He’s a wonderful musician and lover of music,” she says. She then goes on to talk about the positive side of her parents divorce. “You know, my parents’ divorce was really interesting and difficult in a lot of ways, but one wonderful thing that came out of it is that we don’t take one another for granted,” Hawke explains. “Every weekend is a special weekend because there’s a high value placed on time spent together.

You no longer have a feeling of infinite time; you quickly realize it’s borrowed time.” She continues, “So, when I was with my dad we’d spend a lot of time together playing guitar, singing songs, writing poetry, and would paint late into the night.

He was figuring out how to fully engage with a child. I was the kid who wasn’t interested in sports so he had to engage with me in creative ways.
