Slater welcomed his first two children Eliana, 22, and Jaden, 25, during his marriage to journalist Ryan Haddon.
In 2019, after the birth of his youngest, Slater said People He enjoyed seeing her newborn baby “really” recognize him and smile at him.
“It used to be involuntary,” he said enthusiastically. “Now she sees it and she smiles, and that’s a wonderful milestone.”
He also joked at the time about how “complicated” parenting has become since the 1990s.
“I thought your kid could get a few germs and be fine, and their immune system would build up. But now you have to wash everything,” he mused on The Late Late Show with James Corden.
He continued: ‘The bottles break into eight different pieces and it’s a puzzle that you have to put together.’

The exciting news comes just three months after Brittany revealed she was pregnant while attending the Los Angeles premiere of his film Unfrosted (out April 2024).
The artist admitted that the newborn phase was just “a constant chore” of constant cleaning and “late bedtimes.”
He further boasted that his wife was “pleased to see” that he “had some skills” thanks to raising his two eldest children.
“I had something to contribute, and I knew how to change diapers,” he explained. “She didn’t expect me to be as involved as I was.”
Slater and his wife secretly married in a Miami-area courthouse in December 2013.
The couple celebrated their engagement in 2012 with a New Year’s Eve party attended by hundreds of friends and family.
