Jerry Seinfeld's Kids: Meet His Children With Wife Jessica

Jerry Seinfeld‘s life changed the moment he became a dad. The iconic comedian created a beautiful family with his wife, Jessica Seinfeld, and even though Jerry is extremely busy with his Hollywood career, he’ll never say “no” to being there for his kids, Sascha, Julian and Shepherd.

″[Fatherhood has changed] almost everything I do … trying to stay healthy, how I use my time and plan my schedule, I think: ‘If this takes me away from them, it better be very important,'” he shared with Parents in October 2007.

Jerry’s road to fatherhood began when he married Jessica — an American author and philanthropist — in 1999. The following year, they welcomed their first child, Sascha, followed by Julian in 2003. The couple’s youngest child, Shepherd, was born in 2005.

Though Jerry earned his status as a Hollywood star thanks to his gigs on Seinfeld, Comedians in Cars Getting Coffee and many more, he’s not raising his children to spoiled. In fact, the Emmy Award winner said he prefers hanging out with his family at home rather than at an A-list event.

“I don’t need any special days. I mean they’re all special. We spend a lot of time together and I enjoy every second of it,” he told Mr. Porter in June 2017. “I’m a believer in the ordinary and the mundane.”

The 23 Hours to Kill star loves fatherhood so much, he doesn’t been mind having a “garbage time” with his children, referring to the less appealing aspects of parenting. “That’s what I like. You just see them in their room reading a comic book and you get to kind of watch that for a minute, or [having] a bowl of Cheerios at 11 o’clock at night when they’re not even supposed to be up,” Jerry told Mr. Porter. “The garbage, that’s what I love.”

While the Jerry Before Seinfeld star wouldn’t trade his role as a dad for the world, he knows raising his kiddos isn’t always easy. “Being a dad is the greatest pain in the ass in the world you could possibly be involved in,” he jokingly marveled to The Hollywood Reporter in April 2016. “That is the ultimate dad-ness, full dad-ness.”

Sascha Seinfeld

The duo experienced parenthood when their eldest child was born on November 7, 2000. Sascha is currently a student at Duke University, where she started studying in 2019.

According to her LinkedIn, Sascha is very active as a student. Not only did she intern at The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon prior to going to college, but she also worked as an Assistant/Stage Manager for Duke Performances in 2020.

It appears Sascha has plans to follow in her dad’s footsteps as she already has credits in 2007’s Bee Movie and PBS News Hour in 2020. By the looks of her Instagram, she enjoys hanging out with friends, photography and fashion.

Julian Kal Seinfeld

Julian was born on March 1, 2003, and like his older sister, he’s extremely smart. Though Julian has yet to make his debut in Hollywood, he has joined his dad on many red carpets through the years.

As of right now, Julian is busy with his studies. In August 2021, he began his journey in college when he joined Sascha at Duke University. Jessica shared photos of the proud parents dropping their son off at the North Carolina campus, including a sweet snap with the college student. “No. 2 is launched,” she captioned the pic.

Per the young man’s Instagram, Julian loves staying active when he’s not studying. As you can tell from his page, he often spends time with his friends, traveling and has a hobby for collecting shoes.

With Jerry as his father, it’s only a matter of time before Julian makes a name for himself!

Shepherd Kellen Seinfeld

Jerry and Jessica’s youngest son arrived on August 22, 2005. Shepherd has been spotted out and about with his famous family countless times throughout his life, but he stays out of the spotlight for the most part.

While it’s not as easy to keep up with Shepherd as he’s still in high school and has no social media, Jerry will gush about his kids every now and then. In February 2010, the Benson actor dished why he adores being a dad so much.

“I love it. I love having a family and kids and all the madness. There is no aspect of it I don’t like,” he shared with People. “Even when it’s horrible, I love it. I didn’t realize how tired of single life I was and how ready I was for married life.”
