Prior to his first marriage, he had a relationship with a Vulcan princess which produced Sarek's first son [[Sybok]], a character not developed until the [[Star Trek V: The Final Frontier|fifth feature film]] in the late 1980s. Sarek later married [[Amanda Grayson]], a native of the planet Earth, with whom he had Spock. After Amanda's death, Sarek married Perrin, also human, who survived his death. Sarek and Perrin had no children together.

Sarek's second son, [[Spock]], entered [[Starfleet Academy]]. Sarek opposed the decision because he wanted Spock to enter the Vulcan Science Academy which he had arranged for years before and the two were estranged for 18 years. Following a mission on the ''[[USS Enterprise (NCC-1701)|Enterprise]]'' where Spock helped save Sarek's life, father and son are reconciled in the episode "[[Journey to Babel]]", with [[Mark Lenard]] portraying the first appearance of Sarek.
