In another interview, he mentioned that whenever he sees Leigh, he is reminded of his mother, Pamela. She was one of the greatest supports in his life. After Leigh, three years later, in April 2022, the couple welcomed their second daughter Lynn. For Adams, being a father is like a purpose – a purpose to grow and achieve more for the daughters. There is no doubt that Adams has been a great father to the duo.

Even wife Villarreal once mentioned in an ESPN interview, his bond with his daughters, giving him the title of “best girl dad.” Besides that post, the couple frequently keep sharing pictures of their adorable daughters on their official social media accounts. On the other hand, the growing children love their father a lot and keep visiting his NFL games with momma Villarreal.

Once during a game in 2022, the kids were captured cheering for their father. The two beautiful children were wearing a sparkling Raiders jersey with “Daddy” and his jersey number “17” written on it, an evident form of support and love for their father.  Adams is lucky to have a beautiful family with his love of life, Villarreal as the two share a special bond.
