Brendan Fraser Supports His Son During Rare NYFW Appearance

Brendan Fraser Makes Rare Appearance to Support Son Holden at New York Fashion Week

Being the supportive dad never goes out of style.

Brendan Fraser proved as much as he sat front row during the Todd Snyder RTW 2025 fashion show at New York Fashion Week on Feb. 6, where his son Holden Fletcher, 20, walked the runway. 

The 56-year-old sat next to Real Housewives of New York’s Jenna Lyons and her partner Cass Bird, in a video shared to TikTok, capturing the moment Holden made his way down the runway in an olive green jacket, layered over a sweater, and paired with grey trousers.

And the sweet reaction from Brendan—also dad to children Griffin, 22, and Leland, 18, with his ex-wife Afton Smith—got the seal of approval from his middle son as Holden posted a video of the Oscar winner watching the runway show in awe to his Instagram Stories, alongside a trio of heart hand emojis. 

Holden, who made his runway debut in 2023, also took a moment to reflect on how much it meant to walk in the show while sharing highlights from his day on the catwalk.

“Me for @toddsnyderny FW25,” the New York University Student wrote alongside a photo carousel from the Feb. 6 show. “Thank you so much to the whole Todd Snyder team for the opportunity, it was such an honor to walk in this beautiful collection.”

Of course, for the Fraser boys, the show of support goes both ways. Indeed, Holden and Leland accompanied their dad and his girlfriend Jeanne Moore to the 2023 Oscars where Brendan went on to win Best Actor for his role in The Whale. And ahead of the ceremony, The Mummy star’s sons shared how they felt about their dad’s big year.

“We are unbelievably proud,” Holden gushed on E!’s Live From the Red Carpet. “Over the moon.” 

Holden wasn’t the only runway model who had their No. 1 fan in the audience during a Fashion Week show. Heidi Klum was spotted recording her and Seal’s 19-year-old son Henry Samuel as he made his runway debut at the Lena Erziak Haute Couture Spring-Summer 2025 Show during Paris Fashion Week. As she gushed on social media, “So proud of you Henry.”
