“I never let my public image affect how I parent my kids,” he told Rolling Out in June 2023. “Other than to use it as an example, my experiences are supposed to convey a point, but I don’t let it interfere with how I parent.”

“When I’m home for three months, I’m right back in the mix with the family,” Morris told Rolling Out. “I try to make a lot of positive moves as a parent.”

“I tried to teach my son when he was younger to use his voice and articulation as power,” Morris said on The Kelly Clarkson Show in January 2022. “And that he has an opportunity to effect change as well.”
