Jamie Redknapp has shared his father Harry’s reaction to his decision to have another son back in 2021, at the age of 49, with his wife Frida.
Speaking to The Times, the former footballer revealed that his father’s response to the announcement was abrupt.
“Are you sure? People will think you’re a grandad,” the I’m A Celebrity winner told his son.
On the challenge of having another child after a long time, Jamie told the publication: “Even with six children between us, we’d forgotten so much. But he’s so much fun.”
The football pundit also spoke about the experience of bringing a newborn into a large blended family.
He said: “It’s never easy when you’re blending the family and all of a sudden another one comes in. You’ve got to be very aware of everyone’s feelings, but the kids love Rapha. I describe him as the glue that brings us all together.”
Jamie continued: “I mean, it’s never going to be perfect: you’ve got lots of personalities all mixed together. But everyone gets on. Whether you’ve got a family that’s blended or not, there are still arguments.”
