Mariska Hargitay is hosting the 78th Emmy Awards, and she's already won big ahead of the televised ceremony. She nabbed two Emmys for directing and producing My Mom Jayne, a biopic about her late mother, Jayne Mansfield. Since the movie came out, the Law & Order: SVU star has received support from her family, who posed with her on the red carpets at the 2025 Cannes Film Festival and 2026 Tribeca Film Festival.
Now that she's taking up hosting duties, Hargitay is sure to be cheered on by her husband, Peter Hermann, and their three kids. The 62-year-old actress has spoken often about being a parent. "The thing that's made me a better parent is my kids," Hargitay told People in 2018. "Because they taught me to really listen. My husband is my North Star, and my kids are my teachers." Get all the facts about August, Amaya, and Andrew Hermann below.

Almost two years after marrying Hermann, whom Hargitay met on the set of Law & Order: SVU, they welcomed their first child together. August was born on June 28, 2006, when the actress was 42. A few months later, Hargitay won her first Emmy.
Now 20 years old, August has been spotted visiting the Law & Order: SVU set in New York City as recently as Season 27. He's been photographed with his mother at various outings, from red carpets to New York Knicks games to the US Open.
