Balthazar Getty -- What Have I DONE?

The days of making out with a hot, topless, 27-year-old Sienna Miller in an Italian chateau are long gone -- now Balthazar Getty is back in the real world, tending to his brood and trying to find the meaning of life in a pack of theater-bought Goobers.

 Balthazar Getty
But give the dude his props -- he's a real good dad.

Whatever happened at home is not the question, he should not have had his photo's taken with his shorts round his ankles having sex with another woman, his wife should at least have been spared that , it was all over the internet, how would you feel thinking your husband was visiting his mother and then one morning you see those photo's. Rosetta is very shy and is very well liked as she is a LADY which is more than can be said for Miller. All this taking the children is damage control and also all about the divorce, in Califonia its 50/50 plus child maintanance I read somewhere.

17. He is a terrible dad. He is a lousy example for his kids and doesn't care value their innocence and care enough by his actions with Sienna Miller. It is not Sienna's fault. He is sefish scum. Poor kids!

Wrong TMZ. Wrong wrong wrong. A good Daddy is one who doesn't cheat on Mommy.

It's called role modeling.

19. So let me get this straight, doing what his dumb ass should have done in the first place (spending time with the children he spawned, instead of effing some british chick) makes him a good dad? Wow, whoever posts these statements sets bar real low. God help their kids,,,

20. How cute. It's not everyday you see four small children at a movie unsupervised.

21. Some of you are hoping he 'rots in hell'? Wow, you sure have a lot of opinions for people who don't even know him. It's completely pathetic to comment on someone's life when you haven't even had a conversation with that person.

I'm sure you're all perfect people. Heh. Yeah, right.

22. #17 - you summed it up. Now that was funny. And I do believe TMZ was being sarcastic in calling this jackass a good dad.

23. A good dad physically takes care of his children. A good dad emotionally cares of his children. A good dad tends to and is interested in his children’s lives and needs. No where, I repeat no where does it say that cheating on your wife makes you a “bad dad”. That simply makes him a “bad husband” Anyone who makes this statement of him being a “bad dad” is simply a hurt and misguided soul who did not have a father in their life growing up and now sadly despises the man.

Sad part is is if that same person weren’t so blinded by moms hate they might see that their father does in fact love them and that what happened between the mother and the father (pending it was cheating only) does not mean in any way shape or form what-so-ever that their dad is not a good father or does not love you his child. That is what your hurt, hateful, and scorned mother wants and has led you to believe.

Fact is is a person cannot make themselves love someone forever if they don’t. No matter whether you have children with that person or not. And if you decide to cheat it has NOTHING to do with not being a good or bad dad at all. All that that means is he was not a good “husband” to your mother. Decipher the difference between the two and move on and have a relationship with your dad.

You only live once and you only have one father and mother. And if your dad chooses to see you and love you after he has cheated on your mother then don’t let your jaded mother lead you to believe that your dad doesn’t care about you just because SHE was deceived and hurt………

25. If you hurt the mother of your children by having an affair, then you are indeed being a BAD DAD. Why?

1) While BG is out and about with his mistress, his wife is picking up the pieces and protecting the kids from seeing those photos of daddy sucking on another woman's breast. So he is spending "quality time" with his kids, where was he when those photos of him and his mistress hit the internet? Where was he when his mistress and her family was spreading lies about his marriage and wife (ie-separated, he was unhappy, they had trouble before she stepped in the picture)?

2) He has 3 GIRLS. How is he going to explain sucking on another woman's breast while he was still married to their mother to them? What about the message he is sending to his kids? When he has a very publuc affair, he is telling kids that the woman who gave them birth isn't worhty of respect, love, honesty.

3) These kids will one day grow up and pattern their relationships based on what they have witnessed from their father. Will they cheat on their signifincant other or will they be the one who interefers in the relationships of others?

4) If he loved those kids, he would have keept the affair out of the public's eye. A decent father would have had enough common courtesy to realize that a public affair isn't healthy for kids. Can you imagine what other kids and their parents are saying in front and behind their backs? Can you imagine facing these same people knowing that they know that your husband/father has relapsed and that your husband is cheating on you/your father is cheating on your mother ? A loving father would have realized this and done everything in his power to keep the affair discreet or wait until his divorce was final before getting involved with another woman.


This man isn't spending quality time with his kids, he is on the "I love my family" tour. Isn't this a little to late, he should have been doing this along time ago instead of prancing around Italy, Prague, NY, LA, MExico, and London with his mistress. The only things BG enjoys about SM is her money/drugs/alcohol and the fact that he didn't have to make any real commitments to her. She will once again be threatened by the fact that he is spending "quality time" with his kids and jump on a plane to LA to set the record straight. Why is this man putting so much energy into being a "good dad"? He hasn't filed for a divorce, so I seriously doubt that he is preppign for a custody battle. Maybe it's to show people that his kids are not "suffering" because of the affair and that this gives him the right to resume flaunting his affair when his mistress arrives for her Broadway debut.

27. The father has a right to leave if the mother is not satisfying him. She must please him.

28. 'Good Dads' don't cheat on their wives who just had their baby!

29. GET A BRAIN, TMZ. "REAL GOOD DADS" DON'T SCREW AROUND BEHIND THEIR WIVES BACKS. THEY DON'T HUMILIATE THE MOTHER OF THEIR CHILDREN. THEY DON'T CAUSE DIVORCES AND BROKEN HOMES. THEY DON'T TEACH THEIR KIDS THAT THIS IS OK.

30. GET A BRAIN TMZ. A "REAL GOOD FATHER" DOES NOT MAKE A MOCKERY OF HIS CHILDREN'S MOTHER. HE DOES NOT BREAK UP A HOME, HUMILIATE HIS WIFE AND TEACH HIS KIDS {BY HIS OWN ACTIONS} THAT THIS IS "OK". HE'S A ROTTEN FATHER AND A ROTTEN HUSBAND.
