<p>Anybody know why Matthew Reeves (on Today Show), son of Christopher and Dana Reeves has a British/Australian accent? Wasn’t he raised in Westchester, New York?</p>
<p>Didn’t see him, but maybe cuz he’s been talking to Madonna? ;)</p>
<p>Don’t Chris’s first wife, Gae Exton and their 2 kids, live abroad? They probably took him in after Dana died.</p>
<p>Matthew Reeve’s mother is Gae Exton, who is British. He is 29, just saw him on the Today Show. He is running the marathon with Team Reeve, to raise awareness of spinal cord injury. You are thinking of Will Reeve, who is 17, son of Dana Reeve.</p>
<p>Yes, Will is the son with wife Dana Reeve (used to play hockey with my S).
I used to see Christopher Reeves at the rink with his nurse–he was a very involved hockey father. Such a sad family story, especially for Will.</p>
<p>Thank you all for the clarification; Yes, I was thinking of Will; wasn’t listening that closely to the name (cause I was busy posting on here…haha)…carry on…</p>
<p>while we are on the subject, though, ELY, where is Will playing hockey? Somehow I think I had heard a school in the northeast, but can’t remember</p>
<p>Good catch, sevmom. Yes, Matthew, the oldest, was raised in England but attended Brown and ran the NY marathon recently. Will should be in HS by now. And small clarification-- its Reeve… no “s” on the end.</p>
<p>They played together years ago (youth hockey days) at a rink in Brewster NY. Not sure where he is playing now that he’s in high school.</p>
<p>Rodney… “carry on” </p>
<p>pretty funny. But I’ve been there too. :)</p>
<p>I liked my explanation better. :)</p>
