Dr. Phil McGraw dishes out plenty of sage advice, and when it comes to parenting, he's got real-life experience after raising his sons, Jay and Jordan McGraw.

The TV personality and his wife, author and podcast host Robin McGraw, married in 1976 and have since welcomed two children together.

Dr. Phil's sons followed closely in his footsteps — especially Jay. The older McGraw son works in production while Jordan is a singer. While neither share advice on TV like their dad, both have received wise words from the psychologist.

When Jordan and wife Morgan Stewart were worried about leaving daughter Row for their first post-baby date, Dr. Phil offered them guidance.

"I don't care how much you love your kid. You gotta take a break and recharge your batteries," he recalled to the Today show. "It's important for the child, too, because they learn, 'Hey, Mom and Dad went away, but they came back!' That's how you get away from separation anxiety."

Here's everything to know about Dr. Phil's sons, Jay and Jordan McGraw.

Dr. Phil and Robin's eldest son, Jay McGraw, was born on Sept. 12, 1979.

He holds a bachelor of science in psychology from the University of Texas at Austin and a law degree from Southern Methodist University, according to his LinkedIn.

Jay's professional career has kept him close to his dad. The father-son duo co-founded Stage 29 Productions, of which Jay is CEO and president.

Like his father, Jay has appeared on TV: He hosted Fox's Renovate My Family in 2004, and behind the camera, he created and executive produced The Doctors, plus a number of Dr. Phil specials, per Los Angeles Times.

Several years later, he launched RumorFix.com in 2010, which described itself as "an anti-tabloid entertainment website that sets the record straight on celebrity rumors." The now-defunct platform was later acquired by Hutch Media in 2014, according to a press release.

In addition, he is a New York Times best-selling author of self-help books for teenagers, including Life Strategies for Teens and Closing the Gap: A Strategy for Bringing Parents and Teens Together.

Another special moment happened in front of the cameras: Jay met his wife, former Playboy Playmate Erica Dahm, while hosting Renovate My Family. Erica and her two identical triplet sisters, who are also former Playboy Playmates, served as construction experts on the show.

Jay and Erica wed on Aug. 12, 2006, in an intimate ceremony at his parents' home in Beverly Hills, California. Dr. Phil served as the best man, and their vows were followed by a reception for 400 guests at the Beverly Hills Hotel.

Since tying the knot, the couple have welcomed daughter Avery Elizabeth in 2010 and son London Phillip in 2011. The elder Phil son enjoys documenting his family's adventures on Instagram.

Jordan McGraw, 37

Dr. Phil and Robin's younger son, Jordan McGraw, was born on Oct. 21, 1986.

Like his famous father, Jordan chose a career in the spotlight. From 2011 to 2015, he was in the alt-rock band Stars in Stereo before launching his solo career. He collaborated with Sarah Hyland on "Met at a Party" and toured with his friends, the Jonas Brothers, in 2019.

As for what it's like being raised by a celebrity psychologist, Jordan told PEOPLE Now that "his tricks don't work" on him.

Apart from his work, Jordan is married to TV host and former reality star Morgan Stewart. The two got engaged on July 4, 2020, and announced they were expecting a girl one month later.

"Been working on my dad jokes for years," the singer quipped on Instagram.

The duo — who dated briefly a decade prior — tied the knot in a private wedding ceremony on Dec. 9, 2020. (Morgan was previously wed to her Rich Kids of Beverly Hills costar Brendan Fitzpatrick for three years.)

Jordan and Morgan are now parents to two children who were born almost exactly one year apart: daughter Row Renggli in 2021, and son Grey Oliver in 2022.

According to the couple, they are content with being a family of four. When Morgan returned to Nightly Pop co-hosting duties in June 2022, she shared that Jordan had a vasectomy.

Fast forward, the singer and TV personality are enjoying parenthood, including throwing birthday parties to celebrate their kids.
