JAMES STEWART - 'Im a BETTER MAN'

THERE'S A BEAUTIFUL BOND BETWEEN THIS FATHER AND DAUGHTER

- Naomi Toy

Not only has Scout Stewart, 11, inherited the good looks of her father, Home & Away star James Stewart, she has also been blessed with an easygoing nature and subtle confidence that belies her age. Their close-knit and loving bond is apparent to all as the pair goof around in the WHO studios for this exclusive shoot and chat ahead of a special Father’s Day spent together. As they say, like father, like daughter.

So James, what’s the best thing about being a dad to Scout? 

James: The hug when I get home at the end of the day.

And how do you think being a father changed you?

James: It’s made me a better man, that’s for sure. I’m more patient, I’m kinder, more attentive, more involved and passionate about life, way more protective and caring. But most of all, it’s made me more loving. Every night at Scout’s bedtime, I make sure I’m there to tell her I love her. I make sure she hears the words “Daddy loves you”.

Scout, what are some of the qualities that make him a great dad?

Scout: My dad has always been a great dad, and he has a bright personality and good humour. He makes people laugh and smile.
