'I love kids, so it's more good times, more joy and more fun. It's no less exciting this time than it was the first time,' Johnson shared with OK! magazine following the birth of his youngest son in 2006.

Don was a massive TV star in the 1980s with Miami Vice, a series about undercover police officers that hunt down drug dealers during the cocaine boom of the 1980s.

This series is largely remembered for the stylish clothes Detectives Sonny Crockett and Ricardo Tubbs wore and the hit music.

But the story lines were solid and mirrored the real life crimes that shattered southernFloridain the wild 1980s.

Don then went on to star in the hit series Nash Bridges opposite Cheech Marin.

The crime show was set in San Francisco.

More recently he has starred in films like Book Club with Jane Fonda and Knives Out with Jamie Lee Curtis.

Don - who used to party hard - changed when he met Kelley, a Montessori school teacher.

In 2017 he told DailyMail.com: 'People don’t develop to the place where they can have long-lasting, mature relationships till they’re in their 30s, and for some of us.'

He then said, gesturing to himself, 'It takes even longer than that.'

Don said he stopped doing drugs with the help of Buddhism and New Age self help. He also let go of 'fear.'

'When I was a young man in Hollywood, drugs, alcohol and partying were everywhere and it was hard to escape.

'It doesn’t become a problem immediately, it takes time, and it led to some poor choices.’

By the late Noughties, Johnson changed, selling off his 20 cars and his ranch in Colorado.

A few years later, he won a $19 million settlement for a share of the profits from Nash Bridges, which he had conceived with the writer Hunter S Thompson.
