Ryan Reynolds has proven that adjusting to being a new Dad is no easier for celebrities than it is for the average man.

The actor stars in a hilarious video for GQ magazine, where he can be seen trying to assemble an Ikea cot.

His unsuccessful attempts lead to expletive-filled mutterings and a pleading phone call to the manufacturer for help.

“I’m just wondering if there’s a representative, or five, that can come by and make this happen for me?”, he tells them after saying under his breath: “What’s Swedish for f*** you?”

Reynolds, 38, has a baby daughter James with his wife, actress Blake Lively, 28.

In the interview with GQ, he revealed how he recently removed a close friend from his life after discovering the friend had tried to sell pictures of his daughter to the media.
