Celebrity Dads Speak Out!

“I cannot understand how I managed to cope without getting cuddled this many times a day.”

- Russell Crow

“I love being a father. It’s wonderful. It’s changed my life. It all sounds like platitudes and clichés, and that’s because they’re the truth.”

- Ben Affleck

“Being a father is nothing you can plan for. You’ve got to take it one day at a time, and there’s no manual or anything like that. It’s not a conscious change, it just happens to you all of a sudden. We had Harlow, and suddenly our priorities changed.”

- Joel Madden

“The other day, when my 4-year-old saw a flowering tree and said, “Daddy, it’s raining petals,” that was poetry that just melted my heart into a mushy, yummy Fudgsicle.”

- Brendan Fraser

“Men should always change diapers. It’s a very rewarding experience. It’s mentally cleansing. It’s like washing dishes, but imagine if the dishes were your kids, so you really love the dishes.”

- Chris Martin

“Being a dad is more important than football.”

- David Beckham
