He told OK! she supports him in everything he does. "She sees the loving angle in almost every situation. She's an extraordinary woman and I'm as blessed as I've ever been in my life."
As for having kids, he added, "Oh I think they're very excited about the idea of having a new addition to the family. They're very very cool about it. My son, Jude, especially. He's like, "When are the children coming?"
He commented to OK! on whether or not his son will live with him: "Well I don't know yet, we'll see." Although he didn't comment on the custody battle, he did indicate, "It's going to be a long drawn out thing and it'll be turgid and unpleasant I'm sure, but not on my side." He was, however, able to dish about Father's Day plans: "I'm going to spend it with the kids. I think we're going to have a barbeque this year."
