Early life

Fox was born in Toronto, the son of Dianne Gerace, who was an Olympic high jumper and women’s pentathlete, and Ulrich Fox. His father is Bahamian and his mother is Canadian of Italian and Scottish descent. Fox’s family moved to his father’s native Bahamas when Fox was young. He attended Kingsway Academy in Nassau. Despite never playing organized ball before, he went to a summer camp and became a member of the high school’s basketball team, the “Saints”. Fox also played high school basketball in Warsaw, Indiana where he trained to excel. After two seasons (1984–1986) at Warsaw, Fox was projected to have a very successful senior season. Just prior to his senior season, the Indiana High

School Athletic Association (IHSAA) ruled that he had no more high school eligibility left (due to completing eight semesters between the Bahamas and Indiana) and was not allowed to participate in any further IHSAA games. Despite not playing his senior season, Fox was voted onto the Indiana All-Star team in 1987. He then went on to star collegiately at the University of North Carolina where his highlights began his professional basketball career.

Personal life

Fox has a son named Kyle, who was born 1994 with Kari Hillsman, a woman he dated while playing basketball for the Boston Celtics. Kyle is an avid gamer and got his father into the eSports world.

Fox eloped with American actress/singer Vanessa Williams in the summer of 1999 in the Caribbean. They had another ceremony in September 1999 in New York City. They had a daughter born in May 2000. In August 2004, Fox filed for divorce from Williams. Fox and Williams’ split however was amicable enough for the two of them to work onscreen together several years later on the television show Ugly Betty.

Fox and actress Eliza Dushku dated from October 2009 to June 2014
