Rod Stewart
Rod Stewart is as renowned for his daliances with attractive women as he is for his music, so it's no surprise that he's fathered seven children with five different women over the last four decades. The Stewart clan now consists of daughters Sarah, Kimberley, Ruby and Renee and sons Sean, Liam and Alistair. His current wife Penny Lancaster has made it no secret she would like more children, so watch this space.

Mel Gibson & Robyn Moore
Mel Gibson himself is one of eleven children, and it would seem he is hoping history will repeat itself. He and wife Robyn have one daughter, and six sons - Hannah, twins Edward and Christian, William, Louis, Milo and Thomas. Mel is also now a proud granddad, so it's a growing brood.

Frank Zappa & Adelaide Gail Sloatman
The late Frank Zappa didn't just produce a large family, he also had an extremely imaginatively named tribe of offspring. His four children (two boys and two girls) are called Moon Unit, Dweezil, Ahmet Emuukha Rodan and Diva Thin Muffin Pigeen. When asked about these name choices Frank insisted his kids would have more trouble in life with their surname.

Jack Nicholson
This Oscar-winning actor is notorious for his inability to settle down, and he has reportedly bedded over 2,000 women. It's therefore no surprise that he has fathered six children to five different women (one for every Golden Globe statue he has won). He has three daughters, (Jennifer, Honey and Lorraine) and two sons (Caleb and Raymond). He also had an affair with Donald Trump's real estate agent Jenine Gourin, with whom he has a 'secret' love child.

When asked to judge the 1980 Miss World competition, he met and fell in love with his current wife and former Miss World, Wilnelia Merced, with whom he finally had a son. Didn't he do well?

He has three girls from his marriage to the late Paula Yates, the imaginatively named Fifi Trixibelle, Peaches Honeyblossom Michelle Charlotte Angel Vanessa and Pixie.

Two-time world heavyweight boxing champion George Foreman practically has his own football team, with a brood of ten. He has five daughters Michi, Freeda, Georgetta, Natalie and Leola and five sons, all of whom are called George. He distinguishes one son from one another using nicknames such as Monk, Big Wheel and Little George...incidentally Monk is now his business manager!
