**Patrick Dempsey Celebrates Twins’ High School Graduation with Heartfelt Instagram Post**
Patrick Dempsey, known for his former role on "Grey's Anatomy," recently shared a rare look into his personal life by celebrating his twin sons' high school graduation. The actor took to Instagram on Saturday to honor his 18-year-old sons, Sullivan and Darby Dempsey, showcasing a precious moment of them donned in blue graduation gowns. Patrick and his wife, Jillian Fink, also made the occasion special by coordinating their outfits in matching tan suits and sunglasses as they posed alongside their sons.
"Graduation!!" the proud father, 59, captioned the photo. "So proud of you boys and cannot wait to see where the next chapter of your lives will take you!" Jillian Fink, also 59, expressed her joy through a separate Instagram post featuring Sullivan and Darby with their arms around each other, their backs turned to the camera. "C O N G R A T U L A T I O N S CLASS OF 2025!" she wrote. "I am such a proud momma. Life's next chapter is upon us – go get it my sweet boys! Love you both to the moon and back."
The couple has another child, 23-year-old daughter Talula Fyfe. Patrick and Jillian, who married in 1999, have faced their share of marital challenges. In 2015, Jillian filed for divorce, with the couple issuing a joint statement prioritizing their children's well-being and requesting privacy during their difficult time. Despite the separation, they reconciled in 2016, committing to work on their relationship privately.
An insider revealed to People at the time, "They seem very happy and are spending a lot of time together. They go on dates and are also involved with the kids together." According to the source, the couple’s near-divorce was a wake-up call for Patrick, making him realize the importance of their relationship. In a candid interview in September 2016, Patrick admitted that their relationship was rekindled by "lots of sex."
In 2023, the actor proved their relationship remains strong by posting a heartfelt tribute on their 24th wedding anniversary in August. Continuing to show a united front, the family, including all three children, attended the premiere of "Ferrari" in Los Angeles that December, with Patrick and his children in matching all-black attire while Jillian shone in a gold sequinned gown.
