In 1976, Ruehl gave up her son Christopher for adoption in 1976. She was 28 years old at the time. She stated she did this because she didn’t have “the emotional development or the economic capability” to raise a child. She met her son, Christopher, when he was 21, and Ruehl actually later adopted another son, Jake, in 1995.
