Melissa McCarthy and Ben Falcone are not only well-known comedians, but proud parents of two teenage girls. And while speaking with The View, Falcone talked about being a papa to two teenage daughters, and how while most hate the teen years, he adores it.
“I tell people I have teenage girls, and they go, ‘Ah man. How’s it in your house.’ and I’m like, ‘It’s great,’ ” he said on the show. “They’re really nice. They’re amazing young people. I feel good to know that these young people are going to grow up and take over the world.”
We truly love to see parents who adore the teen years; it’s so refreshing to see after so many parents hating those years for their kids.
For those who don’t know, McCarthy and Falcone originally met in the 1990s when she was a freshman in college and he was in high school. However, they officially became friends in 1998 after crossing paths again in a comedy class. They started dating a few years later and married on Oct 8, 2005.
They later welcomed two daughters into the world named Vivian, born in May 5, 2007, and Georgette, born in Feb. 22, 2010.
In a previous interview with People, McCarthy talked about her “fun” persona called “Midway Mom.” She said, “For no reason, I lost my mind this week and met someone’s dog who’s like a little wiener dog. We have two dogs and they all want a third one. And I said, ‘Absolutely not. We’re not doing this. This is crazy. We already have two dogs.’ And suddenly I called the girls and I was like, ‘Guess who’s getting a wiener dog?’ And they’re like, ‘Midway Mom!’”
