The Hocus Pocus star shares his daughter with his wife, Carrie James, who is a former teacher. The couple tied the knot in 2005 before going on to welcome Caitlyn in 2007 and a son, River, in 2010. 

Sean and Carrie met at a friend's Halloween party back in 2004 and things turned romantic when they attended the same friend's New Year's Eve party. They got hitched less than a year later in November 2005 at Lakeside country club.

Chatting about their whirlwind romance on the Wedding Dish Podcast, Carrie said: "We got engaged in August, well I kind of put the heat on him in June, I was like, 'What are we doing? What's going on?'"

Opening up about Sean's intimate proposal, she detailed: "We were living together and I went to bed early and after I came out from brushing my teeth, he was on one knee with a ring. He thought your shoe size was the same as your ring size, so my ring was an 8.5 and my ring size is actually a 7."
