Mekhi Phifer Talks About Fatherhood

Mekhi Phifer plays a doctor on ER, and he’s a dad in real life. Mekhi has two kids, Omikaye, 9, and Mekhi Thira, 10 months. He says he loves family life and being a dad…

“I love kids, outings, camping, sports, Legoland, all the Daddy stuff. I love it. I wish I could just do that, but I have to work too.”

But even when he’s working his family is what stays the priority.

“That’s what it’s all about. When you’re working and making money, that’s all good, but there has to be something that provides a substance, I think. [Family] is the backbone, the foundation that keeps me going.”

Mekhi sounds like he would be a down to earth father.
