The 54-year-old actor, who married Sara on June 7, 2014, stepped out in a burgundy suit while his wife shimmered in a gold gown. Owen and Auden, from Wyle’s previous marriage, matched in sleek all-black ensembles – Auden in a sheer body-con dress with polka-dot stockings and Owen in a classic suit.
Family Affair on Camera
Wyle told News Of Los Angeles that Auden has already booked acting jobs, including playing his daughter in an episode of Leverage: Redemption. Two more father-daughter scenes they filmed will appear in the show’s upcoming third season.
- Auden: acting career underway
- Owen: college film classes, eyeing industry work
- Frances: 9-year-old “dynamo” keeping options open
From ER to The Pitt

Despite 12 seasons as Dr. Carter on ER, Wyle’s older kids still haven’t watched the NBC hit. “They’ve watched more Grey’s Anatomy than they have ER. It’s a point of contention,” he admitted. Instead, they’re tuning into his new series, where he plays senior attending Dr. Michael “Robby” Robinavitch.
Wyle joked on The Late Show about mis-diagnosing his children’s bumps and bruises: “Oh, it’s a compound fracture? Maybe cold water is not going to work.”
| Child | Age | Career Path |
|---|---|---|
| Auden | 23 | Acting, starred with dad on Leverage |
| Owen | 20 | College film classes |
| Frances | 9 | Too soon to tell |
The actor keeps it real with his kids, stressing that “lightning strikes” rarely repeat in the same place.
