Taye Diggs calls his wife a “warrior”
On a recent appearance on The Ellen DeGeneres Show actor Taye Diggs opened up about the day his son was born.
He said, “There was something going on that morning, so we knew this is going to be a special day.” Sure enough, it was the day.
“In the movies and on TV, you always hear everyone’s rushing, but everyone is telling me when it actually happens, there is no need to rush… I was constantly telling myself, ‘Relax, relax, be cool,’” he said.
Of his wife’s decision to have a natural birth, Taye said, “No drugs. She is a warrior.”
He added, “I was holding her hands and cheering her on. I said I would look two times. I would look when the baby was crowning, and I wanted to look right when [son] Walker came out. And then when he came out, all the sudden it was like my inner gangster came out. I was like, ‘Yeah baby, that’s what I’m talkin’ about, that’s my boy!’”
