"I'm very proud. That moment is unlike any other. To feel that level of love and commitment and the investment of time into your child. I know who he is as a young man and I know what fatherhood means to him and how important it is. This is an amazing chapter of his life, and I wish him nothing but [the best]," he told Entertainment Tonight. "I join in with everybody in well-wishes for their angel and the journey is an incredible one.

"You literally sit with your back against the wall for a certain amount of time. They get to the age where you want to build strength in them and you also want to instill discipline.
