Uncle Jessie became daddy in 2018 when he welcomed his first child, Billy, at the age of 54.

“I thought it was beyond me to have a kid and a great wife, but it’s given me a reason to live," he told People. "Life is in session now.”

While he had his eldest daughter, Ireland, before the age of 50, the kid train wasn't over.

Since meeting wife, Hilaria, they've gone on to have six children together: Edu, Romeo Alejandro David, Leonardo Ángel Charles, Rafael Thomas, Carmen Gabriela, and newborn María Lucía Victoria.

She adopted her first child, Dexter, a daughter, at the age of 50. Then, she adopted a son, Duke, a few years later.

Adoption has been good for the star, as she's called it “the most completely humbling experience that I’ve ever had."

The girls join the four adult children he has from previous relationships.

While he played a father so well in Father of the Bride and Cheaper by the Dozen, he didn't become a dad in real life until he was 67.

This was with his wife, Anne, who's significantly younger than him.

"Oh, it’s fantastic—you have all the time in the world," he told Australia's Daily Telegraph.

"You’re all set and secure in life, and you’re not building your career, so you have a lot of time."

Since there's a 25-year age gap between the actor and his wife, Catherine Zeta Jones, Douglas was bound to have a child after 50.

The Taxi Driver star is a doting father to six children.

He had his youngest, Helen, via surrogate when he was 68 and his ex-wife, Grace Hightower, was 56. To put that into perspective, his eldest daughter, Drena, was 40 at the time.

The rocker had eight kids with five different mothers.

Since he had his son, Aiden, at the age of 66, and his daughter Kimberly had a baby six months later, Aiden became quite the young uncle.

"It was the nicest thing that's ever happened to me," he told People TV’s Jess Cagle about having kids. "But it happens to be true."

Back when the Die Hard actor was married to Demi Moore, they had three daughters together.

But he wasn't done with kids quite yet. After he fell in love with his wife, Emma Heming, they had two children.

Two years later, they welcomed their second girl, Evelyn, in 2014.

"Being a father at this point in my life is great," he told the Mirror UK. "I feel like I have the same amount of love I used to have, if not more."

Together, they have two young sons, Charlie and River. The star has expressed being happy that he waited.

"It feels great to do it right now, because all the things I'm considering are perfectly suited to the big questions and challenges of having kids, and what you want to expose them to," he said.
