John O'Hurley says fatherhood is 'incommunicably satisfying'

If you caught William O’Hurley, 11-months, making a special appearance yesterday on NBC’s National Dog Show, you know that he’s not camera-shy.  According to his dad, Spamalot star John O’Hurley, baby William has become "very comfortable being on stage" since he started visiting the set of Family Feud, which John also hosts.

He just loves being on stage to the point where if I have to continue with the show and I hand him off to my wife, he doesn’t want to go with her, he wants to stay on stage.

As avid dog lovers, John and his wife Lisa Mesloh naturally own two dogs themselves, and William is a big fan of both.  John said that as William prepares to enter toddler-hood they’re hoping for a time when the baby "is a little more mobile and gentle" with the dogs. 

Right now he can pet the dogs, but he also wants to pull the ears and also he wants to do an oral exam on the dogs as well. He just wants to put his finger in everyone’s mouth.

Calling fatherhood "the most incommunicably satisfying thing" he’s ever done, John noted the changes it’s made in the way he views the world. 

I had never known that I had the capacity to love something as deeply as I do…It certainly has deepened my life and changed my life in so many aspects. As much as I love that little kid, I am also much less tolerant and more vigilant about the world around me than I ever was before.

Nonetheless, John, 53, says that William will be an only child.

We did it right once. He’ll be getting out of diapers just as I’m getting into them, so that’s funny.
