Robert Pattinson'S Heartfelt Fatherhood Revelations: "It'S The Most Fun Thing"

Robert Pattinson's Candid Take on Fatherhood

In a rare and heartfelt admission, Robert Pattinson shared his thoughts on fatherhood, revealing that he wasn't initially a fan of kids. "I didn’t mind them. I would tolerate them," Pattinson confessed in a candid interview with GQ, published on January 23. However, the "Twilight" star's perspective has shifted dramatically since welcoming his first child with longtime partner Suki Waterhouse in March 2024. He now describes fatherhood as "the most fun thing."

“I think it’s absolutely wonderful,” he shared.

The Challenges and Joys of Parenthood

The 39-year-old actor, known for his roles in "Harry Potter" and "Twilight," has found the transition to parenthood to be a lesson in time management. "It’s just that everything is time management, the whole time. I mean, it’s kind of obvious, but you don’t realize it until you do it," he explained. Pattinson added that being away from his child is physically painful, highlighting how his body chemistry changes without conscious thought.

Despite the challenges, Pattinson is delighted that his daughter has already seen "so many" of his and Waterhouse's films, including his sci-fi movie "Mickey-17." He jokingly mentioned that he's "not getting any respect" from the toddler, as she doesn't fully grasp the content she's watching.

A New Chapter for Pattinson and Waterhouse

The couple's joyful announcement of their daughter's birth came after they were spotted with a baby stroller in Los Angeles. Despite the public's curiosity, Pattinson and Waterhouse have kept their daughter's name private. Reflecting on his new role, Pattinson admitted that having a baby makes him feel "very old and very young at the same time."

Though he's typically reserved about his private life, Pattinson's recent comments offer a glimpse into the profound impact fatherhood has had on him. As he navigates this new chapter, fans are eager to see how his experiences shape his future projects and personal life.
