'Sexiest Dad Alive' Ryan Reynolds Gets Real About Having A Daughter

"It's the best."

People Magazine has just given Ryan Reynolds the title of "Sexiest Dad Alive," and the "Deadpool" star has some sweet things to say about fatherhood.

Reynolds, who welcomed a daughter named James with Blake Lively in December 2014, described having a little girl as "a dream come true" in an interview with the magazine. He also said little James stole her dad's heart on day one.

"I don’t have to prepare to be wrapped around my daughter’s finger," he said. "I have been wrapped around her little finger since the day she plopped out into this world."

Reynolds is known to crack jokes on Twitter about parenthood and shares his thoughts on life as a dad with his more than 1 million followers.

In his interview, he did reveal one thing that he kept to himself before welcoming baby James into the world.

"I never admitted it out loud, to myself or my wife, but I really wanted a little girl," he told People. "It's the best."

People's new issue featuring its full interview with Ryan Reynolds hits newsstands on Friday.
