Luka Doncic is no different, as he opened up to Snoop Dogg in an interview on Access Hollywood about his feelings after turning into a dad for Gabriela."I mean, it changed me, for sure," Doncic said. "Just seeing things more clearly. At the end of the day, it's the best gift. You can't get nothing better. Just being part of her life, it's unbelievable."Doncic also told Esquire in an interview last year that he plans to keep his kids' lives private. He doesn't want them exposed to the public and wants them to experience everything out of the spotlight.However, it's going to be a hard thing to do, especially in Los Angeles. The city is known for celebrities, and one of the biggest nuisances for them is the amount of paparazzi following them around.
