Dwayne Johnson: Fatherhood is the ‘greatest blessing’
Dwayne Johnson says it is the "greatest blessing" having a child.
The ‘Furious 7’ star – who has Simone, 15, with his ex-wife Dany Garcia and 10-month-old Jasmine with his partner Lauren Hashian – loves being a dad to his two daughters and quipped he is teaching his youngest one some "very bad habits".
Speaking on The Ellen DeGeneres show, he said: "It’s the greatest blessing just being a dad … I’m teaching her very bad habits."
Meanwhile, the 44-year-old actor previously revealed it is his family that inspire him "the most".
He shared: "I’m always asked – What inspires YOU? My answer’s easy and honest … what inspires me the most is always waitin’ for me to walk thru my front door when I come home …
"Happy 4 month birthday Jasmine! One day you’ll know just how happy, proud, lucky and blessed you, your sister and your mama make me. You’ll also thank me one day for your toughness and your mama’s everything else. #HappyBirthdayJas #DaddysLilToughGirl #GratefulMan #Ohana4L. (sic)"
When he became a father for the second time, Dwayne really wanted to be a "better man" for the sake of his kids.
He wrote on Instagram: "Kinda crazy but in this cool and powerful skin to skin bonding moment with my newborn baby Jasmine, I had just one wish I asked the universe … Give me the strength to be a better man today than I was yesterday.
"If I can accomplish that, then I’d have a good shot at being a great father. To all you young men out there who will be fathers one day, the goal of ‘being better’ will never steer you wrong. Trust me."
