Pete Davidson Reveals Parenting Advice From 'Best Dad Ever' MGK
Pete Davidson revealed the sweet parenting advice he got from his close friend Machine Gun Kelly as he expects baby No. 1 with his girlfriend, Elsie Hewitt.
'He's the best dad ever,' Davidson, 31, told People of Kelly, 35, during the Los Angeles premiere of The Pickup on Sunday, July 27. 'He flies back and forth to Cleveland twice a week just to see his daughter play volleyball. And he's just always with his kids, and it's just such a beautiful thing to see.'
Kelly is the father to daughters Casie, 16, with ex Emma Cannon, and Saga, 4 months, with ex Megan Fox.
Davidson added that being a father is Kelly's "favorite thing." He continued, 'And he's like, 'This is going to be your favorite thing,'" the Saturday Night Live alum said of Kelly's views of fatherhood. "So I'm really excited."
When it comes to his stance of becoming a parent, Davidson told the outlet that he's "just excited to take care of the little one."
"The second I found out the news, I was like, 'Oh wow, what I do is just a job,'" he recalled. "I realized I was kind of basing my happiness on work, which is ridiculously unhealthy. So it gave me this weird sense of calmness, where this is just a job and now I have someone to do it for.'

Why Lydia Plath Was 'Shocked' When Her Husband Zac Suggested 'Not Kissing Until Our Wedding Day'
"I was just shocked in my seat because it's something that I had wanted, but I didn't want it to be a legalistic thing," Plath explainedNEED TO KNOW Lydia Plath shared how she and husband Zac Wyse decided to wait for their wedding to have their first kiss during an appearance on the July 30 episode of The Jinger and Jeremy Podcast The couple, who got married in February after six months of dating, explained that they both wanted to save physical intimacy for marriage Plath said they "experienced so much joy" and got to know each other better by not kissing while they datedLydia Plath is reflecting on how it felt to wait to have her first kiss with husband Zac Wyse at their wedding. Nearly six months after tying the knot, the couple shared the impact that saving physical intimacy for marriage has had on their relationship. Plath revealed that Wyse introduced the idea the same night he asked her to be his girlfriend, and she was quick to say "yes" to both. 'Zac was just like, 'This is really random and this is not something I've ever thought about, but I just keep [feeling] this unction from the Holy Spirit to just ask you what you'd think about saving our first kiss for our wedding day. Like, if that comes, not kissing until our wedding day,'' she recalled on The Jinger and Jeremy Podcast. 'I was just shocked in my seat because it's something that I had wanted, but I didn't want it to be a legalistic thing. I didn't want it to be a rule we had to follow because of X, Y and Z.' 'I wanted him to initiate it,' she added of why she didn't bring it up first. 'I wanted the guy to initiate it because it was in his heart — because if he was going to be the one leading, he would have to have that desire. So when he said that, I was just like, 'Funny you ask.'' Wyse explained that 'it wasn't something serious' when he first asked Plath to wait for their first kiss. Rather, he said it was a sign of him 'wanting to honor' her and 'be intentional' as they got to know each other. 'I want it to mean something, I want it to have purpose,' he remembered thinking. Despite being on the same page, the pair said they 'took a few days' to be sure that they were 'ready to make this commitment' and had the discipline to do so. 'On top of that, to clarify, we both had our first kiss in previous relationships,' Wyse noted. 'And so for this to come up was truly because it was lingering on my heart for so long. I was just like, 'This is different. There's a purity about her. There's an honoring I want to have towards her that leads me to keep thinking about this, and so I'm going to bring it up to her to see if this is something that I can truly honor her in.' They acknowledged that some people who withhold physical intimacy 'go from zero to 100 super quick after you're married,' but they were different. 'There's such a beauty about it in respecting the other, and it truly is a great physical boundary,' Wyse explained. 'Because then there were so many other ways that we were able to build trust for one another and just enjoy different moments because we're not kissing and because we're not falling into different physical things. It's like, no, we get to dance or have more enjoyable moments like running around or frolicking or doing whatever because we're not kissing." "And not to say that kissing is bad," he continued. "But it was interesting to find the alternatives in it.'

Plath agreed, saying she cherishes all the memories they made while dating when most couples would have been "making out." 'I can't tell you how many times we experienced so much joy that we were just like, 'This is even better than kissing right now,'" she said. "'Like, I don't know where this joy is coming from, but I feel so close to you right now because of the conversations we've had, because of how intentional we've been.''

Eight months after revealing his cancer diagnosis, the actor, 48, candidly explained how he talked to his children, whom he shares with wife Kimberly Van Der Beek, about his health journey. 'I'm far from an expert, but our approach was just to be as honest as possible, as honest to the degree of their understanding, right?

The Dawson's Creek alum said his children "can sense that Dad's having a tough day." "They know if Dad's in pain.

Van Der Beek advised other parents who may be in the same situation to allow themselves to be surprised by their children's resiliency. "When you tell them what you're doing, and you tell them the approach, they can see it and they can feel it, and I think it's also your journey is their journey," he said, noting that parents should allow their children to show up for them emotionally. "I have kids making me tea. 'Dad, what do you need?' There's been a lot of beauty that's come out of it, but I would love to save everybody this journey, which is why I'm saying get screened," said Van Der Beek. As for how Van Der Beek is doing, he said he is "feeling great." "Today, I'm feeling great, yeah. It's been a journey. There are just so many ups and downs and so many unknowns.
