Join Wonderwall.com as we celebrate Father's Day with a look at some of the Hollywood stars who became dads later in life… starting with Jeff Goldblum. The "Jurassic Park" actor became a first-time father in January 2015 when his third wife, retired Olympic rhythmic gymnast Emilie Livingston (who's 30 years Jeff's junior), gave birth to son Charlie Ocean. At the time, Jeff was 62. The star of Disney+'s "The World According to Jeff Goldblum" became a father once again in 2017 with the birth of son River Joe when he was 64. "I feel right on schedule and I love our two boys," he told Us Weekly in 2018. "Everything seemed to happen perfectly. I appreciate it wildly." But Jeff isn't the only star to embrace fatherhood as a senior citizen. Keep reading to see more famous dads who had children after 60…
