At the beginning of April, Florian David Fitz (47) confirmed on the sidelines of a premiere that he had become a father. In an interview with "Bild am Sonntag", the actor now gave a rare insight into his private life as a father.

"Children change the axis around which life revolves. And that's exactly what should happen," Fitz reflects in the conversation. With children, for example, there is not much time left to pause or go on vacation. "I didn't realize that before, but vacation just doesn't exist," says Fitz. "Reading a book, relaxing or just going out, that's not easy anymore, you have to organize it differently with children."

But the actor also seems to have made his peace with this new situation: "I made the decision of my own free will. I also had a relatively long life before that without children. And I'm still very happy and curious about everything I've encountered something new."

As part of the premiere of his film "Enclosed Society", Fitz had confirmed to RTL in April: "Yes, I am a father." The actor rarely speaks about his personal life and keeps it private. When asked what kind of father he was, he also explained at the time that he was a "friend of freedom".
