Ron Howard Dedicates Emotional Song & Video to Twin Daughters, 1 of Whom Is Rarely Seen

• Ron Howard and his wife of 47 years, Cheryl, are happy parents of twin daughters whose birth was a turning point in their family life.

• Thirty-eight years ago, Ron recorded a video and wrote a song for his twins and shared them only on his birthday this year.

• One of the twins is rarely seen with dad and her sister, but proud dad shared a few photos with both girls.

Actor and director Ron Howard has had a remarkable career in Hollywood, and his personal life has been just as successful. They even welcomed twin daughters, who became the focal points of their lives.

While he leads a relatively private life, he sometimes shares photos and details about his family on social media. He recently shared his twin’s birthday; they turned 38 the same year he turned 68.

Now, he and his wife, Cheryl, are proud parents to the twins, yet there were moments before they were born when Ron expressed worries about his daughters, Paige and Jocelyn, whose birthday is on February 5.

Ron and Cheryl were 16 when they met in 1970. They went on a date and had pizza soon after their first meeting. They also watched a movie that night. Many years later, Ron shared that he and Cheryl celebrated their anniversary by recreating the date.

He mentioned that their relationship shouldn’t have worked because they met so young. However, he was grateful that he and his wife managed to come through all the years together despite being so young.

Ron said that when the couple had their first child, they didn’t have much trouble, but when they found out Cheryl would be having twins the second time she fell pregnant, everything changed for them.

He shared that his wife had to be in bed for three or four months at a time because she was carrying twins. He admitted:

“For the first time in my life, I had to take a lot of extra responsibility at home.”
