The actor is trying to protect his family of the deadly disease, and is currently living with them “in a little townhouse,” with their two dogs, he also joked and added that “thankfully there’s a backyard.” He described part of his routine in quarantine as running a one-man preschool, “we get up, we do swim class in the bathtub.“

The star is very close to his family, and moved with his parents in 2011 before his father Charles passed away from lung cancer, he has also said that they “need each other,” and that he enjoys spending time with his mother, “She‘s a cool chick. We can hang, and she can roll with the punches.“

Gloria has been photographed with her son at different Hollywood events, including the 2019 Oscars, where he was nominated for Best Actor, Best Adapted Screenplay, and Best Picture for ‘A Star Is Born.’
