Sarah Michelle Gellar and Freddie Prinze Jr. notably stepped away from the spotlight when they started a family. Prinze wanted to be a stay-at-home dad, while Gellar came to the realization that she wanted to be more present for her kids, especially after her “The Crazy Ones” co-star, Robin Williams, had died. “I need to be here for these early formative years of my kids’ life,” she told People. “I needed that break to be the parent that I wanted to be.”
Gellar decided to return to acting in 2022 knowing that she still had a lot to offer. But you won’t see her starring in any project with her husband in the foreseeable future because their number one priority is their children. “Right now I can honestly say we won’t work together because we have young children and we work it out so that one of us is always home,” she shared with Us Weekly. “Who’s to say 15 years from now? I can’t speak to what that might look like.”
Meanwhile, Prinze shared that starring in another project with his wife — likely a rom-com “based on my track record and hers” — would leave very little to the imagination. “I don’t think it’s that exciting to watch two people struggle to be together when, you know, they’re going home together at the end of the night,” he admitted.
