Celebrity starlets have made it a sport of dating hot athletes. Just ask Jessica Simpson, Kim Kardashian and Cameron Diaz, to name a few.

And some lucky ladies and their doting gents, who also happen to be some of the steamiest men in sports, have walked down the aisle and straight into parenthood!

Click below for a look at 5 of the hottest athlete dads who are sizzling on our summer radar!

  • David Beckham

Whether he's wearing a suit, jeans, or his soccer get-up, David Beckham can do no wrong in the style department, especially given his statuesque physique and killer good looks. Beckham's appeal is punctuated by his love for and dedication to his family; and they manage to remain close-knit even though his career takes him all over the world.

The soccer superstar recently shared that he and wife Victoria Beckham are thinking about adding to their family, which includes sons Brooklyn, 11, Romeo, 7, and Cruz, 5. He said,

We're always trying. If we're lucky enough to have more, that will be amazing.

The hands-on dad also admits to having a penchant for Legos, which he spends time building with his three boys. He says,

I like building Legos. This is going to make me sound really weird but when I was in Milan with a lot of time on my hands I found online that there's Taj Mahal Lego set you can buy. So I bought it.

  • Tom Brady

One half of one of the world's hottest couples, football sensation Tom Brady has made more headline news for his antics off of the playing field than he has for his moves on the football field. After breaking up with girlfriend Bridget Moynahan, he started dating world famous supermodel Gisele Bunchen, and then learned Moynahan was pregnant with his child, Jack, who turns 3 next month.

Brady went on to marry Gisele, and they now have 7 month-old baby Benjamin.

Brady is enjoying fatherhood immensely. He says,

It's a great thing to see them run around at the football game, or at least one of them run around. For a long time, I didn't know when I was going to be a father, and now I have two boys.

  • Hank Baskett

NFL football player Hank Baskett took Playboy playmate Kendra Wilkinson off the market, and now the cute couple has adorable baby, 7 month-old Hank, IV.

Their marriage has been rife with drama, but the couple seems as happy as ever, seen here recently visiting Kendra's hometown of San Diego.

The coordinated parents boasts that their son's latest trick is "high-fiving." And Hank's biggest fan is Kendra, as she shares,

Hank is the best dad in the whole world.

  • Roger Federer

Tennis great Roger Federer proves that the winning score in life is love-love, even if it means quite the opposite on the tennis court! Father to 1 year-old (they turn 1 today!) twin daughters, Myla Rose and Charlene Riva, with wife, Mirka, when Federer claimed his 16th grand slam he told the crowd gathered to see his victory at the Australian Open,

I have played some of the best tennis [of my life] in the last two weeks. This is very special because it’s my first grand slam as a father.

And the tennis star boasts record-breaking wins on the court, but his greatest thrill came the day his daughters were born. Of their birth he shares,

This is the greatest day of our lives. Mirka, Myla and Charlene are all healthy and doing very well.

  • Jimmie Johnson

Jimmie Johnson and wife Chandra, welcomed their baby girl, Genevieve Marie to the world earlier this month! The proud papa announced his daughter's birth on his fan club page here.

Bleacher Report predicts of the Jimmie Johnson's racing performance,

If anything, fatherhood may make him more competitive so he can share his fifth championship with his daughter during her first year of life.
