John Stamos was initially against the idea of his son going into acting

He told UsWeekly: "I didn't want him to go into acting, but he loves it.

"He did his first play at the community centre. He did Beetlejuice. The sandworm."

The former General Hospital star recently took his son to the theatre - which resulted in a surprise reunion with Happy Days legend Henry Winkler - and acquiesced that a life in the spotlight is likely to be his son's "calling" after he ran up onto the stage.

"We took him to see Darren Criss last night, and he sat there and did not move.

" It was a great moment because Henry Winkler was there. He texted me yesterday. I didn't even know he had my phone number. I walked into the theater and I see him and I couldn't believe it, you know?"

"He walked onto the stage and started spinning around and ran through the theatre.

"I think that's going to be his calling."

John - who was initially married to Rebecca Romijn from 1998 until 2005 - was recently asked what he enjoys about watching his son grow up admitted that he just "loves" getting to see how the little one interprets the world around him.

He told E! News: "His sense of wonder! I love to watch him see things for the first time, I love to see his point of view on things. He's my life. I don't know where I would be without having a kid."
