8 Celeb Dads Who Are About to Go Crazy Because of Their Kids
A study has shown that fathers are happier than mothers. And even though parenting is a huge responsibility and challenge for both, a lot of the times, dads take up the role of lightening the mood by throwing in their dads jokes. And just like all parents, famous fathers are also taken by the overwhelming emotions that come with raising kids. And some even share these surreal situations with their millions of followers, and we can’t stop laughing and relating to them.
Bright Side believes that we can’t survive the journey of parenthood without a generous sprinkle of humor and irony. Here are some famous dads who are living in a never-ending comedy show that is endlessly unpredictable.
Ryan Reynolds
Reynolds and his wife, actress Blake Lively, have 3 daughters ages 7, 5, and 2. The actor is known for his sharp sense of humor, and every now and then he shares hilarious tweets about his personal life on his account. A few years ago he wrote, ’’My daughter just sneezed into my yawning mouth. Seemed really pleased with herself.’’
Dwayne Johnson
As shown on his Instagram, The Rock is a hands-on dad who really enjoys spending time with his 2 youngest daughters. In 2021, he shared a video of his then 3-year-old in the car. He explained that she had been repeatedly singing the same song for more than 15 minutes. Looking hopelessly fed up with the situation, the actor captioned the video, ’’Sometimes we just gotta sit back, laugh, and surrender.’’
David Beckham
The soccer star has proven that even the most famous parents can be a source of embarrassment for their teenage kids. He revealed that his oldest son Brooklyn would ask him to be dropped around the corner of his school in order to not be seen with him. When Beckham realized this, he wanted to ’’react’’ to his son’s behavior, so he said, ’’I opened the window and shouted ‘I love you!’ to him.’’
Neil Patrick Harris
The 49-year-old actor and his husband David Burtka are parents to 11-year-old twins Harper and Gideon.

Will Ferrell
The 54-year-old actor and comedian who is a dad of 3 boys has put his witty sense of humor to good use in order to talk about his life.

Taye Diggs
The 51-year-old actor has a 12-year-old son named Walker. He is very close to his only child and revealed that they enjoy spending time reading together. And it is clear that the devoted father is fully dedicated to keeping his son entertained.

Jim Gaffigan
The 55-year-old stand-up comedian has 5 kids and has admitted that they ’’still constantly surprise him in different ways.’’ A few years ago, he shared a situation that happened with his youngest son, which perfectly depicts the hurdles of being a parent.
