The 36-year-old actor said that he grew up with his parents who worked a lot. But it doesn't matter how hard his parents worked for them. They made sure that their presence was there during the night and in the morning. His parents were responsible enough to take care of everything that is important in their lives. It is something that he is adapting to his own family.

The award-winning actor makes sure that he is there whenever his child needs him. He is married to Vanessa Adriana Nadal with whom he has a two-year-old son, Sebastian. Miranda said that parents should just allow their children to be weird because there is a chance that they could be a genius later. He thinks it is important that kids make their own way in finding a place for who they really are. Giving them freedom on things that interest them is something that parents should be open to.

As for the "Hamilton" star's career, The Inquisitr reported that Miranda just confirmed a new project with Emily Blunt. This time, he will star in the sequel film of "Mary Poppins."
