Those of us who have experienced the misfortune of losing a parent or a loved one, know how
deep the wound that is left in our heart is. That is exactly the feeling that Robin Williams
3 kids and his millions of fans around the world have after 5 years! So this video is
dedicated to them! There is no doubt, that one of the most shocking
news in Hollywood was the loss of Robin Williams! The man that made the whole world laugh ended
his life in the most tragic way possible! But, if we who knew him for his 40-year career
and his roles were this devastated, imagine how his kids felt!
The actor was married 3 times, however, and his last partner was the only one he has no
kids from. His first love was Valerie Velardi, with whom he had his firstborn, Zachary, better
known simply as Zak. Years later, Robin began a relationship with Marsha Garces, the babysitter
of Zak, and with her, he had his other two children: Zelda and Cody. Even though the
media loves to stir up some stories and create a whole drama out of nothing, Robin started
his relationship with Marsha when he has already gotten a divorce from his ex-wife! Finally,
in the last years of his life, he married Susan Schneider, but, he did not have any
children with her. Speaking of his kids, let’s talk about his
only daughter, the beautiful and talented Zelda! 30-year-old Zelda has decided to follow
her father's footsteps, because, like him, she has been acting for some time now. But
when Robin left this world forever, Zelda was completely heartbroken and moved away
from shooting for a while to focus more on writing scripts. Which would help her with
being less in the spotlight! One of the fun memories these two had together
was when Robin was reading her stories! Williams was an expert in creating funny and captivating
voices when he read to Zelda. I have always wanted to have one of my parents read bedtime
stories to me but no one ever did! Among all the messages of condolences she
received, one stood out! That message belonged to Frances Cobain, the daughter of another
legend, Kurt Cobain, who also lost her dad tragically on April 5, 1994!
Zelda has a reminder of her dad on her tattoo! She has a hummingbird tattoo on her right
hand to honor her father. And the tattoo is there as a reminder on the hand that she shakes
hands with so that she can always have him in her thoughts.
I hope you still have enough tissues left after the previous story because now is the
time to talk about the eldest child of the Williams, Zak. The philanthropy of Robin's
good-nature is no secret to anyone, and his firstborn also decided to follow his example.
We say this because he is currently associated with non-profit organizations and also serves
as a board member at a couple of other benevolent organizations. Zak was also teaching at the
‘San Quentin State Prison’ in California. And he is raising awareness about mental health
issues by creating platforms for it! Zak remembered his father at his funeral as
his best friend! The connection between the two was so deep that when little Zak was born,
back in 1983, the actor decided to leave his luxurious life behind. Zak’s homage to his
dad was to call his son, who would have been the first grandson of Robin, McLaurin Clement
Williams! In honor of his grandfather, whose middle name was McLaurin ...
Last but not least, the youngest of the three, Cody. We can say very little about him, because
unlike his older siblings, he keeps the details of his life much more private, and does not
give many interviews. However, the little that we do know about him is thanks to his
sister, Zelda, who last year shared an image of him with his partner, Maria Flores, on
their wedding day! Interestingly enough, the day these two got married, 21st of July, was
the same day Robin Williams left us all! And Zelda has mentioned that in the caption!
When Robin left us all, his net worth was only about $ 50 million dollars, due to the
couple of divorces he had under his belt and according to TMZ, the actor distributed his
fortune equally to his three offspring. According to the report, each of them received
a third of their share at the age of 21, the other third at 25, and finally, the last one
at 30. For this reason, Cody, who is only 27 years old is the only one out of three
who have not yet received all of his shares. According to reports, the three siblings remain
more united than ever, as they share both the endearing and beautiful memories and the
grief that is left for them by their father's unfortunate departure.
Now I have a question from you guys! Do you think any of these 3 kids actually look like
Robin Williams?! If yes, which one is the most identical?! Let’s talk about it in
