19 Heartwarming Pics Of Celeb Dads With Their Kids

by Michelle McGahan

In honor of Father's Day this upcoming Sunday (June 19), it is only necessary that we round up some of the sweetest photos of celeb dads with their kids (think of it like scrapbook, only with more hashtags and less cheesy stickers). One of the most heartwarming images in Hollywood is seeing photos of star parents with their children. You know, dressing up for Halloween, walking the red carpet, sharing a sweet snuggle on the couch, looking at each other lovingly, most likely accidentally embarrassing them somehow... the camera captures it all. And now, it's time to honor the celeb dads who make these moments and memories with their kids last a lifetime.

This Father's Day, forget the tie. Forget the lawnmower. Forget the brand-new barbecue grill and those inevitably lame dad jokes (sorry, dads everywhere). Instead, peep the sweet celeb father-child bonding moments that will give you and your dad the warm fuzzies — I promise.

From Chris Pratt to Taylor Hanson, Barack Obama to Kanye West, David Beckham to Louis Tomlinson — and every adorable star father in between — check out 19 photos of celeb dads with their kids, guaranteed to warm your heart. Peep the sweet photos below.
