In the romantic comedy Life As We Know It, Josh Duhamel plays a new dad, a role he says he’d love to have in real life. According to People, Josh says that getting the chance to play a father is what “initially drew me to” the role. During the New York premiere at the Ziegfeld, he opened up even more saying, that he has “always had a real fondness for kids.” In terms of his wife, he says, “She’ll be a great mom … She got to meet [costar Katherine Heigl’s daughter] Naleigh on set. It was great.” Maybe this is a hint of what’s to come for him and Fergie in the very near future!

First dates are always hit or miss. At a promotional press conference for their upcoming romantic comedy, Life As We Know It, Katherine Heigl and Josh Duhamel, both married, reminisced about past dating disasters, according to People. Whereas dating in general scared Duhamel, Heigl, married three years to singer Josh Kelley, spoke of an awkward date with a personal trainer. “He took me to Sizzler and gave me his head shot and asked me if I could get him in my agency,” recalled the actress. Although this was ultimately the deal breaker, she also went on to notice his shaved legs. We can only wonder if she stuck around long enough for dessert!
