How Antonio Banderas Changed Stepdaughter Dakota Johnson’s Life | Rumour Juice

[@xoxo-dr8df]

I think the fact that he did not expect Dakota to pay tribute to him the way she did at the awards ceremony speaks so much about Antonio. He doesn't do things to be rewarded later or get good words from it, he just do them because for him it is the fundamental thing to do -- love, care, understand, be present. What a wonderful person.

That’s imo weird that he wants to dictate what you call him. He can be a huge influential figure in your like and even be seen as a father figure or even a dad but he definitely should not be deeming himself as such or demanding to be called so. Strikes me as weird or insecure.

Antonio, the kids grew up with you. 20 years is a long time. You will be in thier hearts as long as they live.

[@THREESISTERS15]

The way he took care of his own father at the end of his life is total definition of a real son.

[@i.velazquez729]

I love this. My only issue is the additon of "former" to the title step-dad because of the divorce, especially since Banderas has been a part of her life for 20 plus years. A biological parent is not referred to as a "former" father or mother after a divorce regardless of the time married before the child arrived or if they aren't active in the child's life. My personal belief is that once you open your life and heart to a child and count them a one of your own then that should always be their part in your life.

He took me & my brother in as if we were his own kids. I love him for that b/c I married a man with a child & it's hard. I miss him everyday. He was a great dad.

Antonio is a good person, who really cares about people. We knew well this in Spain, long before he jumped into Hollywood. So he did his best with his new wife and family: invested love, support, time and fun with them. I expected that from him, knowing his good nature, because it is fair and right thing to do. And of course, acting like that provides reward, as you receive what you have given, and makes you happy.This should be the rule, not the exception. Don't you think?

[@raquelcoronel3567]

When I was married to my first husband, we decided not to show our problems to our only daughter. We separated and she never saw a fight, instead she was used to us celebrating holidays, birthdays and enjoying each others extended family. When I remarried, I decided to have a good relationship with my new husband's former wife and cultivate my own relationship with his son. Twenty eight years later, my stepson calls me his other mother, my daughter feels that my husband was the father figure she needed and he remains her friend and confidant...Now my daughter is 31, my stepson is 30 and they share a brother who is 25, and I am still close to my ex-husband and his family...I believe that the more you open your heart to keep all relationships that you have during your lifetime, you absolutely enrich your life forever

My mom had a stepdad. I didn’t know it until I was a teenager, but the man I’d always called “Papa” was not my biological grandfather. But I didn’t care and I still don’t.

[@anneclaireris2121]

I think it's very special that they've created such a successful blended family. I'm a child of divorced parents and a blended family. Which was not a success at all. Jealousy and abuse were a big part of the problems. Right now I'm a divorced parent of one, nearly adult, daughter. I would have loved to have a good relationship with her father but I can't. Too much toxicity has been part of the marriage. So, well done Banderas/Griffith/Johnson family.

The take away for all divorced parents. Remain civil to your ex for the sake of the children. They are literally a product of both of you. Anything hurtful, undermining or bad you do or say to your ex will be internalized and undermine the confidence of your children by a factor of 10. So remain civil to the ex for the sake of innocent children.
