In British GQ's October issue, the Irish actor and his two youngest sons opened up about their bond with Paris and Dylan revealing what it was like growing up with such a famous father.
"I always thought he had a lot of friends, growing up, because people would come up to him in the street, and he's like the nicest guy, so he talks to everyone for a really long time," explained Dylan.
Despite his level of fame, 69-year-old Pierce has always advised his sons against careers in acting. "Just because it's [explicit] hard work, it's a cross to bear," he noted. "You're constructing and destroying yourself."
