Meet Kelly and Mark's son
Michael, just like his parents, ventured into the entertainment industry. He graduated from New York University's film school, followed by his sister Lola, who graduated from NYU's Clive Davis Institute of Recorded Music, and then youngest sibling Joaquin, who went to the University of Michigan to study drama and performance art.

He most notably played a younger version of his dad's character Hiram Lodge in the CW show Riverdale, and also appeared in the Lifetime movie Let's Get Physical opposite Jenna Dewan back in 2022.
The film was helmed by his parents' production company, Milojo Productions, where Michael worked for a time as well. "I've learned a lot from both of my parents on the producing side and on the acting side," he once told Smashing Interviews Magazine.

I learned a lot from working with him," he said, adding of working with them at Milojo: "I guess I got my start interning at their production company, and I saw how it happened. It really gave me my first minuscule taste of it."
Beyond his parents' profession, Michael always knew he wanted to be in the entertainment industry. "I've always really enjoyed telling stories and being in stories."
