Fonda found love many times in her life. Her first marriage was at 28-years-old to director Roger Vadim in August 1965 (per PopSugar). Three years later, the couple welcomed their first child, Vanessa Vadim. Fonda was thrilled to become a mom, but she struggled with postpartum depression, as she revealed to Vanity Fair in September 2011. "I just felt that I had failed—that nothing was turning out the way it was supposed to, not the birth, not the nursing, not my feelings for my child or (it seemed to me) hers for me," she shared.
Fonda would spend a lot of time away from Vanessa throughout her childhood. Between traveling for her activism, splitting custody with Vadim after the two divorced, and sometimes being swept away by her own career, she developed regrets. Meanwhile, Vanessa was growing into her own passions. She was bit by the activism bug like her mom, but she also had some of her dad's passion for filmmaking. She's worked as a writer, producer, director, and more on multiple projects throughout the years (via IMDb).
