LONDON - A British man, who became the oldest father of twins less than two years ago, has welcomed his 13th child at 72 and insists he wants even more children.
Richard Roden’s 26-year-old wife Lisa, who gave birth to twins Emily and Ruby, delivered another daughter Madison last month.
All three of the couple’s children were conceived naturally and great grandfather Roden said he has never taken Viagra.
The unlikely couple that lives in a three-bedroom house in Walsall, West Midlands, insisted they are soul mates despite the 46-year age gap between them.
Roden has seven daughters and three sons from two earlier marriages and said he would love to have a baby boy with Lisa.
Despite his virility, his insisted on being sterilized as they can barely afford to bring up their young brood.
“Sexually I’m the same as I was in my 20s but Lisa wanted to be sterilized and we agreed we had enough young children in the house,” the Daily Mail Roden as telling People magazine.
The grey-haired pensioner, who has suffered from bladder cancer, is already a grandfather of 36 and has 9 great grandchildren. (ANI)
