In November 2022, Will exclusively spoke to HELLO! about his "amazing" role as a father. Sharing a glimpse inside his parenting journey, he told us that life as a dad had been "absolutely amazing", before adding: "I love her so much. It was quite tricky to leave home this morning to come down to The Repair Shop because she's so sweet in the mornings and she just looks up at you and she'd just woken up."
He went on to say: "I'm absolutely in love. It's the best thing I've ever done I think, having a child."
