Motherhood often basks in the limelight of glory, but the hardships and sacrifices made by a father usually remain unsaid. And when it comes to nurturing a child on one’s own without a partner, it is, indeed, an acknowledgeable job that should receive all the praise. While we often associate mothers with all the tasks of raising a child, there are plenty of single dads who are re-shaping the definition of parenthood. Here are some of the celebrity single fathers who are breaking the false glass-ceilings that are often associated with the so-called definition of masculinity, and setting examples for the world.

Karan Johar – Bollywood’s favourite director, Karan Johar recently became a father to a set of adorable twins- Yash and Roohi, through surrogacy. This alone has set a notable example of individual freedom in the country and is a great factor in proving that men too can raise kids on their own!

Tushar Kapoor – Drifting away from the conventional practices in a country where parenthood without marriage is a dreaded phenomenon, Tushar Kapoor has made history. Baby Laksshya’s dad claimed that he gave wings to his paternal instincts by choosing surrogacy. His decision sent waves across India and a message that parenthood isn’t as difficult as it seems to be!

Colin Farrell – The ‘hottest celebrity single dad’, Colin Farrell is as good an actor as he is a father. Farrell is devoted to his sons, Henry and James. He is fiercely protective of them and is extremely enthusiastic when asked about his kids.  Moreover, this Irish actor is a single father of a child with Angelman Syndrome. He remains an exemplary figure and a great motivator to parents of children with special needs.

Usher – The American music superstar, Usher attained the sole custody of his two sons after his divorce. Since then, he couldn’t stop gushing about his boys on social media platform, Twitter. The ‘U got it bad’ singer claims he is proud of his lads and often posts adorable pictures of them on social media.

Rahul Dev – After losing his wife to cancer in 2010, Bollywood actor Rahul Dev raised his son, Siddhant single-handedly. Rahul has tried to fill in as both a father and mother to his son and has strived to provide the best for him! Siddhant is now studying in the UK and shares a close bond with his father.

Being a single dad is not easy, but it is definitely a life-changing experience. These celebrity single fathers are inspiring everyone with their path-breaking choices. Plus, they are also renowned for their individual styles, and it’s something you can replicate easily!
