The Who frontman Roger Daltrey says he only discovered that he had fathered three more children after his 50th birthday.
Daltrey says that he was never told about their existence and their mothers gave them up for adoption. The three of them only contacted him after his 50th birthday and were born in the period between his divorce from first wife Jackie and marriage to his second wife Heather.
"They all came into my life after my 50th birthday," he revealed to the Mirror. "It was great - it's all worked out. They stay in touch and they're close, so that's great. I've tried to do my best about a situation that couldn't change because it happened a long time ago."
Roger's other children are, Simon, 55, with his first wife Jackie; Mathias, 50, with Swedish model Elisabeth Aronsson; and Rosie, 46, Willow, 43, and Jamie, 37, with his second wife, model Heather Taylor.
