John Stamos always wanted to become a father.
Sau khi đóng vai một người chú lấm lem trong bộ phim sitcom ăn khách Full House vào cuối những năm 80 và 90, John trở thành một người cha nhiều thập kỷ sau đó khi con trai ông, William “Billy” Christopher Stamos, chào đời. Anh ấy chia sẻ Billy, 6 tuổi – người được sinh ra khi John 54 tuổi – với vợ Caitlin McHugh Stamos, người mà anh ấy kết hôn vào năm 2018.
Hai tháng trước đám cưới của họ, John và Caitlin đã thông báo mang thai của họ dành riêng cho NHÂN DÂN. “Tôi sẽ là một người cha vui vẻ. Tôi đã luyện tập trong một thời gian dài,” anh nói, nói đùa, “Tôi đã thực hiện mọi schtick bạn có thể làm với một em bé trên TV … tất cả các bit và trò đùa và bịt miệng tã. Có lẽ tôi sẽ chỉ làm tất cả những thứ đó.”
Trong khi John luôn muốn có con, anh ấy không nghĩ rằng mình sẽ gặp đúng người, đó là cho đến khi Caitlin bước vào cuộc đời anh ấy. “Tôi đoán tôi đang chờ đợi một người vợ hoàn hảo, điều mà tôi có,” ngôi sao Secrets of Eden sau đó nói với Ryan Seacrest.
Kể từ khi Billy đến vào tháng 4 năm 2018, John đã nói, “Giấc mơ của tôi đã trở thành sự thật gấp 100 lần.” Cựu sinh viên Fuller House cũng chia sẻ rằng làm cha “tốt hơn” những gì anh tưởng tượng.
“Tôi muốn có con cả đời. Và tôi rất biết ơn, “anh ấy nói với NGƯỜI DÂN vào năm 2021. “
John cũng biết vợ mình sẽ là một “người mẹ tốt”, nói với NGƯỜI DÂN vào năm 2023, “Đây là rất nhiều điều để tôi nói. Cô ấy cũng tốt như mẹ tôi. Ý tôi là, khi tôi nhìn cô ấy, sự kiên nhẫn, lòng tốt mà cô ấy dành cho anh ấy, thật đẹp. Và tôi thực sự cố gắng không để nó trôi qua quá nhanh.”
Anh ấy cũng cập nhật về cậu bé 6 tuổi Billy khi quảng bá cuốn hồi ký If You Would Have Told Me, nói rằng, “Anh ấy rất quyến rũ và mọi người đến gặp anh ấy và nói, ‘Ôi, Chúa ơi, bạn thật đẹp trai. Anh thật quyến rũ”. Tôi giống như, ‘Đừng nói với anh ấy.’ “

Billy was born on April 10, 2018, in Los Angeles. Stamos announced the arrival of his first child with a photo of Billy resting on his chest. “From now on, the best part of me will always be my wife and my son,” John wrote alongside the sweet image.
Following his son’s birth, John revealed on On Air with Ryan Seacrest that Caitlin delivered Billy in “about 20 minutes.” He said, “It was weird. It was super fast.”
The Big Shot actor went on to joke, “A little baby came out and he looked just like [late comedian and close friend] Don Rickles.”
He was named after John’s dad

Billy is named after his paternal grandfather, Bill Stamos, who died in 1998. While announcing the birth of his son, John noted that Billy was “named after my father.”
Prior to welcoming his son, the TV star shared a photo of his late father, writing, “I will certainly fall short of the father my pop was, but — I’m going to give it my all!”
John joked about Billy’s first words

At a red carpet event for The Little Mermaid Live in 2019, John joked that Billy’s first two words were “trust fund.”
“He has a good sense of humor,” the actor said of his son. “That’s the milestone I like.”
At the same event, John told Entertainment Tonight that Billy was talking. “He says Coco a lot,” John shared. “He wakes up in the mornings saying ‘Coco’ and then he says — Lilo is his dog — ‘Lilo, Lilo, Coco, Coco, mama, mama.’ ”
He’s a Disney kid

John and Caitlin’s son has inherited their love for Disney. The pair, who got engaged at Disneyland, took their then-7-month-old son to Walt Disney World for the first time in 2018 because John was hosting the Candle Light Procession at Epcot.
In June 2021, the actor told PEOPLE that Billy is “definitely a Disney kid,” adding, “it’s wonderful to see Billy get excited about stuff now.”
Apart from visiting Disney parks and sailing on the Disney Wish, Billy also appreciates Disney films. “His first movie he loved that he watched was Coco. [He watched it] before he could barely talk,” John recalled. “He was like ‘Coco, Coco.’ He loves Coco, he loves Moana. He loves those animated [films].”

Billy attended his first day of school in September 2021. John marked the milestone with a video featuring photos of Billy from over the years set to The Beach Boys song “When I Grow Up (To Be a Man).”
“First day of school. I’m not crying, you are,” he captioned the post on Instagram.
The actor was emotional again in 2022 when Billy started a new school. “One of us is starting his first day at school. And the other is doing everything in his power not to cry,” John wrote on Instagram.
He’s joined his dad on stage

In March 2023, John, who’d been performing with The Beach Boys, shared a special moment on stage with his son during a gig. John posted a photo of the two from the evening, which showed Billy standing next to John as he strung the guitar.
The actor has expressed his desire for Billy to get into music. He admitted to Entertainment Tonight in 2021, “Well, as much as I try to steer him towards the music room, he loves to go outside and throw balls and hit things.”
However, after Billy “broke his wrist on the monkey bars” in 2022, John jokingly told E! News that they were “trying to keep him away from sports.”
He is being taught to be “loving and kind”

John and Caitlin are teaching their son to give back. In October 2022, the actor spoke to E! News about laying “the foundation of being loving and kind” for Billy.
“I think we’re pretty good examples, my wife and I,” John said. “The hard thing is he lives a pretty privileged life. [My wife’s] great, she takes him down to feed the homeless in Orange County and we take him on stuff like that. We try to show him it’s about service and giving back.”
A few months earlier, Caitlin shared photos from her and Billy’s visit with families of an Illumination Foundation house. The mother-son duo brought them dinner, gifts and activities. “It’s important to me to not just give listeners of the podcast action to take, but to walk the walk myself,” Caitlin penned on Instagram. “I’m also able to see the direct impact @ifhomeless has and can feel more comfortable asking you to support them too. I also love being able to share all this with my son.”
He is a Full House fan

John credits his late friend and costar Bob Saget for Billy’s obsession with Full House. The month after Saget’s death in January 2022, John shared a video of his son watching the show on TV.
“Billy was never interested in Full House and I was perfectly fine with that. Bob died, now he’s obsessed!” he wrote in the caption.
John added, “I blame Bob. (And nanny, @tayloraldrich).”
He celebrated John’s 60th birthday in 2023

Billy was by his dad’s side on his milestone 60th birthday in September 2023. The actor celebrated his big day with a heartwarming video of the two laying together in bed. “Do you know how happy I am that I turned 60, and I have such a wonderful son like you?” John asked Billy, who replied, “So happy.”
The then-5-year-old adorably told his dad that he doesn’t look 60. “You look baby,” Billy said. The Full House star also asked his son, “Do you say anything about me in your prayers?” Billy answered, “Of course.”
John’s video ended with a montage of family moments set to audio of Gene Wilder from Willy Wonka and the Chocolate Factory saying, “Don’t forget what happened to the man who suddenly got everything he always wanted — He lived happily ever after.”
Alongside the post, John wrote, “I’m right where I’m supposed to be at 60! Thank you for all the birthday wishes and love. I hope to give back to you what you have given me, a wonderful life.”
