- You may be looking for the prime universe Sarek.
Sarek was a Vulcan elder who served as the ambassador to Earth during the 2240s and 2250s. He was married to a Human woman, Amanda Grayson, and was the father of Spock.
Sarek was born in 2165, the son of Skon. (TOS: "Journey to Babel"; Star Trek III: The Search for Spock; TNG: "Sarek") Sarek's first child, Sybok, was born to a Vulcan princess to whom he was apparently bonded, but not married. Sybok lived with his mother until she died, at which point Sybok moved in with his father. (Star Trek V: The Final Frontier)
Some time later, while serving as Ambassador to Earth, Sarek wed his first wife, a Human female named Amanda Grayson (alternate reality), who gave birth to his second son, Spock, three years later. (TOS: "Journey to Babel"; TAS: "Yesteryear") Officially, he stated that as ambassador, his duty was to study and observe Human behavior and that it was logical for him to marry Amanda to achieve this goal. This was his response when Spock, having been bullied about his mixed heritage, asked him why he married Amanda. In actuality, Sarek had fallen in love with her.
Years later, Sarek served on the panel that accepted Spock to the Vulcan Science Academy. When another Vulcan on the panel insulted Spock about his mother, Spock declined the offer of admission. Sarek was shocked, sternly telling his son "it is our way."
Sarek was still on Vulcan when Nero dropped red matter into the planet's core, creating a black hole in the center of the planet. Spock beamed to the surface to rescue Sarek, Amanda, and the rest of the Vulcan Council. Sarek and two other members of the Vulcan Council made it to safety, but Sarek's wife, Amanda, was killed just before they were beamed off the planet. Sarek helped comfort Spock after the death of his mother, saying that he should not try to contain his anger. While first noting that he thought it logical to marry her, he later told Spock that he did indeed love her. (Star Trek)
Background
Sarek, Amanda, and their newborn son (deleted scene)
Sarek holding his newborn son, as seen in a memory induced by Sybok.
Sarek was played by Ben Cross, who chose to portray Sarek with his own English accent, unlike Mark Lenard's American one.
In deleted scenes, Sarek and Amanda are seen together, with the newborn Spock. After Spock gets into a fight with bullies, they get into an argument. After Nero's defeat, Sarek senses Spock Prime's presence.
The birth of Spock is also seen in a flashback in Star Trek V: The Final Frontier, in which Sarek is portrayed by Jonathan Simpson. Since these events (as well as elements of Sarek's backstory such as his wedding to Amanda) take place prior to Nero's incursion, they logically must take place in both timelines.
