Studies of brain scans and recordings of the parents’ daily interactions with their kids show that fathers with toddler daughters are more attentive and responsive to those daughters’ needs than fathers with toddler sons are to the needs of those sons.
Dads may engage differently with their daughters and sons, but both are equally loved. Still, there's a reason why dads and daughters are just so adorable together. Just look at these celebity dads and their daughters1
Drew Arellano and Alana
Drew is a new girl dad who's been sharing photos of his little princess. He first shared Alana's photo after birth, and now during her first-month milestone.
Erwann Heussaff and Dahlia
We rarely see photos of Erwan and Dahlia together, aside from those we see in Instagram Stories. But when we see one, it makes our hearts melt.
Nico Bolzico and Thylane
Nico, a.k.a. El Padre, is always the funny man, so to see him shed some tears in Solenn's Father's Day video for him is refreshingly sweet.
Troy Montero and Rocket
You know you have a daddy's girl when she doesn't want to share daddy's hugs. Rocket appears to be crying when she saw her kuya cuddling with dad Troy Montero. Cute!
Philmar Alipayo and Lilo
We know from Andi Eigenmann that Philmar is a hands-on dad. We love that Philmar is bringing Lilo to the ocean more often. The little girl is a water baby for sure.
JC Santos and River
We didn't know untill his wife was about to give birth that JC was going to be a dad. We're glad he didn't keep their photos to himself because they're too kilig.
Ryan Agoncillo, Yohan, and Luna
Snippets of the Agoncillo household when Ryan plays the guitar and Ate Yohan sings and little Luna chimes in with her scene-stealer antics. So sweet.
Dingdong Dantes and Zia
It's not often nowadays to see a photo of Dingdong and Zia together because daddy always has his camera pointed towards his dalaginding. Zia is her father's muse (just like mom!)
Hayden Kho, Jr. and Scarlet Snow
We rarely see activity on Scarlet Snow's social media nowadays since she's growing up fast, but we always love these dad and daughter carbon copy shots.
Doug Kramer, Kendra, and Scarlett
Doug has always been game to
(perhaps against suitors?).Kean Cipriano and Stellar
"Kahit alam kong hindi tayo mabubuhay habambuhay... Basta importante, alam mo na andito lang si Daddy, ano man mangyare," Kean wrote.
JC Intal, Lucia, and Carmen
According to mom Bianca Gonzalez, Lucia and Carmen are taking after their dad JC's artistic expression.
John Prats, Feather, and Forest
When baby Forest is a little older she'll join this goofy dad and daughter duo.
Paolo Contis and Summer
Little Summer is taking after her dad's comedic chops. Their vidoes are always fun to watch.
Geoff Eigenmann and Arabella
The panganay and the unica hija (so far) make funny faces with their dad. In a few months, they'll add a new baby into the mix.
GP Reyes, Olivia, and Amelia
Who says you can't play sports when you have daughters? Oli and Amelia love their time with dad!
