“He gave me a huge gift; he died in my arms. To see that kind of factual example of mortality,” Bradley tells Bear, as he hangs off the side of a canyon in Wyoming.
He then added that having that happen put things in perspective: “I definitely had a nihilistic attitude after, for a little bit. Just like, wow I’m gonna die. It was not great for a little bit until I realized I had to just embrace who I actually am and try to find peace with that. And then it sorta evened out.”
Bradley and Bear then discuss how that event in his life shaped the way he approaches fatherhood himself now.
“I mean you learn from your predecessor’s mistakes and I’ll make tons that hopefully Lea will learn from and then being rigorous with myself to grow,” he shared. “To help unburden her with any of my bullsh**.”
Bradley shares Lea with model Irina Shayk.
Just recently, Irina opened up about raising Lea together with Bradley.
