Family time! Brendan Fraser, 49, takes sons on tube ride during Barbados vacation... after revealing his eldest child is on 'autism spectrum'
Brendan Fraser is not only making a comeback with his new FX TV series Trust, but he's also enjoying his down time with his kids.
On Friday the George Of The Jungle star was seen riding a tube at the Fairmont Hotel in Barbados with sons Griffin, 15, and Holden, 13. He also has another son, Leland, 11.
This comes after he delivered a bombshell for the March issue of GQ interview where he revealed that his eldest child is on the autism spectrum.

Fun for all: Also with Brendan and Griffin was son Holden, 13; they were heading onto a tube
The movie star spoke candidly about his son. 'He needs extra love in the world, and he gets it,' said the Texas Rising actor.
'And his brothers, ever since they were small, one was always the spokesperson and the other was the enforcer.'
And the Hollywood vet is happy that a horse he adopted named Pecas that he keeps at his Bedford, New York home can help.
'There's something good that happens between the two of them. And even if he doesn't ride him, just give him a brush,' added Fraser.
Dark magic: On Friday the actor wore black shorts and a blue T-shirt and a blue bandanna
'The horse loves it, the repetitive motion that kids on the spectrum have that they love. And it just works… You know, you have to find those tools, strategies. If I ride, too, I just feel better. I just feel better.'
The mother is his ex-wife Afton Smith who raised the kids in Greenwich, Connecticut, which is not far from Bedford.
On Friday the actor wore black shorts and a blue T-shirt with a small red life vest strapped on as he hit the beach.

Fast: Fraser did look a bit apprehensive as speed picked up on the tube with his youngest son opening his mouth wide. They all smiled when the little tube picked up even more speed and made some waves
And the star, who made a fortune off The Mummy movies, also had a blue-and-white bandanna around his head.
Before getting on the large green tube, the Encino man star chatted easily with his two sons.

A big star: He was a heartthrob in the Nineties thanks to films like 1997's George Of The Jungle, in which he co-starred with Leslie Mann
A massive franchise: He made several Mummy movies with Rachel Weisz; this is the first in 1999
Fraser did look a bit apprehensive as speed picked up on the tube with his youngest son opening his mouth wide.
They all smiled when the little tube picked up even more speed and made some waves.
Fraser was an A list movie star in the Nineties. He was in Encino Man and School Ties in 1992, Airheads in 1994, George of the Jungle in 1997 and The Mummy in 1999.
Also in the interview he talked about how he suffered depression after his failed marriage, health issues from too many stunts on his movies and sexual harassment experience earlier in his life.
Trust debuts Friday evening on FX.
