While promoting her documentary Dads in 2020, Howard told Risen Magazine about her husband's "remarkable" parenting skills. From the moment they welcomed their first child, "I was just in awe of him. Totally in awe," she said. "He was really generous and selfless. And he was 24 when we had our first kid."

"That has continued and he's just a really engaged, devoted father. What we struggle with most is being like, 'Seth, make sure that you have boundaries for yourself and you take time for yourself. You're not just at the beck and call of the kids 24/7.' He's a best friend to them," Howard continued. "He's a playmate to them. He's an incredible role model. He's a guide. He's just awesome. I'm so grateful to have the family that I do."
