The Hollywood star was born in Sydney, Australia, July 27, 1968 and was from a famous pair of parents.

His father, Sir William McMahon, was the Prime Minister of Australia from 1971 to 1972, and his mother was Sonia McMahon, an Australian worldly and fashion icon.

In an interview with Jimmy Kimmel in 2007, McMahon said he did not remember much on his father’s days as the best politician in Australia because of his young age.

“It’s a little different there because Australia is a smaller country, it was the 70s, everything was not so public.” He said. “It was a little easier. You were not growing under the spotlight. The paparazzi did not follow you.”

In 2018, McMahon returned to Australia to play in a dramatic comedy film, “Swinging Safari”, alongside the Australian star Kylie Minogue. Minogue was McMahon’s former sister-in-law of McMahon’s first marriage to Minogue’s younger sister, Dannii Minogue in the 1990s.

McMahon could have relying on his rare memories of the role of his father as the main Australian politician in recent years. He played in the Murder Mystery series “The Residence”, playing the role of an Australian Prime Minister, who was created on Netflix this year.

In addition to his wife, Kelly McMahon, whom he married in 2014, McMahon leaves behind a Madison girl from his previous marriage to the model Brook Burns.
