Mark Wahlberg is one proud dad!
The actor was joined by his wife, Rhea Wahlberg, and their four children -- Brendan, Ella, Michael and Grace -- at the premiere of latest movie, "Play Dirty," on Sept. 24.
In an interview the next day on "Good Morning America" about the film, Mark Wahlbergopened up about his kids' waning interest in his career, describing how it's changed over the years.
"In the 'Transformer' days, they were interested. They wanted to come. They wanted to see the action. They wanted to see Bumblebee. Now they're like, 'Dad, this is boring,'" he said, adding that his oldest daughter still appreciates getting to meet celebrities she admires.
Wahlberg said time spent away from his family is "the biggest sacrifice" he faces in his career, so he was pleased with their attendance at the "Play Dirty" premiere.
The family also joined Mark Wahlberg on the set of his latest shoot, according to a photo shared on Instagram by Rhea Wahlberg on Sept 23.
She simply captioned the photo, which shows the family surrounding Mark Wahlberg as he sits at a classroom desk, "On set 🎥🎞️."
The Wahlberg family lives full-time in Las Vegas, a location Mark Wahlberg said in a 2022 interview that they decided to move to from California for a "better life."
"Every free moment that I have, I'm at home," he said on "The Talk," later adding, " To be able to give my kids a better life and follow and pursue their dreams whether it be my daughter as an equestrian, my son as a basketball player, my younger son as a golfer, this made a lot more sense for us ... We came here to just kind of give ourselves a new look, a fresh start for the kids, and there's lot of opportunity here."
The following year, in 2023, Mark Wahlberg shared more about his kids' different interests.
"My daughter, who's an equestrian, she's got a new barn. My son's taking [mixed martial arts]. My oldest daughter's at college and then my [other] son, he's just waiting to turn into an actor at some point," the actor told "LIVE with Kelly and Mark" co-hosts Kelly Ripa and Mark Consuelos.
