Justin Theroux gushed from excitement when talking about being a first time father at 54 with his wife Nicole Brydon Bloom, 32.
The actor provided an update on how he's adapting to the big change on Today 3rd Hour on April 23.
It's only been three weeks since his wife's birth and he lovingly supported his her on air by sharing: "As we all probably know, my wife is doing the Herculean task of the feeding, so that takes precedence."
Al Roker inquired: "So compared to what you thought this was going to be, how's it compared to what it is?"

Justin got sentimental and replied: "It's so much better and of course, I've been told by other fathers, 'wait til you see this child – you're gonna fall in love.' You still always have that moment of like, 'is that really gonna happen,' and then the minute he appears, your whole life just starts to revolve around this thing, and your heart just opens up in a beautiful way. I'm just happy, really happy."
Craig Melvin interjected: "You got any parenting advice yet," as Justin immediately shut down the question, saying: "No, None. No. It's all improvisation as you know."

He revealed to E! News: "I'm in heaven. It’s so hard to even encapsulate what it feels like! It's the most wonderful thing that's ever happened to me, I can't think of anything that tops it."
Date night
Justin attended the Devil Wears Prada 2 premiere with his wife, and the entertainer revealed that the duo couldn't wait to reunite with their little bundle of joy right afterwards, saying: "As soon as the credits roll, we're out!"
On the red carpet, Nicole donned a floor-length black dress and Justin sported a navy blue suit, with a white button-up shirt below.

Fans loved the tribute post and flocked to the comments. One person wrote: "Congratulations on your lil Peanut! Wishing you both all the happiness you can handle."
A second fan added: "Mom and dad." Another commenter wrote: "Well said! Pregnancy and postpartum are hard."

The duo first met back in 2022 during a mutual friend's party. Justin proposed in 2024 while the pair were on vacation in Italy and they tied the knot in Mexico last year.
