Baby Siri is the first child Jones has had with Anna Soderstrom, his 26-year-old Swedish girlfriend of five years, the British broadcaster noted.

"I don't think people who have children are acting selfishly or unselfishly," he told The Radio Times.

"Having a child who'll be loved, to parents who love each other, is the important thing," he said. "I've a reasonable chance of living another 20 years, and hope I do, so Siri will be in her 20s."

Asked how it feels to be a new dad again at his age, Jones said he has "yet to discover how I like having another child."
