American actor and wrestler John Cena has shared that his biggest fear is never feeling ready to be a “great parent.” The 47-year-old, who has been married twice but has no children, explained that he doesn't believe he'll ever be prepared to dedicate the time required to be an excellent parent.
In a recent interview with Club Shay Shay, Cena said, "My biggest fear is that I don’t think I’m personally ready, nor will I ever be, to invest the time it takes to be a great parent. I still have a lot to do and want to accomplish. I have a wonderful partner, and we've had open conversations about this. We share the same values."
Cena acknowledged that discussing this topic is challenging because it often invites judgment. "It's a tough subject to talk about because it immediately puts you in a category. People tend to judge. Human nature, we are all judgmental. But I operate under the construct that everyone is okay living their lives. I'm very happy with where I stand. I have a lot of joy and fulfillment in my life," he added.
Cena was first married to Elizabeth Huberdeau on July 11, 2009, but the couple divorced on July 18, 2012. He later married Shay Shariatzadeh, whom he had been dating since early 2019, in a private ceremony in Tampa, Florida, on October 12, 2020. Neither marriage resulted in children.
