In an interview with The Sunday Times newspaper, he said: "They are truly two of the most incredible people. They come from a long line of incredible women and they're even more incredible than the ones before them." On why he wanted to do more with his nieces after years of just seeing them "at a dinner or a thing", he added: "(They come) to stay with me, you know, when my sister and my brother-in-law need a break, and actually having the time to say let's spend five days together."

"Getting to know them and watching them grow up and actually sitting and listening to their experiences and the things that they're going through." The actor never tries to parent the girls and gives them the freedom of his home. He said: "Because they are the farthest from being a handful that you could imagine. And they're really not on their phones. Their father taught them a lot about the outdoors and the country, it's very important to him. So they find trees more interesting than phones, which is a rarity."
