Edward Fox, James Fox and Robert Fox are the sons of actress, Angela Fox (Scandal in Black), and agent, Robin Fox. Robert became a producer. He was married to casting director, Celestia Fox (the Remains of the Day) from 1975 to 1990. He married Natasha Richardson in 1990. They divorced two years later.

Their children, Laurence Fox (Elizabeth the Golden Age), Jack Fox (Inspector Lewis), and Lydia Fox (Submarine) each became actors. In 2007, Laurence married actress, Billie Piper (Doctor Who). That same year, Lydia married actor, Richard Ayoade (the IT Crowd).
