Liam Neeson has had quite the acting career with nominations for an Academy Award, a British Academy Award, two Tonys and three Golden Globes. The 69-year-old Irish thespian found himself in a bit of a Hollywood renaissance later on in life with the Taken film series, playing a retired CIA agent who will stop at nothing to rescue his kidnapped daughter. Liam is a remarkable father in his personal life as well, raising two sons, Micheál Richardson and Daniel Neeson, with his late wife Natasha Richardson.
“It’s an ongoing joy being a dad. It’s always a joy, but it’s a joyful worry,” the actor shared with Her magazine in 2013. “No matter what age they are, they’re still going to be your little boy or your little girl. And you are a hostage to love.”
Tragically, Natasha lost her life due to a skiing accident in 2009. Five years later, Liam, who wed Natasha in 1994, opened up about his last words to her when he visited her in the hospital before she died. “I went to her and told her I loved her,” he recalled to 60 Minutes. “Said, ’Sweetie, you’re not coming back from this. You’ve banged your head. It’s– I don’t know if you can hear me, but that’s– this is what’s gone down. And we’re bringing ya back to New York. All your family and friends will come.’”
