Kevin Smith and his wife, Jennifer Schwalbach Smith, had their daughter, Harley Quinn Smith, while they were still in their twenties. The parents reared their only child in the entertainment sector to avoid becoming too mature. The pair have been married for almost twenty years and continue to have a close relationship with one another.
Kevin Smith’s Dating History
In 1995, the actor/director was in a relationship with Joey Lauren Adams. Their romance lasted two years, and they divorced in 1997. Kevin began dating Jennifer two years after his divorce from his ex-wife. He didn’t want another great thing to fail, so the two agreed to marry in 1999, just three months into their relationship. Soon later, the couple brought their first child into the world.
Kevin Smith’s Relationship with Jennifer
While it wasn’t love at first sight for Kevin and his wife, Jennifer, they do have a great tale about how they met. Following an informal practice, Kevin told Chris Rock that he had an interview scheduled with a reporter from USA Today, which he felt was “strange” since it would take place in his hotel room (as per Nicki Swift). Chris responded by joking, “It’s better here than at the downstairs bar. It’s teeming with whores!” Kevin assumed Rock had sent a hooker to his room once Jennifer arrived. He reasoned this way because he hadn’t expected to be questioned by a lovely young lady like Jennifer. “Everyone I’d ever interviewed for USA Today was in their late 40s,” he continued.
Kevin Smith and His Daughter: A Powerful Duo
Kevin has been a huge supporter of his daughter’s Hollywood career, casting her as the lead in Yoga Hosers and as Milly in Jay and Silent Bob Reboot. They are apparently collaborating on a TV project after previously co-hosting the Vegan Abattoir podcast. Harley’s most prominent role to date has been as Mallory Higgins, a high school girl living in the 1990s, in Cruel Summer. Following the horrific Season 1 conclusion, the Freeform series set a notable milestone as the network’s largest multi-platform premiere, and it has been extended for a second season.
In January 2022, the father and daughter ran into each other at a nearby marijuana shop. “When you’re in the cannabis shop, and you run into your child,” Kevin, 51, captioned his Instagram photo. “Someone raised that child correctly,” Kevin quipped on the post, to which Harley responded sarcastically in the comments, “It was a surprise but also not at all.” Working alongside her father was described as a “great gift” by Harley. She said that they thought similarly, implying that she was filming with a different version of herself. Kevin accepted, saying he enjoys working with his daughter and views it as a chance to play with her again. “I believed those days were long gone,” Kevin expressed gratitude.
