The former “SNL” star had a huge career in the late ’90s but decided to step away from the spotlight to focus on his family and help raise his sons, Dex and Thomas, with his wife, Paula.
While reflecting on her decision to take a break from Hollywood, Dana told People magazine in 2019, “I have friends who are stressed out about fading or not being hot. I’ve never been that engaged. I have a lot of drive to try to be the best I can be, make people fall in love with what I do and do it again. But the other side of me fine wherever I am.”
The comedian added that when his children appeared in the picture, he did not hesitate to throw away the attention to focus on the father.
“My wife and I do two humans, so I think I might have to make some adjustments based on two humans being there,” Dana said at the time.
Like their father, Dex and his brother Thomas dabbled in comedy and accompanied Dana to some of his shows, where they performed alongside the legend.
