Actor/writer/producer Michael (Aaron) Fishman, known for playing D.J. Conner on the long-running series Roseanne and its spin-off show, The Conners, has told that he would not be returning in the role. After appearing in 36 of 71 episodes and also directing 5 of these episodes, he also implied that it was not his decision to leave The Conners. Be that as it may, Michael Fishman was stepping away with gratitude for the experience and was excited for the opportunities coming in the next chapter of his career. While we took some time to bring to you a tell-all about his kids and so it goes.
Who Are Michael Fishman Kids?
Michael Fishman used to be a doting father to four kids but he lost one in 2020. The four children were Isabelle, Aaron, Camille, and Larry who passed away in 2020.
Of them, Aaron and Isabelle are Michael’s biological children. He married Jennifer Briner on 22 October 1999 and thus came in kids before they officially separated on 16 June 2017. On 22 April 2019, after some twenty years of marriage, Jennifer filed for divorce.
The Roseanne Show star later revealed why they chose a legal separation over a regular divorce. It was so that his health insurance would cover Jennifer’s. Also, they wanted their decade-long relationship to end slowly and not drastically disrupt their children’s lives. Michael also let the world know that he and his ex-wife had remained close friends after the split and that their marriage ended with kindness and respect. Still sharing roles as parents, they are believed to have continued to make their two children their priority and the basis of their decision-making.
Meet Larry Jones, Michael Fishman Adopted Son
Michael Fishman was in the process of adopting Larry Jones as his son when he passed away.
Following his divorce, Michael decided to expand his family by adopting two children, Camille Spirlin and Larry Jones.
Late larry died on 6 June 2020 at the age of 18. Although Michael had initially been very private about the death, he opened up after four months hoping to help other families in similar situations by sharing his story.
To Tamron Hall on her eponymous talk show, the dotting father disclosed that Larry had moved to a house in transition after living with his sister for a little while, and he tried drugs that turned out to be bad drugs that multiple people had a very serious reaction to. Most importantly he also showed his regret that he came into Larry’s life maybe later than he wish he could. He used to go around saying that it was Larry who chose him.
Larry was in foster care as a child when Michael brought him into his family. Before he died he was on track to attend Chaffey college just like his big brother. He was said to have left behind nine plus siblings and a biological father, Larry Jones Sr. who fought in the Vietnam War. Also, it had been the third year since his mother’s death (by murder).
Larry was on IG @larryk.jones.
Meet Camille Spirlin, Michael Fishman Adopted Daughter
Michael Fishman met Camille Spirlin through a friend who said Camille needed support and guidance and mentorship.

So, before Camille was adopted, she blended into the Fishman household, and they became a family unit. And when the time was right, she asked Michael to be her father as she had never had a father figure in her life.
Larry had joined the family after Camille.
Camille could be found on Instagram @camille_spirlin_ (with 61 posts and 502 followers) as well as on Facebook, Twitter, and Pinterest.
