Martin Scorsese Addresses 'Remarkable' Wife Helen's 30-Year Parkinson's Battle and Welcoming a Baby at 56


The filmmaker and his wife are parents to daughters Cathy, 58, Domenica, 47, and Francesca, 24.

During an appearance on SiriusXM's This Life of Mine with James Corden, the 81-year-old filmmaker reflected on his relationship with Helen Morris, sharing why his wife of 25 years is "the most remarkable person." My complaining, I find, is nothing compared to what the suffering that a condition like that does, and so we live with it and it changes how you perceive life and everything around you," the Killers of the Flower Moon director said. I've tried to her and to her mom, you know, as best I could, as best I could, and I tried when I was younger, but we were still full of fire and fury and making films and we're gonna go out there and change the world and that sort of thing, and then as you settled in, suddenly it was time, but then the interesting life to have a child at 56," he added.
