According to Groff, there might be a slight issue if he does have kids in the future. He said, "I have this weird quirk where I scare small children because — this was with my two nieces as well, between the ages of 0 and 2 — I come in hot with enthusiasm, and it freaks them out."

The two-time Tony Award nominee also said, "This is the case with Ever (Michele's son) as well. So I'm slowly trying to play it cool to gain his love and affection back." However, the little boy is a big fan of Hamilton, so Groff uses it to win him over.

Groff, who took on the role of King George III in the musical, said, "My one in with him is that he likes 'You'll Be Back' from Hamilton. Whenever we FaceTime and Ever's there, I'll be like, 'Da, da, da, da, da!' [I'm] waiting [for] the age when he's going to be able to watch "Frozen," and then maybe I'll have another in, but I'm working on it."
