Gossip Girl Goes On Diaper Duty

The young cast of Gossip Girl will soon be on diaper duty if co-star Matthew Settle has his way.

The 40-year-old actor, whose daughter Aven is 6 months old, tells OK!, I’m going to make all the kids change her diaper just so they can get experience.”

If they need any help, Matthew is willing to share his expertise: “I’m really good. I’m an expert. We have a song. [sings] ‘Diaper girl, diaper girl, diaper girl in a diaper world. [ends singing/commercial voice] Diaper girl! Diapers not included.’ It makes her laugh every time.”

The proud papa is happy to gush about little Aven’s latest adventures, too.

“We took her to her to socialize around other babies. We went to Gymboree. At first, she was scared and crying, and all the clapping and people singing … ‘I don’t know what to do! This is new’ … and by the end of it, she was wanting to giggle and stand up and wanted all the babies to play with her. She was a little bit scared, but now she’s ready to play. She gets in the mirror with all the other kids and she grabs the balls. She’s always precious – she’s adorable.”

Though he admits he and his wife Naama aren’t getting much sleep these days, Matthew says that parenthood has been an amazing experience, noting, “you have this new love in your life, so your love increases incredibly.”
