Denis Leary “Can’t Wait” For His Teen Daughter To Move Out

Rescue Me star and co-creator Denis Leary has no fear of empty nest syndrome setting in after his youngest child leaves home later this month – he’s actually looking forward to it!

Denis and his wife Ann are parents to 20-year-old Jack, who’s already flown the coop, while daughter Devin, 18, is preparing to head off to school in the next two weeks.

“My son is in his second year at Emerson College in Boston. My daughter is about to leave in two weeks,” explains the sardonic standup comedian. “I love my daughter, I love my son obviously. My wife feels the same way. Secretly, we kind of can’t wait.”

If you have teenagers - their rooms are full of such great stuff. When I was a kid your room was like dust. We were poor growing up, we didn't have televisions. My kids have plasma TVs and games and PlayStations and three different game systems and laptops. It's a blast!

He adds, “My son has guitars in his room – a drum kit… I can’t wait.”

Denis, 52, met his writer wife Ann when he was her instructor for an English class at the same college his son now attends. The couple have been married since 1989.
