While Jonathan Scott never expected that he would be an “insta-dad” to two kids, he always knew he had the knack for being a father. Speaking with Today, he said he prides himself in having the qualities a model dad would have. “I always knew I would be a great dad — former clown, magician, I can build stuff — and it’s been incredible,” he shared. “You see your life transform, your priorities become your kids, and when they have a performance that they’re doing at school, or working on some of their homework, or whatever it might be, it’s a joy.”
Jonathan also shared that he realized that he truly connected with Elise and Charlie when the former went home from school with a family picture in tow, and surprisingly, he had been in it. “Our youngest came back from school with a picture that he had drawn, and in the picture, he has Mommy and Daddy and Jonathan and his sister and our puppies,” he added. “I think that was when I was like, that’s pretty sweet, because the way we think of it is, he has the benefit of a ‘bonus dad.'”
