The Rock sheds a tear as Rob Delaney talks about the tragic loss of his son in 2018 / Dwayne Johnson 

The way he said, "talk about my Henry?" made me sob. He was clearly happy to talk about his lovely Henry, but there was such a pain behind his eyes.

Hes absolutely beaming when he's asked to describe his son.

As a dad with a 3 year old son. I couldn't even imagine a life without him. My goodness...truly heartbreaking.

I could never talk about the death of a loved one in such a public manner without absolutely falling apart. This man's strength and courage are an inspiration. I'm truly sorry to hear of his dear son's passing.

I can't imagine what the pain of losing a child to cancer feels like. Rob Delaney is a strong man.

“He said Henry’s name…” After our son died, this really was (and still is) the greatest way to honour him. When people use his name it gives him a place in this world forever 💙

I'm a child cancer survivor and I consider myself among the fortunate ones. I was only 3 at the time in 1973. I lost an eye but got a life. Much love and continued healing to Mr. Delaney.

"A heart that hurts, is a heart that works." You don't even know how much I wish I could've heard that just once growing up. It would've made such an impactful difference. I will definitely remember that for the rest of my life. I started crying as soon as he said, "My Henry." That was so gut wrenchingly beautiful. Thank you for sharing your gift of words and meaningfulness. My condolences for your sweet Henry and the rest of your family. 💜

"Describe my Henry?" Him lighting up like that is so beautiful.

You can literally see the love pour out of this man whenever he speaks of his son. I just want to reach through screen and hug him

I have no idea who this guy is, but i'll be cheering for him forever. What a special energy he has.

Much love to him. We lost our son to suicide aged 15, four years ago and it takes strength to fight your way back into the world without them xx

"if you're born on planet earth you're going to experience pain and there's no way around it" Words i needed to hear. Sometimes you going through so much shit that you can't see a way out besides one. To hear what he went through and how the books helped him see in a positive light is grounding, Inspirational and very very selfishly comforting.

What a brave soul this bloke is. You can see the warmth and calmness all through him even though he’s been through the worst tragedy you can experience. Nothing but admiration for the person he is

When he said “he said Henry’s name” as a mother who’s lost a child, you’ll never understand, unless you’ve been there, what it means when someone says their name 🥺

So much respect to a person that can lose a child and still be this candid and loving. My daughter just turned one and the fear of losing her crosses my mind and I honestly just don't know how I'd ever get to that point. Much love to anybody grieving the loss of a child.

Some people learn to deal with grief easier than others. This man obviously found a path that helped him significantly. As a parent of 3 boys, much respect for Rob.

I lost my 9 month old daughter in the same year as Rob. The way he lit up when he was asked to talk about his son is the same feeling I get with my daughter. It can seem scary to ask someone about their child who passed, but trust me when I say it makes us happy to talk about them.

0:26 The look of excitement on his face! That little boy was too young to understand that he was sick. All he knew was that his family LOVED him. That’s a good life in my eyes.

My aunt lost her son to cancer when he was 10. Also when the boy struggled through treatment her husband fell in love with someone else. She`s also had breastcancer herself. The way she`s dealt with it through excercise and strong will baffles me, and inspires me beyond anything I`ve personally experienced or endured.

The Rock is one of those people who really deserve all of their good fortune. He’s so obviously a genuinely good person.

It's not fair when a child gets cancer. 😭💔 Rest in peace

Rob Delaney is an amazing man.

I lost my son … Rob’s description on how to manage grief is wonderful.

I know what Rob means. For a while after my mum died I felt an anger I never thought I could. Then you start talking and you recall all the times she made you laugh and the anger dissaptes and you remember the joy and love.

Pain is temporary, but love and hope never die. We all have ways of coping, but losing a child is something no one can ever prepare for. His Henry’s story is helping someone in the world somewhere.

My son is 6 months old. A first time father, who didnt want to be a father, but as soon as he was born, I was pulled by a gravity unlike anything, towards him. I love nothing in this world near the amount that I love my son. know I couldn't cope if I lost my boy. It's so crazy to even hear someone talk about losing their child and keep it together. Such a strong man! Lovely guy

Seeing Dwayne on One show is something i never thought would happen

Rob is so candid and honest about his journey through grief after losing Henry. If he had to stop writing to cry or puke, he did and then returned to the task. Tragically, children die of illness or in accidents and it's time it stopped being a kind of taboo. Yes, it seems to go against the natural sequence of things but it happens. We need to talk about it and learn what we can do to be of support.

You can actually feel his love for his son, he must be so proud.

He talks about grief is such an articulate and human way. RIP little Henry.

He is such a sweet man. No parent should have to bury their child.

Grief explained very well, in fact the best explanation for grieving that I've ever heard. Thank you Rob Delaney

What a guy. Incredible.

How is he speaking like this without crying ? That is some serious emotional strength. Not sure I'd ever leave my house again if I lost my son.

I have three boys myself. Not a second taken for granted nor how lucky I am. Massive respect to this guy and his attitude. Turned something no parent wants to consider into a healing process for him and his family.

Such a genuinely nice guy Rob is. I shed a tear myself listening to him, thinking of my own kids.

I clicked to see The Rock cry but as a Rob fan I am glad I did. Beautiful story.

Lost my baby girl last year, one of the hardest challenges me and my wife ever faced together. And it made me feel even worse knowing that this was actually the second child my wife has lost so it was much harder on her than me. I've never cried so much in my life. Rip to my baby Jaleah and ja'mari, mommy and daddy loves and misses you both very much

I completely Feel Your Pain Sir I just lost My 3 year old Son 3 weeks ago My heart is broken for You 😢😢😢😢😢

Even the Rock himself would be disgusted by how cheaply his name has been used in the title about something as significant as the death of a child.

I lost my daughter Marie in 2021 and I still cry when I think of her which is a lot. It's natural to get upset when people talk about our loved ones we have lost.

Cruel world the illness has no time limit. Rest in peace little Angel.

My partner lost her 3yr old son also named Henry in 2010 in a car accident, the emotions Rob described are exactly that. You never get over it but you get through it, and yet you never forget. Sending you much love Rob and your family, May your sweet boy Henry rip.

I am so in awe of people who cope with such loss. I cannot imagine the pain you would feel as a parent on behalf of that poor child.

Rob has helped me so much in coming to terms with losing my boy, Bob, 2 years ago. He was 35, fit and active with a lovely partner Dani and two gorgeous children. Cancer got him, but I will treasure always their wedding in hospital and then we miraculously got him home to die 2 days later. Rock on Bob wherever you are. We miss you but we carry on. Dad x

This interview is devastating and so intimately honest. God Bless Rob Delany, the Delany family, and anyone else who has dealt with the loss and grief of losing a loved one.

When Rob said ‘Describe my Henry’… Leah and Rob, thank you for the strength and for the opportunity to learn from you! Your love for Henry can only inspire!

I've heard him talk about his son a few times and it makes me smile cause how happy he is describing him and makes me die inside when he talks about his death it's horrible no parent should Bury there child. It's even more difficult cause his wife gave birth around the same time as his son died.

The love he has for his son its beautiful

its about actions not words.. powerfull

"If I had to stop to go cry or puke I would"... As a father, the amount of absolute visceral emotional pain at just the THOUGHT of losing a child his hard, nevermind actually losing one. 🙏

What a Man 💔

Wishing you all the very best Rob, you tell the tragic story with amazing love. You’ll hate me for saying this, but you’re a special man. Love to beautiful, mischievous, wonderful Henry x

I love Rob Delaney. He’s so hilarious and kind.

Dwayne Johnson seems like a total legend... was lovely how he didn't start trying to get in on this interview, just showed total respect

Rob is a beautiful man,sincerest condolences to him and his family.

Rob isn't just strong he's so giving. What an amazing man and Henry is very proud you are and always will be his daddy.

I clicked on this video thinking it would be about The Rock. I didnt know it would hit me so hard. I have a 6 year old with brain cancer. 🙏 thank you Rob

The absolute strength it must take to even talk about this in general, nevermind on tv, shows unreal strength, you can tell the pride he felt for his son overrides the sorrow, and my absolute respect for his art being able to be transformed into writing something that will help others in that situation.

You can see the pain still in his face😪 RIP

This guy is brave & inspirational beyond description

Beautiful human being 🙏

Lost my son unexpectedly 10 months ago. Everything he says is correct. I went back to work after a week and half....i needed structure back to be able to function again. I took the time i needed away for affairs related to my son, i cried. I breathed. I just couldn't sit around and do nothing.

Honestly after watching this Rob's story, I realised am not the only person who had to go through same pain & stressful situation. When my Mom died of cancer next to me, I was enraged to the fact that she died from this disease, I was very sensitive & easily angered at friends & family members who started to question me how she died to the point that I assumed these people may accuse me of something or doubting my love toward my mother. I was worried so much about their opinions & even found it harder to ignore them to the point that I wished I could write about my feelings/ my story to alert these people that they were completely wrong & I should show them how much pains that we should live with this loss & that we are just the children who love our Mom. Thank you Rob for open my heart

Well done to the interviewer, she asked the questions so perfectly and respectfully ❤️

Dwayne on the One show is massive

Seeing the pain behind Rob's eye's brought a tear to my eye when talking about his son Henry. 😢

As someone who lost my daughter who was under a year old what he says is 100% true… there are no words. The people that made us food, just came to hang out or just take me for lunch or go for a drive is what made the difference. If anyone else recently lost their child you never get over it… you learn to live with it and feeling those emotions ain’t wrong. Keep moving forward 💪

No parent should have to bury a child. I respect that he said that his son died and not "passed away" or wherever sugar coat that people use. This guy is a real one.

What an absolute genuine warm guy…my heart goes out to Henry, who gave and received so much love during his short life.

I've not read the book and I'm crying...RIP Little Henry

This guy… wow. He really has got a beautiful soul.

Dwayne Johnson is a true human being. Take note of when they talk to him he is sure to put the focus back on Rob.

“ I was angry at first-I wanted everyone to know what our family went through-everyone asks what can they do for you-make a copy of their key and go do things for them, clean their house,cook them a meal,just sit and keep company…” All mostly accurate for what loosing my daughter (13yo)was like. I was angry, broken. Our family became incomplete and how should we go on without our Izzy! We have chosen to face our grief together as we cry,laugh, and keep Izzy alive in our everyday life even if we don’t talk about it much. We have a common knowledge of awareness of who we are. We are a family of 6, forever till we meet again💜

Lost my Daughter in August , I feel every little bit of what Rob says and feels here... my heart breaks for him ... no-one should have to go through this...

As a Father to the most amazing 2 year old little man I could ever dreamt of. I’m sitting here sobbing cause I just couldn’t imagine having to deal with that. He’s a stronger man than I am.

I didn't know Rob, but I have so much respect for him... He is a wonderful loving person. Peace for him and his family.

Way to go!! Dwayne and Rob were able to talk and show REAL emotions without it being label as not manly! Love it a lot!!💖💕

Lost my brother years ago, his Tumor was diagnosed too late, and the symptoms showed just a week before the diagnosis. Just like Rob's son, he was a funny, and lovable baby. And Two weeks later he was gone at just 1 year 10 months. Not something you get over.

When he talks about his son with such love and smiles when talking about him is the greatest tribute to him a father can do. Rob is a legend and one of the strongest people I’ve ever seen. Nothing but respect to him and his family ❤.

Rob, may your baby R.i.P. !!

How he's able to get through this with such positivity and calmness is an absolute credit to him.

As long as he's remembered he's never truly forgotten. Big ones to him for sharing his life story.

God Bless his soul in Heaven. I lost my father in July. He was a legend. God Bless this child in Heaven. Amen. One of the worst feelings in the world is losing a baby child, who hasn't has a chance to live life. God Bless. Amen.

This is too real for me, I have a 1 year old son and I can't even think about something like that without having tears in my eyes, actually I can't even talk about him without getting emotional, having children has changed me for the better I think, I'm so in touch with my emotions since having him

It’s so sad this story if someone was telling me about their son and that he wasn’t well and that he died, I’d have to try my best to hold my tears in. I get so emotional over a child’s death

I have a daughter who is in remission from cancer. It's horrible to see. This man is so strong.

Rob articulates himself so well that he pulls you in close with such brutal honesty….I wept the entire time and wished only to hug him and his wife so tightly 💔

To overcome a loss of someone that close and who you are meant to protect and raise is to continue to overcome. He's such a strong man for this. My Brother lost his first born son, I'm constantly trying to be as respectful of his space as possible.

I don't know how you come back from something like that, respect

No parent should ever lose a child. At this young age simply breaks your heart. So good to hear that he still has a lot of love in his heart. Stay strong Rob. And every other parent who goes or went through this. I hope i never will.

Now that's what I call a father.

I’m currently going through the same thing as his son. But Henry, at 2 years old, having to go through that is just incredible. What a brave child and brave family.

How absolutely beautiful, his boy helped open his heart.

This man just has amazing energy, that even in his own grief and with his own loss he still makes people around him smile and feel warm . I can’t imagine his pain but his words will help heal lives

Geez, who could blame him. I don't have any kids but I can imagine the hurt that comes with losing one must be horrible. Kids are my weakness and hearing him speak so lovingly about his son who passed made me teary eyed.

The way Rob is able to converse about such a personal issue with the level of stoicism that he does should be an inspiration to everyone to be open about what you’re dealing with. Talking about your problems and hardships is one of the best ways to persevere through them.

As a new father i cant imagine losing a child so young, you look at them and lose all self preservation and just want them to be happy.

That man is incredible, how he Carrie’s himself and handled tragedy. He is uplifting so many.
