It is Holden Fraser, the second son of Brendan Fraser and Afton Smith. 

The former couple welcomed Holden in 2004, and also co-parent sons Griffin, 22, and Leland, 18. The pair tied the knot in 1998 until their divorce was finalized in 2009. 

The 20-year-old walked the runway on Thursday for Todd Snyder’s Fall/Winter 2025 collection during NYFW – which comes to an end on Tuesday, February 11. 

Holden could be seen wearing a pair of sleek, dark gray trousers as well as a patterned cardigan that was partially ʙuттoned at the front. 

He layered the look with an olive green coat that was draped over his shoulders and slipped into a pair of black boots for a finishing touch. 

Soon after the runway appearance, the NYU student jumped to Instagram to upload pH๏τos of himself at the show. 

In the caption of the latest post, he penned to his nearly 10K followers: ‘Me for @toddsnyderny FW25.’ 

‘Thank you so much to the whole Todd Snyder team for the opportunity, it was such an honor to walk in this beautiful collection.’

Brendan Fraser also paused for pH๏τos while at the show and donned a pair of black trousers as well as a plain shirt and black, suede jacket. 

Shortly before the event officially commenced, The Whale actor was spotted sitting next to Aaron Tveit, Tramell Tillman and Tom Francis. 

Holden first made his debut on the runway when he walked for Hermes back in September 2023. 

At the time, he also took to social media to express his graтιтude at the opportunity and wrote, ‘Incredibly fortunate and excited to make my runway debut for @hermes FFW23 Men’s RTW show “Walking on Air.”‘ 

‘A huge thank you to everybody who made this wonderful show possible, from the casting directors to the makeup and hair crew.’

‘This was a truly unforgettable experience and I cannot thank the @hermes team enough for everything along the way,’ he concluded.

Holden is currently signed to the French modeling agency called Marilyn Agency, along with his younger brother Leland. 

His father Brendan and mother Afton Smith first crossed paths in 1993 while at a barbeque hosted by Winona Ryder. 

In 1997, Fraser starred in the film George Of The Jungle and Smith also took on a small role in the project. 

The two stars said ‘I do’ in 1998 but their split was announced in 2007. As part of their divorce settlement, the actor was ordered to pay $900,000 each year in alimony and child support.

He later asked the court to reduce the alimony payments, but Smith accused the star of not disclosing certain financial ᴀssets. 

However, the former couple have maintained a healthy co-parenting relationship years later while raising their sons. In the past, Fraser revealed that their eldest child Griffin is on the autism spectrum. 

While talking to Interview Magazine, The Mummy star reflected on being close with his kids and ex. 

‘Being with my kids and their mom and our family has given me such love that if ever I needed to hold something of value up to try and translate that to what was important to [my The Whale character] Charlie, I didn’t have to look far.’ 

And during an interview with GQ back in 2018, Brendan expressed how Holden and Leland have always supported their brother Griffin. 

‘Ever since they were small, one was always the spokesperson and the other was the enforcer,’ he expressed to the outlet at the time. 

A few years earlier in 2022, Leland and Holden joined their father on the red carpet at a screening of The Whale in NYC. 

And in 2023, they continued to support Fraser – who is now dating makeup artist Jeanne Moore – during awards season at a pre-Oscars party in Los Angeles.
