    I went looking at Wikipedia because I didn’t know he had kids (he’s got 6 of them, all boys), but this paragraph about his personal life is pretty damning:

    >Marriages and children

    >During the filming of Stripes, Murray married Margaret Kelly on January 25, 1981. Later, they remarried in Chicago for their families. Margaret gave birth to two sons, Homer and Luke. **Following Murray’s affair with Jennifer Butler, the couple divorced in 1996**. In 1997, he married Butler. Together, they have four sons: Caleb, Jackson, Cooper, and Lincoln. **Butler filed for divorce on May 12, 2008, accusing Murray of domestic violence, infidelity, and addictions to sex, marijuana, and alcohol.** Their divorce was finalized on June 13, 2008. Butler died on January 19, 2021.

    What a beautiful, tender moment. He looks at his son with so much love.

    I still sometimes touch my son’s hair, just lightly brushing a strand out of his face. It’s such a simple gesture of love.

    He doesn’t like it anymore (he’s 10), so I’m trying to restrain myself and respect his bodily autonomy, but it’s hard when I will forever see him as my sweet baby boy! 😭

    Just let me love you! 😆

    Idk, I kinda get a Jack and Danny Torrance vibe from it after hearing what a jerk Murray is in real life.

    Whoa…the same Homer who opened the restaurant 21 Greenpoint in Brooklyn. Really great food nevertheless.
