Eric Benet Married with Children


Eric Benet, who married Manuela Testolini on July 31, 2011 [click here if you missed that], talks about his new marriage, his new baby and what kind of father he'll be this time around...

ESSENCE.com: You’re a newlywed. How’s married life?

BENET: We got married July 31st, but unfortunately, I’ve been on tour in Asia, and I’m now off to Australia. It’s difficult being apart, but it’s been great when we’ve been together. Manuela and I have the rest of our lives.

ESSENCE.com: You’re a newlywed, you’ve got a new label, you’re under new management. Is there a new baby?

BENET
: Yes, there is actually. Blessings abound. I’m just at this very happy, very fulfilling, exciting time in my life. I’ve got one child in her second year of college (Benet’s daughter India is 18) and another on the way. With India I was the young, cool daddy. Now I’m going to be that old daddy.
