Michael J Fox ‘can’t keep eyes off’ wife Tracy Pollan before receiving major honour

Michael J Fox was snapped looking lovingly at his wife of 36 years Tracy Pollan on the red carpet on Thursday.

The beloved Hollywood pair stepped out for the Time 100 Gala in New York City, where the actor was honoured.

They looked more loved up than ever as they posed for photos in a sweet embrace.

Michael, 62, clearly couldn’t keep his eyes off Tracy, 63, gazing at her with a huge smile while she smouldered for the camera.

The Back to the Future star kept his arm locked around his wife’s waist, who looked stunning in a green floral print dress with her blonde tresses cascading over her shoulders.

Meanwhile, Michael stayed sharp in a black tuxedo jacket, keeping his white shirt unbuttoned and tieless for a more debonair look.

The Hollywood star has been raising awareness for Parkinson’s disease throughout his career, ever he disclosed his 1991 diagnosis in 1998.

Although he continued acting for almost three more decades, he stepped back from perfoming in 2020 due to his speech becoming increasingly unreliable.

He has now been honoured by Time’s list of the 100 most influential people of 2024 and was one of the stars of the show at Thursday night’s gala.

Other celebrities on the list include Taraji P Henson, Dua Lipa, 21 Savage, Dev Patel and Elliot Page.

As always, American national treasure Michael received a warm welcome at the gala, including from Sunday Today host Willie Geist when he got up to receive his trophy.

To honour their place on the Time 100, each recipient received a tribute from another high-profile individual.

Michael’s was written by Deadpool actor Ryan Reynolds, who described the Teen Wolf star as a “friend”.

“It’d be kinda lazy to simply characterize him as the greatest champion of Parkinson’s research on the planet,” he wrote.

“He’s someone who helped my dad, along with millions of others, feel less alone.

“It’d be kinda lazy to simply regard him as a movie star who shaped the lives of people all over the planet with a uniquely electric wit and self-aware charm.

“He’s the sum of these beautiful parts. And so many more.”

The gala will be airing on television on May 12, when viewers can tune into the star-studded celebration on ABC.
