Don Johnson, 74, of Miami Vice fame shares rare photo of his SIX children – one is with ex Melanie Griffith, another is with Patti D’Arbanville

Don Johnson, 74, has six children.

And the Miami Vice veteran shared photos of them all in a proud Father’s Day post on Instagram.

‘Happy Father’s Day all dads! Happiness hangs with my 6. Boy, I love them all!” the Book Club actor shared.

The children have different mothers and one of them is adopted.

His eldest is 41-year-old Jesse Wayne Johnson, whose mother is Patti D’Arbanville, 72, an actress who dated Cat Stevens.

Next up is 34-year-old Dakota Johnson whose mother is Melanie Griffith, 66. Don and Melanie have been married twice; first for a year in 1976, then from 1989 to 1996.

Then there are the three younger children.

He has 24-year-old Atherton Grace Johnson, 22-year-old Jasper Johnson and 18-year-old Deacon Johnson.

Johnson had them all with his current wife, Kelley Phleger.

The sixth child Don was referring to is 38-year-old Alexander Bauer, the son Melanie had with actor Steven Bauer.

Don reportedly adopted Alexander when he married Melanie.

One of the images also shows 27-year-old Stella Banderas; she is the daughter of Melanie and Antonio Banderas.

“I love kids, so it’s more fun times, more joy and more fun. It’s no less exciting this time than the first time,” Johnson told OK! magazine after the birth of his youngest son in 2006.

Don was a big TV star in the 1980s with Miami Vice, a series about undercover cops hunting drug dealers during the cocaine boom of the 1980s.

This series is largely remembered for the stylish clothing worn by Detectives Sonny Crockett and Ricardo Tubbs and the hit music.

But the storylines were solid and reflected the real crimes that devastated South Florida in the wild 1980s.

Don next starred in the hit series Nash Bridges opposite Cheech Marin.

The crime show was set in San Francisco.

More recently he has starred in films such as Book Club with Jane Fonda and Knives Out with Jamie Lee Curtis.

Don, who used to party hard, changed when he met Kelley, a teacher at a Montessori school.

In 2017, he told DailyMail.com: ‘People don’t develop to the point where they can have long-term, mature relationships until they’re in their 30s, which for some of us is.’

Then he said, gesturing to himself, “It’ll take even longer.”

Don said he stopped using drugs thanks to Buddhism and New Age self-help. He also released ‘fear’.

“When I was a young man in Hollywood, drugs, alcohol and parties were everywhere and it was hard to escape.

“It doesn’t become a problem right away, it takes time and it has led to bad choices.”

By the late 1990s, Johnson changed hands and sold his twenty cars and his ranch in Colorado.

A few years later, he won a $19 million settlement for a share of the profits from Nash Bridges, which he co-created with writer Hunter S Thompson.
