Music producer Jack White has become a father for the seventh time.
His wife Rafaella gave birth to a healthy daughter on Monday.
The 83-year-old is one of the oldest celebrity fathers in the world.
«We never expected it anymore. (…) I believe God wanted it that way. It all happened quite naturally. We just made love,” comments Jack White the birth of his daughter Melody to the “Bild” newspaper. At the age of 83, the Cologne music producer became a father once more – Angelina Melody is his seventh child. He already has a four-year-old son, Max, with his fourth wife Rafaella (39).
The joy of having offspring in the White household is great: “The girl is in perfect health. Rafaella and I cried with happiness.” His wife gave birth to the child via cesarean section on Monday morning. While others his age are enjoying retirement, for Papa White it’s time to change diapers and take out the stroller once more. According to Wikipedia, White is one of the oldest celebrity fathers in the world, he is in third and fifth place – he became a father once at the age of 78 and now at the age of 83. Also stars like Al Pacino (at 83) and Robert De Niro (79) became fathers once more in old age – De Niro now also has seven children.
“Our children have loving parents”
White, on the other hand, sees himself well-armed once morest possible criticism: “Of course there will now be those who will tear their mouths apart regarding the fact that I am too old and whether I might still be there when the child starts school. But I can’t send the child back,” White said at the time when the couple announced the pregnancy. And it continues: “Obviously God wanted it that way. The nice thing is that our children will have a very good time, will be well looked following and will have two very loving parents.”
Jack White, whose real name is Horst Nussbaum, is one of the most successful German music producers with more than a billion records sold and over 1,000 self-produced songs. Born in Cologne in 1940, he initially started a football career at a young age. In the early 1960s, White played in the Cologne league team. He achieved worldwide fame, among other things, with his hit “Looking for Freedom,” which was then sung by legend David Hasselhoff.
