In an unexpected twist, Hollywood icon Meryl Streep (74) graced the red carpet at Los Angeles' annual Academy Museum Gala, bringing along her four children as her plus-ones. This rare family appearance saw Mamie Gummer (40), Grace Gummer (37), Louisa Jacobson (32), and Henry Wolfe (44) all pose for the shutterbugs alongside their famed mother.
During this glamorous event, Grace Gummer's partner, acclaimed musician Mark Ronson (48), joined the family affair, while son Henry Wolfe brought along his wife Tamryn Storm Hawker. The evening culminated in the presentation of the prestigious "Icon Award" to Streep herself.
Notably absent from the star-studded event was Streep's longtime husband and father of her children, Don Gummer (76). Since news of their separation broke in October 2015, more than six years ago, the former power couple has been keeping their distance. Their last public appearance together took place at the 2018 Oscars. Now, the retired couple shares not only four children but also five grandchildren between them.
