Speaking on 'The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon,' the 45-year-old star, who has eight-year-old twin sons, Valentino and Matteo, said, "They travel with me everywhere and they sit backstage and they look at my show every night. One day one of them went like, 'Daddy, what happened tonight? I didn't like this part. Yesterday was better, last night was better.'"

When asked how he met his fiance, he said, "He is a conceptual artist and I'm a collector, and I saw his art on the Internet and I contacted him. Then we met and everything's been perfect.
