Still, Shelton said there is “definitely nothing easy” about being a stepdad duringan interview with KFROG’sThe Ride with Kimo & Heatherin February. He revealed he takes his job “very serious.”
“I don’t know if it’s as hard or harder or not as hard as being an actual, biological parent, you know?” he said. “I have a stepfather in my life who’s one of my heroes. I love my stepfather and I look up to him and he’s like a father to me, so I have a good inspiration in my life for how to do this and the kind of stepdad I want to be.”
He added: “But I also have a blast with it, I’m not gonna lie. I don’t take it so serious that I’m not enjoying this time because I really am, especially now that we’re five years into this thing. I can’t imagine my life without these kids now.”
