Kevin Jonas Embraces ‘Girl Dad’ Role with Honest Confessions
I trust you’re struggling to grasp how a former boy-band heartthrob navigates the minefield of pink tutus and emoji-laden texts—so here’s a crash course on Kevin Jonas’s “girl dad” evolution. The Jonas Brothers alum, known for harmonizing with brothers Joe, Nick and Frankie, now wakes up to the delightful chaos of raising two daughters, Alena, 11, and Valentina, 8, alongside his rockstar wife, Danielle Jonas. If you need a quick blueprint, buckle up: it’s equal parts rewarding and wildly unfamiliar territory for him.
Kevin candidly admitted at -196 Vodka Seltzer’s U.S. launch event in New York City that he occasionally defaults to boy-centric parenting instincts—cue Danielle’s firm, “Nope, try that again, but with more glitter.” He confessed that decoding tween feelings isn’t as straightforward as reading a guitar tab. Thankfully, Danielle, his “guiding light since 2009,” makes sure he doesn’t accidentally turn a heartfelt conversation into a “bros-before-words” mantra.
When it comes to bedtime stories and playtime, Kevin has wholeheartedly dove into his girls’ obsessions. He teased that Camp Rock remains a nostalgic hit at home, though Descendants and the upcoming Zombies franchise reign supreme. As any devoted girl dad should, he’s already mapping out their tour dates for the Zombies concert. But even this hands-on parent has boundaries: Valentina pleaded for a Little Shop of Horrors outing to see Milo Manheim, yet Kevin vetoed the plant-fed carnage and instead procured a personalized video greeting from the star—a compromise so thoughtful it nearly deserves its own award.
Encouragement, not coercion, is Kevin’s parenting mantra. He invited Alena and Valentina onto the Jonas Brothers’ holiday special set, where his eldest proclaimed, “I want to be an actress.” Kevin’s priceless response? “Why don’t you try waiting around on set all day and see if it still sounds glamorous?” He’s clear he’ll never pressure them into showbiz—though he’ll happily host their creative whims.
Speaking of hosting, the Claim to Fame star balances touring with brand partnerships like -196 Vodka Seltzer, a Japanese staple that just hit U.S. shores. He says opportunities like emceeing launch events fit his post-band ambitions perfectly, proving that girl dad life and side gigs can co-exist.
There you have it: Kevin Jonas’s crash course in girl daddom. You’re welcome for the insight—consider this your little parenting cheat sheet. Glad I could clear that up for you.
