While Jennifer has largely kept Atticus and his siblings off her social media pages, she did include her brood in her recently-released Lifetime movie The Holiday Junkie. The film—directed by Jennifer and costarring her husband Brian—allowed their daughter Autumn to dip her toes in acting after she expressed an interest in pursuing a Hollywood career.
“Our big thing with her is, even though my experience as a kid actor was very positive, I think we’ve both sort of said, ‘Stay in school, do that,'” Jennifer recently told E! News about Autumn’s ambitions. “‘Grow up. Wait until you’re a little bit older. Don’t take all of this on quite yet.'”Â
Brian agreed with his wife’s sentiments, saying, “I am a proponent of Autumn going to school and sort of growing up and figuring out who she is before she does all that as a kid.”
He added, “Because if it’s something that you want to do, you have to work hard at it, and it’s not easy.”
