NEIL PATRICK HARRIS
HUSBAND GOALS #277
We love an all-rounder, so we have big feelings for Neil Patrick Harris. Not only is the star a seasoned comedy actor and serious thesp, he’s also a Broadway legend with a handful of Tonys under his belt. Oh, and he’s also achieved the gold standard of fame: the right to be referred to by his initials alone. Hear that, J-LO?
NPH may be best known now for his roles on
How I Met Your Mother and A Series Of Unfortunate
Events, but he actually got his big break aged just 14, when he played the titular role of child prodigy doctor Doogie Howser, M.D. Not that getting older has done him any harm. Honestly, how is he 48? Must be all those energetic jazz hands. Normally, we’re gutted when our Torso of the Week is taken, but not in Neil’s case. The actor’s marriage to David Burtka is what we in the biz call “serious #couplegoals” and, together with their 11-year-old twins Harper and Gideon, their Instagram content makes our hearts burst. Don’t believe us? Just look up the family’s annual Halloween get-ups. Award-worthy stuff.
