Freddie Prinze Jr. & Sarah Michelle Gellar’s Son, 14, Drives Porsche
Freddie Prinze Jr. and Sarah Michelle Gellar’s Son Rocky, 14, Drives Porsche in New Photo
Rocky Prinze is ready to lap the competition.
The 14-year-old son of Freddie Prinze Jr. and Sarah Michelle Gellar has been deep into racing over the past year and took his skills to a new level as he got behind the wheel of a Porsche.
Rocky posted several photos of himself with a gray Porsche coupe to Instagram Nov. 6, sharing a quote by auto founder Ferdinand Porsche reading, "In the beginning I looked around and could not find quite the car I dreamed of. So I decided to build it myself.”
Rocky captioned the monumental moment, "My first time driving one.”
In the pics—shared in a joint post with his dad—the teen posed at the wheel, as well as on top of and next to the fast car.
And his parents have been revving up their support for his racing dreams, with Freddie posting about Rocky’s ambitions in March. The She’s All That star shared a video of his son speeding around a track on Instagram, writing, “Day 1. My son Rocky putting in that work on his dream.”
And it’s been his goal to get fast and furious from a very young age, with Rocky even sharing a snap of a project he did as a little kid in which he said he really likes “to race cars.” He captioned the August Instagram pic, “Living my kindergarten dream.”
Sarah—who also shares daughter Charlotte, 17, with Freddie—encouraged her followers to keep up with her son as he zooms into a new chapter, posting a photo of him on a go-kart and saying, “We know you’ve heard us talk about Rocky racing… but now you can follow his competition journey.”

The Buffy the Vampire Slayer alum previously shared that she and Freddie are doing everything they can to get pumped for their son’s dream of becoming a Formula 1 driver when he’s older.
"How do we foster that for him? I don't know a lot about F1 and racing, so it's like finding those contacts," she told People in March. "And luckily, I worked with someone who's quite a prominent racer—Patrick Dempsey."
For a sweet look at Sarah and Freddie speeding through life with their kids, keep reading.
