"Family Ties" launched Michael J. Fox into fame, but it also introduced many people to his stunning wife, Tracy Pollan. Pollan landed the role of Ellen Reed, the love interest of Fox's character Alex Keaton. The New York-born actor made her mark after filming one season of the '80s sitcom, and despite becoming her husband's caretaker, she's worked on different shows and movies in the following decades. "Family Ties" fans definitely know what the cast looks like today, but they might need a reminder that Pollan is such a beauty without makeup in her 60s.
In March 2025, the actor posted on Instagram to wish her friend Jennifer Grey a happy birthday. Pollan and the "Dirty Dancing" star took a selfie outdoors with both of their hands resting under their chins. Pollan' cheeks looked smooth as she gave a close-mouthed smile. She had slight signs of aging around the mouth and the eyes, but her forehead also seemed pretty creaseless. The wind blowing on her hair also made the "Family Ties" alum look effortlessly gorgeous.

Tracy Pollan's birthday shoutout to Jennifer Grey isn't her only makeup-free Instagram photo. Pollan has more sentimental posts dedicated to her family and friends that show how the actor aged like fine wine. In May 2026, she shared an Instagram carousel celebrating the birthday of Sam Fox, the eldest of her and Michael J. Fox's four children. "Happy, Happy, Happy Birthday Schmoo!!! You are the best and I could not love you more," she wrote. "You make me and everyone in your lucky orbit so happy!"
