Aaron Paul Reveals His New Baby's Famous Godfather

May 2024 ยท 2 minute read

Aaron Paul is now a dad of two! Paul chatted about all things fatherhood on the April 21 episode of "The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon," and revealed that his "Breaking Bad" co-star Bryan Cranston is his boy's godfather. "He's very excited, very honored," Paul said of Cranston accepting the special role. "I love the man to death. He's one of my best friends in the world, and, so yeah, it was just a no-brainer."

Paul and Cranston will reprise their famous roles as Jesse Pinkman and Walter White in the finale season of "Better Call Saul" this year, according to Variety. In addition to being onscreen crime partners, Paul and Cranston are real-life business partners for their tequila company, Dos Hombres. "We missed seeing each other every day on the recordings," Cranston explained to Esquire Mexico (via The Fashionisto) in 2020 about how the company with his co-star came to be. To add to their connections, the two Emmy winners are now closer than ever as Cranston assumes godfather status for Paul's boy.

It's obvious that Paul couldn't wait to expand his family, as evidenced by a December 2021 Instagram post, where he wrote before Ryden's birth, "Can't wait to meet you number 2." It seems like being a dad is the most important thing to Paul, as he gushed to Haute Living in March 2020, "Having a child is the closest thing to magic that anyone can have."
