https://www.jta.org/2020/02/05/culture/kirk-douglas-iconic-movie-star-who-reconnected-to-judaism-later-in-life-dies-at-103

"Neither of his two wives — the late actress Diana Dill and Anne Buydens, whom he married in 1954 — were Jewish, and none of his children were raised in the faith. But his oldest son, the actor-director Michael Douglas, has reconnected with Judaism and won the 2015 Genesis Prize, a $1 million award recognizing Jews of great accomplishment who exhibit Jewish values."
Fair warning - Any PMs sent in response to forum posts are fair game for ridicule in public.

He was jewish
Quote
At the recent Jewish Retreat in Rhode Island I met the rabbi who is Kirk Douglas’ rabbi. First time they got together it was for a Shabbat, met in Israel.
He walks into the Shul, and starts chanting... the Friday night service… Lechu neraneno lahashem. Rabbi is shocked that he knew it. Kirk says:
“Rabbi, I’m an actor, I know my lines. But Judaism is all form - no content.”

Why do you say that?

Look, I grew up I an Orthodox home, they hoped I’d be a rabbi, my mother made challah and lit candles, but it’s all form - no content.

So the rabbi asked him:
Imagine if you’d be spending money now the way you understood money as a
child, how would that be?

I’d be squandering it away on non-sense.

Imagine if you’d be eating foods the way you treated food as a child?

I’d be eating junk!

So why are you basing your view of G-d on your view from childhood!

Wow. @Proisrael may hashem help you through this. I can't begin to imagine what you're going through, and even though I haven't the slightest clue who you are, know that I'm hurting with you. May you only have simchos in your life, and may you find comfort soon.
Memories last forever, make them while you can.

Oy. BD"E  :'(
I can't think of anything worse in the world than losing a child. Hashem should help fill your void and bring moshiach now.
