Maggie Gyllenhaal & Peter Sarsgaard’s Kids: About Their Daughters

As one of Hollywood’s most low-key couples, Maggie Gyllenhaal and Peter Sarsgaard tend to keep their family away from the public eye as much as possible. Though the two highly acclaimed actors are accustomed to the spotlight, they’ve successfully given their two daughters a private life.

Below, Hollywood Life has compiled all the facts we know about Maggie and Peter’s family.

“My husband is just — he’s incredible as an actor. He’s also just an incredible man,” Maggie gushed at the time. “He was great on set. I mean, I could totally rely on him. He was just beyond my wildest imagination. It really surprised me.”

Peter also complimented his wife for writing and directing the film, in which he starred in.
