Logan Paul, soon to become a father, was visibly moved to tears after receiving heartfelt parenting advice from rapper Machine Gun Kelly on a recent episode of his “Impaulsive” podcast. Paul, who is eagerly awaiting the arrival of his first child—a baby girl—with his fiancée Nina Agdal, found himself deeply touched by the wisdom shared by MGK, who is a father himself to 15-year-old daughter Casie, whom he shares with ex-girlfriend Emma Cannon.
During the podcast, Machine Gun Kelly, 34, shared some profound insights into the responsibilities and emotional complexities of fatherhood with the 29-year-old YouTuber and wrestler. “Everything you do, from the moment she’s conceived until the day she dies—everything—will have an impact on her,” MGK emphasized, underscoring the lifelong influence a parent has on their child. He urged Paul to be mindful of even the smallest details, such as the tone of his voice, which can have lasting effects.
MGK continued by discussing the powerful connection between a parent and child, particularly emphasizing the importance of a father’s presence. “Make sure you keep that girl close to you,” he advised, highlighting how a father’s “pheromones” can create a sense of safety and comfort for their daughter.
The rapper then shared a poignant personal story that moved both him and Paul. Recalling a recent moment with his daughter Casie, MGK described how she approached him, simply saying, “I just need your hug. There’s nothing like my dad’s hug.” The memory brought him to tears, illustrating the deep bond that has developed over years of consistent love and support. “While she was hugging me, I just broke down,” MGK admitted, clearly emotional as he recounted the experience.

As MGK elaborated on the lifelong impact a father can have, he reminded Paul that he would be the first man his daughter ever loves. This realization struck a chord with Paul, who began to get choked up during the conversation. MGK continued, “No matter who she marries, you’ll always be her safe place. Give her that love that so many girls and women don’t get to have.”
Overcome with emotion, Paul responded by wiping away tears and jokingly said, “F–k you, bro,” acknowledging the intensity of the moment. The discussion clearly left a deep impression on Paul, who is on the cusp of beginning his own journey into fatherhood.
Logan Paul and Nina Agdal, who is due to give birth in just two months, first announced their pregnancy in April with a sweet Instagram post. The couple, who captioned their joint reveal “Another Paul coming this Fall,” shared a photo of Agdal showing off her baby bump in a fitted white top while Paul proudly held up sonogram pictures. The image, taken in front of a lush garden, captured the excitement of the couple as they prepare to welcome their new addition.
Paul later shared the same photos to his Instagram Story, expressing his excitement for the “very special” next chapter of their lives. Agdal also posted on her Story, referring to herself and Paul as “mom and dad” and expressing her eagerness to meet their “little best friend” soon.
The couple, who got engaged in Lake Como, Italy, in July 2023 after about a year of dating, are eagerly anticipating the arrival of their daughter. Meanwhile, MGK, who has faced his own challenges, recently credited his daughter Casie with helping him on his journey to sobriety, further illustrating the powerful impact a child can have on a parent’s life.
As Logan Paul prepares for fatherhood, the advice and heartfelt stories shared by Machine Gun Kelly on the podcast are sure to resonate with him for years to come, guiding him as he steps into this new and profound role.
