A Conversation with Ronnie Radke Pt.2: Fatherhood And Relationships

[@spookykiddmel]

last year I met him. he was alone. on Hollywood blvd. people passing by not recognizing him. I did. as I was getting closer he was on his phone so I stood back he noticed me and attended to me. we had like a 5minute conversation I'd never thoughg that would happen.. and this dude. is so fucking down to earth. I didnt like his last album. but seeing who he is I really fucking love him.

[@samdragon4768]

what do you guys talk about?

[@mitchihontas4168]

Ohhhh ❤️😫

[@xoxoeyecandioxox8891]

Real recognizes real, he wasn’t noticed by the sheep. It just so happened one of us was amongst them 😉

[@RendezvouDoo]

Thats awesome. He seems super grounded at this pt in his life.

[@misogikumagawa8539]

Can we just take a minute to respect this man. He went from a full on party machine, to a person who wants to start a family. He's willing to take a step back from the highlights and be there for his wife and daughter. This man deserves every bit of respect we can muster.

[@DCgames12345]

The only thing about his "wife" is that they were never married and Ronnie cheated so they also aren't together

[@SweeetSpice]

@@DCgames12345 he cheated?? Not saying you’re lying but what’s your source? Him and Paige seem very happy

i saw him live and "met" him at warped this year. he's honestly not a horrid guy like the media says. i love him!

[@AidenkA]

I met him in around 08 when he was still with Escape the Fate and when he was an asshole and high all the time, but yes he wasnt so bad back then either...I mean I honestly dont understand how hateful and cruel people can be.

[@theparadiddlydoo2771]

They've got good reasons to be "hateful" and "cruel", do you guys realise what he's done and how unacceptable his actions were? They don't just slip under the radar.

[@AidenkA]

I'm not a dude but that doesn't matter... no people should not even be considered with his lifestyle....it's his life and he makes his own choices, he's a big boy... but of course everyone is in his business and not just him, I'm talking about musicians, actors, celebrities in general and that's just sad and unnecessary 

[@theparadiddlydoo2771]

AidenkA Yeah well there's not much he can do about it when the results of his actions go viral. It was sad and completely unnecessary for him to do all those bad things

[@AidenkA]

BounceTo TheBeat that's life, we're all just humans and we make bad choices sometimes, it's important to learn from them and try not make the same mistake twice ^^

[@russellstarmore3675]

he rlly does seem like a very interesting person to meet and that's not sarcastic

[@morganrink9710]

i love the style of this interview because it makes ronnie seem like a normal person in the sense that he does everyday stuff just like everyone else. and im not trying to say he is or isn't a normal person. it is just i look up to ronnie and he is kind of glorified in my eyes so i don't really imagine him doing the same type of stuff i do.

[@EmsJems1]

"Because I was crazy..." "I was a nut job." Lol his voice.

[@jessikalais2243]

Ronnie, congratulations for not only career success, but altogether life success and beautiful relationships. You have a good heart and it shows.

[@elaina37]

I had a conversation with a friend who's a HUGE one direction fan , I'm into more idk "punk" or "rock" music , so we often have arguments over music due to our very different music tastes . She was talking to me about Ronnie , calling him crazy names , and being very rude . I personally love Ronnie and his music , so I got quite offended. So I told her "well atleast Ronnie and his fans can except that he's having a baby , and be some what respectful to his (then) fiancé , Louis can't even admit to getting a girl pregnant , and watches as his fans send some poor woman hate for getting pregnant when he was half the reason why she is " I haven't talked to her since July ...

[@elaina37]

*Had a baby

[@jensonthompson4767]

+Elaina Well you put that bitch in her place

[@isabellekathleen167]

I love One Direction and "punk" or "rock" music. You don't understand that the reason Louis never admitted to having the baby is because he didn't get her pregnant...its a publicity stunt. So actually know what you're talking about before you talk bad about a band that you have no idea about.

[@joehorzempa7175]

Yea I can vouch for that I dated one of his ex girlfriends when I lived in vegas and actually got to hang out with ETF before they got big. . I know most of you won't and don't belive me but true story I broke up with her because she went crazy on me throwing knifes scissors things of that nature so yea he has some crazy ex girlfriends

Who knew that 1:18 would be in an FIR music video 5 years later lol

[@SophieLA8]

Did anyone else see how his entire demeanor & energy changed while he was talking about his baby and fiancé? He seems so happy about it all; he was radiant when he was talking about them. He's been through and given so much for what he believes in. It is truly a gift to simply see such pure joy in a person, especially when they truly deserve it. Good luck, Mr. Radke, and my sincere congratulations to you, your fiancé, and your soon-to-be baby girl... I wish you all the best that life can offer.

[@RendezvouDoo]

7 yrs ago, this lil docu reminded me of my musician friend. He had a lil girl. It does change u. Sooo sweet. Lol my fav. Part when he said hes glad his future wife isnt the crazy type. Tbh i feel like sometimes thats a sign of maturity, when u can refrain yourself. I used 2b a lil more crazy. Its all about growing up.

[@jasomemcvay6338]

well shes lucky to have ronnie and im glad he found someone thats a very good person to and for him...

[@NameFails]

They're not together anymore, He cheated on her before they had willow.

[@theparadiddlydoo2771]

***** I still can't believe that he did such a thing. :(

Tell me about it, he really inspired me to turn my life around and when i heard he did that, well it was a massive kick in the teeth.

[@TheChubbybunny1]

***** we all fuck up.

[@theparadiddlydoo2771]

TheChubbybunny1 Yeah but people shouldn't be making those sort of mistakes, especially rockstars. The fact that he already had a "girlfriend that was pregnant makes it even worse. I like FIR's music but that was a very serious mistake that he made. Hopefully he doesn't do it with the girlfriend that he's got now.

[@kylie-chan]

i really really like this interview i feel like its the first one were he has just been him self he looks so uncomfortable in the rest ive seen. thank you ronnie for giving us a little perspective into your life :)

I'm quite loving the new Ronnie. Seems grounded and decent and into life and music in a more authentic way. He is a talented dude. An interview while he is just driving took away some of that self conscious vibe you can get with interviews.

[@agentofchaos4437]

a little un nerving that they have Ronnie being interviewed and trying to focus on which lane he's in and where he's going, he handled it well.

[@ppayne95]

One of the few famous people to give their child a normal name, good job Ronnie. Listening to the interview, I think it in a way gives ways for people to relate to him. I can't relate at all to my favorite bands really, but the music is great and they seem like good people. I knew he had been a DB before, but he seems to be cleaning up well and getting to that place he needs to be in with his life.

[@BeautyQueenCaroline]

Ronnie, though you may not read this, you are...words cant even explain. You are my role model x1000000. You have inspired me to be a better person. I used to cry because I hated seeing you go through pain. Until I one day out of nowhere realized that crying will not make you notice me, stop feeling pain, or come knockin' on my door. So I stopped crying, stopped being sad, and realized that if I work hard enough, I may one day meet you and tell you this in person. I love to sing, and.

[@SashaTheConqueror]

Dude, it's so cool that he's talking about his life in front of fans. Like that cannot be easy (^case and point^). It kinda makes me smile b/c it sounds like me and my sponsor when we talk. it's so awesome to see Ronnie getting better. :)

[@charleigh1501]
