Celebrity Dads and Daughters

There’s nothing sweeter and more precious than watching a father with his daughter.  A dad’s positive presence in his baby girl’s life carries great influence in shaping that child’s identity.  We’re sharing pics of some of the sweetest celebrity daddy/daughter photos we could find.

Dwayne, “The Rock” Johnson may be a tough guy onscreen, but behind the scenes he’s a softie when it comes to his 12-year-old daughter, Simone, whom he proudly boasts about. The WWE, turned Hollywood star, once told People magazine that his daughter still uses his old wrestling punch lines on him, and everyone else, except for the curse words, of course.

Tyrese Gibson is one of those dads that holds parenting in high regard. And, we’ve seen him in more than a couple of playdates with some other famous fathers, including Rev Run, Vin Diesel and now rapper, The Game.  He coins those events Daddy/Daughter day, and we love that he takes pride in his role as father to his 6-year-old daughter, Shayla.

Kevin Jonas and his wife Danielle always seemed to have a happy marriage, and when they brought their 5-month-old daughter, Elena Rose, into the picture their little family appeared to get a lot happier. The singer is usually very quick to post a cute photo or funny video of his baby girl to social media, and we can’t get enough.

Okay, so maybe Beyonce and Jay Z never reveal Blue Ivy’s face in photos, but there’s no denying the sweet relationship Jay Z appears to have with his 2-year-old daughter. This special pic was captured by Beyonce and she shared the moment on her Instagram.

Cash Warren and his two angels Honor, 6, and Haven, 2, look adorable together.  Who can resist those faces?  We know papa Warren, and mama, Jessica Alba, can’t.  The proud dad once spoke with the Huffington Post about fatherhood and said, “you feel such extreme love, feelings that just the day before you didn’t know existed…” Well, as parents, we certainly can relate to those feelings.

Eddie Murphy has a lot of kids, but we couldn’t help but smile when we saw him goofing off with his oldest daughters, Zola,14, Shayne, 19, Bella, 12, and Bria, 24, earlier in the year.  The actor/comedienne has a total of eight kids, his four girls above with ex-wife, Nicole Murphy, along with their 21-year-old son Myles.

He also has a son, Christian, aged 23, with former flame Tamara Hood; another son, Eric, aged 25, with ex, Paulette McNeely, and his youngest is a 7-year-old daughter, Angel, with former Spice Girl, Melanie Brown.

Bruce Willis is surrounded by girls, and that’s because he’s got five of them!  He and his wife, model, Emma Heming-Willis, 35, have a two-month-old daughter, Evelyn Penn, and are also parents to 2-year-old, Mabel Ray.  The three girls in the photo, who are all grown up now, are from ex-wife Demi Moore, Tallulah, 20, Scout, 22, and Rumer, 25. Emma once said of her husband, “I’m so fortunate that my girls have a present and loving father in their lives.”
