Washington [US], June 20 : Actor Henry Golding opened up about his most important and special role to date: Fatherhood and revealed how it has changed him.

After keeping details of their little one under tight wraps, the 34-year-old actor recently discussed his family life, reported E! News.
In a recent interview with Good Morning America, Henry candidly shared how his life has changed, for the better, after becoming a first-time dad.
"It puts everything in perspective. It has allowed me to really kind of focus in on what really matters in life," he explained about parenthood.
'The Last Christmas' actor also noted how he and his wife wanted to keep their baby girl out of the spotlight. However, they both eventually had a change of heart.
"We were like, 'Ah, we don't want to put her on social media too much,'" he admitted, before adding a conversation his wife had with him, "'I just want to share my joy of this tiny little person that's brought so much joy to our lives. There's nothing wrong with that.'"
As he described of Liv, "I think she felt really comfortable, of course, sort of sharing her experience. It's so important for her to share her experience as a new mother, especially all the challenges that come with that."
Henry is celebrating his first Father's Day today. But he isn't the only famous dad to mark the special occasion. Celebrities like Joe Jonas, Jason Derulo, Zayn Malik, Kit Harrington, Frankie Muniz, among many others are celebrating the occasion too.
