Emily Ford Files for Divorce From Harrison Ford’s Son Ben Ford
According to court documents obtained by The Blast, Emily Ford has filed for divorce from celebrity chef Ben Ford after twelve years of marriage. However, regarding the legal filing, he stated the date of their separation was February 1, 2022. The divorce was filed on Tuesday, November 7, 2023.
Emily has asked the court to end the ability to award spousal support and request joint custody of their son, 13-year-old Waylon Ford. He has cited irreconcilable differences as the cause of the split.
The two married on September 19, 2009, and separated on February 1, 2022 – 12 years and four months later. In terms of property division, Emily wrote: “All property, assets and/or debts acquired before marriage, after separation, or during my marriage through gifts or inheritance. I reserve the right to amend according to the evidence.”
Ben Ford, 56, is the son of both “Indiana Jones” actors Harrison Ford and Mary Marquardt. The former couple was married from 1964 to 1979. Ben currently works as an executive chef and owner of a Ford Filling Station in Culver City and an outpost at Los Angeles International Airport. He previously worked at Chez Panisse, Berkeley, and Campanile, Los Angeles, before opening his own restaurant.
Ben Named Father of ‘Most Incredible Journey’
In July 2021, Ben took to Instagram to share a photo of himself posing with his young son, named in his filing, and his eldest son, Ethan, who is now 23. “Becoming a father has been the most extraordinary journey of my life,” he wrote at the time. “I had to erase what it means to be a father and learn what it means to be a father. “
“My children need someone who takes an active part in their lives. A father who nurtures them. A father who is present in mind, body and soul,” he continued. “They need coordination. They need connection. They need someone who is emotionally available. None of that came naturally to me.”
“I spend a lot of time thinking about what it means to be a father. This means putting my oxygen mask on first while being selfless. They showed me it was never about them and always about me. There is never a day that goes by that I don’t thank my lucky stars for what these boys have brought into my life,” he concluded. “Thank you for being my main teacher. I love you to the ends of the universe and back.”
Harrison Ford’s Son Becomes a Celebrity Chef
Ben did not follow in his father’s footsteps to become an actor. Instead, he became a celebrity chef who was highly recognized for his work. On May 4, 2021, the son of the actor responsible for bringing Han Solo to life in the “Star Wars” universe celebrated Star Wars Day by making a giant Millennium Falcon cake.
Star Wars Day is celebrated every year on May 4 as a play on the phrase “May the Force Be With You” when it became “May the Fourth Be With You.” He posted a photo on Instagram showing celebrity chef Duff Goldman holding the giant culinary creation.
“This pic is from the first time I met @duffgoldman,” Ben wrote in the caption. “One of the things I appreciate about him is that he is an adult who still knows how to laugh and play. His version of the Falcon didn’t fly that day, but it sure tasted good. May the 4th Be With You!”
Many fans celebrate the artwork. “I always wanted a Falcon cake for my birthday as a kid! Nana I tried once. It was a basic sponge cake with orange icing and it was a little shriveled – but at least she tried!” one fan commented, prompting Ben to reply, “Looks like your Nana is very special!”
