Danny DeVito is officially a father of the bride, and loving every second of being a grandfather, too. The Hollywood star revealed that his eldest daughter, actress Lucy DeVito, tied the knot in a private ceremony on June 28.
“It was great. It was amazing, wonderful,” DeVito revealed to People while attending the 'It’s Always Sunny in Philadelphia' 20th anniversary celebration on July 1. “...We just had a good time. You make the speech and the whole thing. It was very emotional and really cool," he added.

In January, during an AARP video feature, he shared: “In two years, my daughters have had a baby each, and since these babies have been born, you gotta tamper me down in the joy department. I'm just like, you know, busting.”

Because when you look back, that kid’s gonna be hula hooping,” he said. “No matter what happens in your life, the main thing is that you’ve got family and friends. That’s all we have, basically: reliable people in our lives who we can talk to and we can open up to. I’m very fortunate. Blessing showered down on me, and I wish it for everybody.”
