Batman Robert Pattinson Pfp | Batman: Robert Pattinson's Pregnant Fiancée's Pregnancy & Parenting Style

The wedding bells are ringing, and the bridegroom is in a loving mood. It’s time for the traditional pre-wedding photograph, and the newlywed couple are beaming at the altar. As the photographer snaps away, the guests are anxiously waiting for the bride to give her speech. She steps up to the lectern and begins her heartfelt vows:

“I promise to love you, honor you, and cherish you for the rest of our lives.”

The groom reciprocates by promising to provide love and protection for his wife and their child. The audience is touched by the couple’s commitment to each other, and the photographer moves to another part of the venue to get some fresh shots.

Flash forward a few months, and the couple is blessed with a baby boy. The proud parents rush to show off their little family member, and delighted guests cheer as the infant slips into babywear. The newlywed couple’s lives seem perfect, but everything is not as it seems. Robert Pattinson’s baby boy will be raised in a very unconventional manner. Here’s a closer look at the unorthodox way in which Robert Pattinson’s baby boy will be raised.

Pattinson’s Choice Of Parents

Little Zola, as he’s called, was born on April 2, 2018, in London, England. The happy couple had been dating for two years prior to getting married, and shared a commitment to parenthood. Robert Pattinson had previously admitted that he wasn’t exactly overflowing with maternal instincts; however, the Twilight actor clearly made the right choice in Alana. Now 42 years old, the actor’s life seems complete, and he’s taken on the role of father with relish. In an interview with Elle UK, he gushed:

“I feel incredibly lucky to have been given the chance to be a father. It’s an honor and a responsibility I take seriously. I want to be the best possible dad I can be.”

Pattinson had previously said that he would have preferred an au pair to take care of his son, but he eventually chose to be the baby’s custodian. The former couple reportedly had considered a joint-custody arrangement, but ultimately decided against it. A senior publicist for Warner Bros. explained:

“For the first two years of his life, Zola will live with his parents and access all the necessary support he needs. Once he reaches school age, the family will meet regularly for playdates and to swap him between their homes. While this will be a challenge for Alana to adjust to as a new parent, she and Robert have discussed how much they value the relationship they have with their son.”

The Twilight actor is also aware of the influence that his famous father had on his life and work. He’s mentioned that he patterned his own life after his father’s, and even tried to look like him on his wedding day. In an interview with Rolling Stone, he admitted that he wasn’t exactly sure how to be a dad; however, he vowed to do his best:

“I want to be a good dad. I don’t know how to be a good dad yet, but I want to figure it out. I want him to feel secure and loved.”

Raising A Non-Standard Son

With a famous celebrity father and a renowned acting career, there are no guarantees that Zola will grow up to follow in his parents’ footsteps. The young boy will be raised in an unconventional manner, and exposed to a different set of values and standards. It seems that Robert Pattinson isn’t just a dad to his son; he’s an activist and a humanitarian as well. In an interview with Entertainment Tonight, Pattinson explained that he wouldn’t hesitate to put himself in harm’s way to save the day:

“Any parent would do anything for their child. I want to be a good dad, but I’m not sure how yet. Right now, I’m trying to show him as much love and affection as I can. He needs a lot of support and understanding, and hopefully, I can be that for him.”

Pattinson has also discussed his unorthodox approach to parenting with The New York Times; he’s an advocate of natural parenting and minimalism. In his view, there’s no right or wrong way to parent, and he encourages other parents to follow their instincts. He told the Times:

“I’m not trying to set a rule. You do what you need to do for your baby. There’s no formula.”

The actor is passionate about protecting mother nature and minimizes the use of plastics and toxins in all aspects of his life. In an interview with Yahoo Lifestyle, he discussed how he incorporates natural products into his skincare and baby care routines:

“I try and use as many natural products as I can. When I shower, I always use environmentally friendly products. When I use towels, I try and use paper products that haven’t been printed on. As a parent, I want to raise my son to be as environmentally conscious as possible too. It’s important not to damage the environment for future generations. As a dad, I feel very passionate about this. It’s an issue that affects my life and my son’s. As a celebrity, it’s important to show that I care as much as anyone else does.”

An Unconventional Childhood

In what seems like an endless string of celebrity weddings, Zola’s parents tied the knot again in a lavish ceremony in June 2019. The happy newlyweds share a love for animals, and have incorporated their shared hobby into their parenting style. The boy’s paternal grandmother provided an interesting commentary on his upbringing in an interview with the Sun:

“What’s great is that Alana is taking the reins on things. She’s such a good, confident mum now. She’s wonderful with kids. She’s so good with animals. I can see why Zola loves having his little sister around. It’s been a real change for the both of them.”

It would appear that being a famous parent is a lot of work, and it shows in Alana’s tired but beautiful face. Although she’s only been a parent for a few months, the actress revealed in an interview with Closer that she’s already learned a lot:

“It’s been a steep learning curve. Zola is such a happy, content baby, but he needs constant attention. He needs constant feeding, changing, and cleaning. I’ve been a full-time single parent for the past two months, and it’s been a strain, but worth it. I love what I’m doing, and I’d do it all again in a heartbeat.”

The child’s unorthodox upbringing will surely inspire some parents to experiment too. One mother who shares some of Robert Pattinson’s values and philosophies revealed in an interview with Daily Mail:

“The best thing is that Zola has opened up so many possibilities. His parents are both supportive of each other’s careers, and they believe that love and attention is the best way to raise children. I’m really Inspired by Robert and Alana’s approach to parenting, and I want to try and be as open-minded and encouraging as possible.”
