “My buddy.” How cool the brain, how funny! #7.’
Don was a major TV star in the 1980s with Miami Vice, a series about undercover cops hunting drug dealers during the cocaine boom of the 1980s.
This series is largely remembered for the stylish clothes that detectives Sonny Crockett and Ricardo Tubbs wore and the hit music, but the storylines were solid and reflected the real-life crimes that devastated South Florida.
Don next starred in the hit series Nash Bridges opposite Cheech Marin.
The crime show was set in San Francisco.
More recently, he has starred in films such as Book Club with Fonda and Knives Out with Curtis.

Don, who used to party hard, changed when he met Kelley, a Montessori teacher.
In 2017, he told DailyMail.com: ‘People don’t develop to the point where they can have long-term, mature relationships until they’re in their 30s, which for some of us is.’
Then he said, gesturing to himself, “It’ll take even longer.”
Don said he stopped using drugs thanks to Buddhism and New Age self-help. He also released ‘fear’.

“When I was a young man in Hollywood, drugs, alcohol and parties were everywhere and it was hard to escape.
“It doesn’t become a problem right away, it takes time and it has led to bad choices.”
By the late 1990s, Johnson changed hands and sold his twenty cars and his ranch in Colorado.
A few years later, he won a $19 million settlement for a share of the profits from Nash Bridges, which he co-created with writer Hunter S Thompson.
