Calista Flockhart Bio
Although professionally known as Calista Flockhart, the actress’s full name is Calista Kay Flockhart. She was born on November 11, 1964, in Freeport, Illinois, USA, by former English teacher Kay Calista (mother, who created the actress’ name by reserving her own name) and Ronald Flockhart (father), a former food manager, in Freeport, Illinois, USA.
Flockhart has an older brother named Gray, who grew up with her in various cities such as New Jersey, Norwich in New York, Iowa, and Minnesota because the father’s profession required frequent moves.
The actress owes her high school education to Shawnee High School, Medford Township, New Jersey. She completed her education in 1983 and moved to the Mason Gross School of the Arts, which is located at Rutgers University in New Brunswick, New Jersey.
Before her fame, she worked as an aerobics instructor and waitress in New York City after moving to the city in 1989, where she finally made her debut as a babysitter in an episode of the TV soap opera “Guiding Light”. Since then she has appeared in many television series and films and has earned herself a number of nominations and three awards to date. In 2010, she made the alliance with the man of her dreams, Harrison Ford.
Are Calista Flockhart And Harrison Ford Still Married?
Yes, they still live as husband and wife. Since Flockhart and Harrison said “I do” in 2010, they have grown old together and show no signs of heading for divorce. Despite some pit problems like Ford’s injuries and some other incidents we don’t want to talk about, the couple has enjoyed a blissful union.
Unlike Calister, Ford married three times in his life. His first attempt at marriage was with Mary Marquardt, then with screenwriter Melissa Mathison and now with Flockhart. Marquardt’s marital relationship with the Star Wars actor lasted from 1964 to 1979 and produced two sons: Benjamin Ford (born 1966) and Willard Ford (born 1969). Mathison had an 18-year marriage with Ford (1983 – 2001), with whom she had Georgia Ford (born 1990) and Malcolm Ford.
The paths of Calista Flockhart and Harrison crossed at the 2002 Golden Globes, after which they began to meet. After their engagement in 2009, they finally decided to make their relationship official on June 15, 2010, in Santa Fe, New Mexico.

Who Is Her Son?
His name is Liam. He was born on January 1, 2001, and has since taken Calista and Harrison as his parents. According to sources, Flockhart met a pregnant mother sometime in October 2000. The woman, who was already the mother of four children, later made arrangements with Flockhart to adopt the child, and she was invited to watch her give birth on New Year’s Eve at the hospital. Calista was the first person to cuddle the newborn baby, and later she was led into a small anteroom where she held the boy for almost two hours.
The actress always wanted to have children. In an interview in 1999, Flockhart is said to have said that she absolutely wanted to start a family and that she had to wait for the right man to do so.
Liam Flockhart is now a full-fledged teenager and despite his famous parents, he keeps a low profile. Most of the time his mother takes him with her to the set, while at other times he goes on vacation with his parents. He is not one of the social media types, and it is not known whether he already has a relationship or not. The best thing about this young celebrity is that he has a special relationship with his parents.
What’s Her Net Worth?
The actress Calista Flockhart has a net worth of $24 million and together with her husband they have a combined net worth of $254 million, which they are said to have earned from their stays in show business and other activities.
