He has an estranged son named Robby from a previous relationship, whom he has abandoned.

In contrast, Daniel is a highly successful car dealership chain and is married to co-owner Amanda with whom he has two children: Samantha and Anthony. Daniel is finally living the wealthy lifestyle he envied as a kid when he and his mother Lucille lived in Reseda. However, after his friend and mentor Mr. Miyagi died, Daniel's struggle to meaningfully connect with his children disrupted the balance in his life.
