“I wish I would’ve had kids sooner. I love it, and I want to have 11 of them, but my wife is like, ‘Two,’ and I’m like, ‘Four?’ and she’s like, ‘Two,’ so we’ll see how that goes,” he says.

According to Devine, there was a point in time when he was anxious to become a first-time father.

“People try to scare you, but don’t get scared, men,” he cautioned. “I know every guy, they always have some uncle or some friend who’s like, ‘Get ready for your life to be over,’ and they try to punk you out of it, but I’m loving every second of it.”

One part of being a dad that Devine loves — and is surprised he enjoys so much — is getting to change his son’s diapers.

“Turns out I don’t mind changing a diaper. It doesn’t bother me even a little bit. I find it hilarious,” he explains. “This guy poops, man, and every day it’s a new adventure with those poops.”
