The two lovebirds are proud parents to their children, often posting their accomplishments on Instagram.
While Hauser is often busy with his career in acting, he always makes sure to set aside time for his family. Family life is clearly important to both Hauser and Daniel.
“I am pretty good about compartmentalizing working and family. I am always making time for each and every one of my children and also my wife, also, as a family together. I am good about making time for the whole family. You have to figure that balance out. But as a father and a husband you have to make the time and work just as hard at it,” Hauser told the Havok Journal.
It is clear the Hauser family is tight-knit and enjoys spending quality time with each other. The family even visits Hauser on the set of Yellowstone when possible, showing their support and love for him.

Cynthia Daniel’s Career
Cole Hauser isn’t the only actor in his family. Cynthia Daniel had a career as a child actor, most notably starring in Sweet Valley High.
From 1994-1997, Daniel starred as Elizabeth ‘Liz’ Wakefield in Sweet Valley High. She starred alongside her twin sister, Brittany Daniel, who played Jessica “Jess” Wakefield in the show.
The sisters took home the 1995 Young Artist Award for Best Performance: Young Actress in a TV Comedy Series for their roles in Sweet Valley High.
Daniel also appeared in The New Leave It to Beaver (1989), The Basketball Diaries (1995) and That ’80s Show. In 2002, she retired from acting but returned to the big screen for Cheaper by the Dozen (2022) alongside her twin sister.
At age 11, the Daniel twins began modeling for the Ford Agency, appearing in YM and Sassy magazines. They also appeared in ads for Doublemint gum as the Doublemint Twins.
Daniel now works as a professional photographer at her business Five Arrows Photography. She also runs a lifestyle blog called Sweet Collection XO with her sister.
The twin sisters have remained close throughout the years. Since Brittany’s fight with stage IV non-Hodgkin’s lymphoma, which she has now beaten, Cole and Cynthia have been avid supporters of Stand Up To Cancer.
When Brittany was not able to conceive a child after her battle with cancer, Cynthia generously donated an egg to her sister with the support of her husband.
Brittany now shares a daughter named Hope with her husband Adam Touni.
