Dad Opens Up About Adopted Son In Powerful Ad

A poignant Jockey ad puts the spotlight on adoptive families. 

In a video for the brand's "Show 'Em What's Underneath" campaign, dad Michael Cottone talks about his son Vin while engaging in skin-to-skin bonding with the baby. "A few weeks ago, it was just me and my wife. And now, I’m a dad,” he narrates.

Cottone and his wife, Brigit, wanted to start a family but struggled to get pregnant, so they turned to adoption. "Vincent’s birth mother, she's amazing," the dad says. "The strongest person I’ve ever met. And she picked us. That’s an unbelievable feeling -- that she has the feeling in her gut that we are the ones to be his father, his mother."

Watch the full video above for more powerful words from the new dad.
