The family made the announcement of James’s death and asked for privacy during this difficult time. James Caan has had a notable career in Hollywood, appearing in blockbusters like The Godfather, Misery, and Elf.

However, the beloved performer also deserves praise for raising his five children, Tara Caan, Scott Caan, Alexander Caan, James Caan Jr., and Jacob Caan.

While establishing his legendary career as a star, James became a father. Caan and his first wife welcomed Tara into the world in 1964 during their five-year marriage to Dee Jay Mathis. However, they ended their relationship in 1966, two years later.

The legendary actor went on with Sheila Marie Ryan, his second wife, and welcomed their son Scott in 1976. However, James and Sheila divorced soon after in 1977, just like his first marriage.

The former resident of Las Vegas welcomed his third child while married to Ingrid Hajek. The couple wed in 1990 and welcomed their son Alexander the following year, in 1991. Eventually, in 1995, they went their separate ways.

It is with great sadness that we inform you of the passing of Jimmy on the evening of July 6.

The family appreciates the outpouring of love and heartfelt condolences and asks that you continue to respect their privacy during this difficult time.

James completed his large family on his fourth and final marriage with Linda Stokes. After exchanging vows in 1995, the Golden Globe nominee and the costume designer had their son James Jr. that same year. The devoted father welcomed his youngest son, Jacob, three years later, in 1998.

James and Linda spent more than ten years raising their sons as well as the other blended family of the celebrity. His longest relationship to date lasted for almost 15 years, during which time they were married, before divorcing in 2009.
