Suki Waterhouse says Robert Pattinson 'excels' in this parenting chore: 'He thinks it's fun'

Robert Pattinson loves being a dad.

Suki Waterhouse opened up on the 3rd hour of TODAY on Sept. 12 about her life as a mom of one to their 6-month-old baby girl and said the "Batman" star is really good at changing diapers.

"I would say I change more diapers, but diaper changing — he really excels at it and enjoys it," she said. "He thinks it's fun."

As for how she's been adapting to motherhood, Waterhouse said it has been "a lot" to get used to, especially with her career. However, she noted that she loves taking care of their daughter.

"It's just that love, just completely and utterly besotted. I didn't know that it would be this good," she said.

On April 4, Waterhouse shared the first photo of her baby online. She captioned the Instagram post, "Welcome to the world angel ??."

Waterhouse and Pattinson are head over heels for each other. The under-the-radar couple were first spotted together in 2018. Then, in December 2022, they went public with their relationship when they made their red carpet debut at the Dior Pre-Fall 2023 menswear show in Giza, Egypt.

Both Waterhouse and Pattinson are actors originally from England. Pattinson got his start in the "Twilight" series and since then has made daring acting choices — whether he's playing the Batman or voicing a heron. Waterhouse was in "Daisy Jones & the Six" and another period drama, "Misbehaviour."

2019: Robert Pattinson says he wants to keep his love life private

Pattinson was game to speak about his exes, like "Twilight" co-star Kristen Stewart, in an April 2019 interview with The Sunday Times, — but preferred to stay away from addressing his current partner head-on.

When asked to respond to rumors he was dating Waterhouse, he asked, “Do I have to?”

“If you let people in, it devalues what love is," he said. "If a stranger on the street asked you about your relationship, you’d think it extremely rude. If you put up a wall, it ends better."

Pattinson added that being a celebrity can interfere with his personal life.

“I can’t understand how someone can walk down the street holding hands, and it’s the same as when I do it and a hundred people are taking your photo. The line between when you’re performing and when you’re not will eventually get washed away and you’ll go completely mad," he said.

February 2022: Robert Pattinson mentions a 'girlfriend' in interviews

During his press tour for "The Batman," in which he had the lead role, Pattinson frequently mentioned a girlfriend without naming names.

In a February 2022 GQ interview, Pattinson said his girlfriend wouldn't stop talking to his repairman about his new movie.

“The guy came around the other day and he just randomly started talking about what a DC fan he is,” Pattinson said. “And I’m sitting there facing the other direction, and my girlfriend just keeps continuing the conversation with him. And I’m looking at her like: Shut the f--- up! Why are you doing this to me? She was very entertaining. Just talking to an obsessive fan.”

He referred to his "girlfriend" again during a February 2022 appearance on “Jimmy Kimmel Live," and how her reaction helped him put the movie into perspective.

"It was really her reaction that changed the entire thing because I’m pretty sure she’s not normally into watching superhero movies,” he said. “Just seeing that it was capturing her attention the entire time ... then she just held my hand and just touched it ... I could feel a little tear. I was like, No way."
