There've been at least a few actors in their old of age in Hollywood who've recently fathered children with younger girlfriends/wives, with Kelsey Grammer being one of the latest:

Kelsey Grammer has officially become a dad — again — at the age of 70.

The Frasier star announced he and his wife, Kayte Walsh, 46, recently welcomed a baby boy named Christopher during an appearance Monday on the Pod Meets World podcast.

This is the 70-year-old actor’s eighth child, and his fourth with Walsh.

Grammer told Boy Meets World actors Danielle Fishel, Will Friedle and Rider Strong that he and his wife “just had our fourth one, so it just became eight kids.” [...]

The Frasier star and Walsh got married in February 2011 in New York City, following his divorce from Real Housewives of Beverly Hills alum Camille Grammer, with whom he shares daughter Mason, 24, and son Jude, 21.

Grammer is also dad to his daughter Spencer, 42, whom he shares with ex-wife Doreen Alderman, and daughter Greer, 33, with ex Barrie Buckner.

He previously spoke about how his work as an actor has helped him become a great father.

“My children—my young children, older children—the happiest I ever am is if they’re all in the same room together,” Grammer told Variety in June of 2024. “My work has allowed me to be able to do that. I’ve been given this great experience. It’s been painful and challenging and hard and tragic—all those things. But boy, it’s a great life. And I want to pass that on to them.” [...]

Grammer’s not the only Hollywood actor above retirement age to recently announce becoming a father.

Al Pacino welcomed his newest child into the world, Roman Pacino, in June 2023 when he was 83, with his now ex-girlfriend Noor Alfallah. Roman is Pacino’s fourth child, and his first with Alfallah.

Robert De Niro, also Pacino’s close friend, had his seventh child at 79 years old.

Rolling Stones frontman Mick Jagger became an eight-time father at age 73 in 2016.

Seriously, I think it's great some of these actors are fathering children with younger wives/girlfriends, and considering how leftist deNiro's become over the years, it is rather surprising he's been willing to father several children even at his advanced age over the years. This in itself is a positive example they're setting, by bringing more children into the world at a time when birthrates are low, and it's a good example they're setting. I seriously believe everybody who wants to improve the world birthrate for the better should take their example as an idea direction, and help younger women worthy of becoming mothers give birth to more children. That, again, can help do something good if it helps improve birthrates in the western world. Who would've thought actors in leftist Hollywood could end up setting such a great example?
