In terms of Cox’s current marriage, he and his wife, Ansari, are content. Meanwhile, the couple has faced backlash and trolling on the internet due to their 23-year age difference.
The actor, who was born in June 1946, is 75 years old as of this writing, while his longtime wife, the daughter of a German mother and an Iranian father, is 53.

The couple’s age difference, however, does not appear to be an issue. Because Ansari is said to be an old soul, wise and usually at ease, whereas Cox is always full of energy.
Furthermore, the Oscar winner addressed the subject in his previously mentioned memoir. He initially stated that he married a young woman in his 50s because he was “better prepared” for fatherhood.
“I’ve tried to make up for everything that has happened in the past with our two sons. My career does not always come first these days. Perhaps I was better prepared the second time around “He stated.
Cox then implied that the couple’s age didn’t bother them because “Love is love,” and Ansari was (and still is) his life’s love.
Cox and Ansari are said to have been together since they met in Hamburg in 1990. At the time, the actor was starring in King Lear.
In 1998, the two began dating, and a year later, she moved to London to be with him. As they say, the rest is history.
