Chuck Norris, the renowned martial artist and actor, is not just a legendary performer but also a dedicated husband. Despite his fame and success, Norris made the difficult decision to leave Hollywood behind when his wife, Gena O’Kelley, fell ill.

Norris and O’Kelley’s love story began in 1997. After meeting on the set of a television series, they quickly fell for each other and tied the knot a year later. Despite their significant age difference, their relationship stood the test of time, and they became parents to twins along with other children from previous relationships.

Throughout his career, Norris starred in numerous movies and TV shows, solidifying his status as an action star. However, when O’Kelley’s health took a turn for the worse in the 2010s, Norris selflessly put his career on hold to care for her.
