The NCIS actor loves nothing more than spending time with his family when he isn't busy working. Eric previously admitted fatherhood has turned him into a softie. 

He also revealed that his co-stars, Chris O'Donnell and LL Cool J were role models to him when it came to parenting. "Chris and LL always talked about it — they wrap for the day, and you just drive home because you get to go and see your family," he said.

Eric also told Entertainment Tonight that he realized the true meaning of loving someone unconditionally after having children. 

"The most important thing that I learned was kind of the idea of unconditional love. And of course, that doesn’t mean that there’s not boundaries in that love. [There are] boundaries within that love, but the love is unconditional in that you always have this place that is safe."
