Griffin is the oldest child, and Brendan has been open about his son being on the autism spectrum. The actor has become a huge advocate for the community as well.

He shared with GQ: "[Griffin] needs extra love in the world, and he gets it. [He is] a curative on everyone who meets him, I noticed. People have some rough edges to them. Or he just makes them, I don't know… put things into sharper relief and maybe find a way to have a little bit more compassion. They don't put themselves first so much around him."

The star shared his advice with parents in the same situation, advising: "You're going to encounter a lot of really colorful people, and how you navigate that comes down to how much you know that everything's going to be okay. You must believe that in spite of it."

Holden is the middle child and in November 2022, and he shared the spotlight alongside his father and Leland during a screening of their father's movie, The Whale, which took place in New York City.

He attended the Tisch School of the Arts at New York University, and Brendan came to his filmmaking class to discuss the movie.
