The star pictured with her family
Michelle shares her children with husband David E. Kelley. The couple tied the knot in 1993; at the time, the star had entered into private adoption proceedings and in March that same year adopted newborn daughter Claudia. The little girl was christened on Michelle and David’s wedding day.
In 1994, Michelle gave birth to the couple's son, John Henry Kelley II - named after his maternal grandfather.
Michelle and David have been happily married since 1993
In an interview with Good Housekeeping in 2007, Michelle spoke about those early days with David, 65, and their immediate foray into parenthood.
"The adoption process was already in motion when he and I met. So when she came, he and I had only been together for about two months," she shared.
"So we had this child with us right away, and most people don't have that. But I really got to see him in a situation that certainly would separate the boys from the men. Obviously, he really rose to the occasion."
