Josh Duhamel shared insight into his life as a father in the 50s

In a recent chat with PEOPLEThe transformer actor revealed that his one year old son, Shepherd, is his motivation behind to remain in shape.

“For so many years I probably didn’t really eat, I probably drank too much, and it hurt me in many ways,” he says. “I wasn’t as clear as I needed and I wasn’t focused on the right things.”

However, Duhamel would now live a life of healthy habits for her children.

“I want to be able to run around with my kids, I want to roll around in dirt with them. I want to get out there and water skiing, jet skiing and skiing and playing basketball and football, all things,” said the proud father.

While walking over his little child, he said, “He is unlimited, very, very active. He started going early – in his ninth month.”

“He’s so funny. He loves to throw a ball and tries to play catch. And I won’t sit on the couch and see him I will get down on the floor with him to play,” Duhamel added.

It is relevant to mention that Josh Duhamel shares a year old son Shepherd with wife Audra Mari and his 11-year-old son Axl with his ex Fergie.
