Tying the Knot
Sam and Katharine were dating for about six years before tying the knot in 1984. Sam was inexperienced when it came to marriage compared to Katharine, who was getting into her 4th marriage. It’s hard to believe that a young couple, perhaps even considered a mismatch, would go on to be one of Hollywood’s longest-lasting and most stable marriages.

The couple started having kids almost immediately. They had their first and their only child, Cleo Rose Elliott, the same year that they got hitched. Cleo Rose is now a musician in Malibu, California, where her parents live, too. Elliott also has a property in Oregon. And after his mother’s death in 2012 (who died at the age of 96), he also became the owner of his childhood home in Portland.
